I know Facebook’s a big thing nowadays, but i didn’t really use it much only until recently. I’ve created a group for ladyironchef.com, so if you are on facebook, why not joined us there?
Make friends with like-minded people who are all into food, and it’s an additional channel for me to spread the words on any upcoming events on LIC. Do spread the words around, and let your friends know too!
See you there!

Now back to business, ladyironchef is again, proud to tell you that my food outing event is here again! I know i’ve mentioned after my last outing at Tetsu that i’ll do another one during August, but it had been a few hectic months for me until now. So sorry for the delay!
To all share-readers of ladyironchef
I have updated the list of restaurants that I’m interested in, and also included the links of the places that i have been to for the month of October. You can view it by clicking on “Gourmet Roll” tab at the top of the page!
October has been a long and difficult month for me, and this is the last crucial stage. After this, November beckons, and it’ll be a new beginning. I’ll like to apologise for the food outing events which i had mentioned, but did not materalised because of time constraint.
There will be LIC events coming up in November, food and dessert outings, details will be out soon, so do stay tune for it. Another thing which excites me will be learning to bake. That will also have to wait until November. Hope you guys eat well, and if there’s any enquiries or feedback, do leave a comment or send a email to [email protected]
Cheers
Brad
With more and more of our heritage hawkers getting in their ages, it is difficult for them to continue whip out the delicious food that they have been doing everyday for so many years. And being a hawker isn’t a glamorous job, compared to being a banker, lawyer, teacher or other professionals. Therefore, most of the heritage hawkers don’t any successor, and we risk losing out all the good food, which our future younger generations will not live to eat.
Just beside the “old-school” Love confectionery at Alexander Village which I just recommended, there’s another one by the name of Chinatown Tai Chong Kok Confectionery.
The constant upgrading and renovation of our heartlands, together with the ageing of the older chefs will mean that many delicious food will be soon extinct, and forever gone from us. We have seen many of your favourite childhood hawker stalls, and the old-school bakeries disappearing from our sight.
The Chinese celebrated festival is here again, it is this time of the year where we can see restaurants, hotels, bakeries busy promoting and selling their moon cakes. And this year we have seen more new varieties entering the market, this can only be good news to us.
I have been looking for nice kway chap for a while now, but I can’t seem to find them though.My latest hunt brought me to Tiong Bahru Market, a quick glance around resulted in two stores selling kway chap, and i chose this store over the other because this store had a slightly longer queue than the other on that day.
