There are more and more restaurants opened in the St-Henri neighborhood. On the bustling streets of Notre-Dame, right across my favorite Middle Eastern restaurant Sumac, lies Rosetta – a charming new Italian & French bakery and patisserie.

[Recipe] Worth the Wait – Whole Wheat Cinnamon Buns

Cinnamon buns (or rolls)... How should I begin? It the food that I can have it any time of the day, breakfast, snacks, afternoon snack or even as dessert. I have a soft spot for cinnamon buns, because it was the first western "dessert", as I would used to refer it, I had when I was a kid. It was also my first encounter with cinnamon, and since then, it's my favorite spice. Nonetheless, traditional cinnamon buns are high in sugar and calories, not to mention the icing. This no-butter and no-refined sugar recipe not only cut down the calories, but also incorporated some fibre.

[Recipe] “Nut” the Ordinary Tart – Nutty No Bake Kiwi Tart

Kiwi is one of my favorite fruits, and I have to have one every single morning. I guess most of the people would think that kiwi comes from New Zealand. In fact, kiwi was originated from China, and was known as the "Chinese gooseberry"! Besides consuming it alone, kiwi is perfect for baking or cooking too!

My friend and I had been following Tasty for a while. The videos that they made for each recipe seem so simple that anyone can do it. Therefore, we decided that it is time to try it out!

[Recipe] The Chinese Mochi – “Tang Yuan” with Sweet Red Bean Soup

Winter solstice is one of the most important festivals celebrated by the Chinese. On the day of winter solstice, we have to make and eat “tang yuan”, glutinous rice balls, as a symbolism of reunion, wholesome, and I was used to be told that I can add one year of my age after eating tang yuan…

[HK] Classic High Tea in Classy Mandarin Oriental

In my previous Le Parloir post, I have expressed how much I love high tea. It has become a tradition whenever I visit Hong Kong. In case you don't know, Hong Kong was colonized by the Britain, hence a huge part of their culture is strongly influenced by the British. Locating in the Clipper Lounge of Mandarin Oriental, the afternoon tea set is the best one I've ever had so far in Hong Kong (price-wise is reasonable too!).
