Food Review: CUK Bakery & Cafe (Bandar Rimbayu)

CUK Bakery & Café, with CUF short for Cikgu Una, is located in Bandar Rimbayu, Telok Panglima Garang, Selangor. The moment I stepped in, I was drawn to the ambiance. Though the space is limited - it’s a single lot, rather compact, with minimal space between tables - the rustic décor, cleanliness, and cozy setting make it warm and inviting. What made it even more endearing was the staff’s friendly nature. Their genuine smiles and welcoming attitude added to the comfort as I waited for my lunch companion.

Easy Lamb in Soy Sauce Recipe | Flavorful & Quick to Make

Mutton is usually the go-to in my household (MUTTON & LAMB RENDANG RECIPES), but every now and then, lamb takes the spotlight. Wondering what sets them apart? Lamb comes from young sheep, making it tender and mild, while mutton, from older sheep, has a richer, gamier taste and requires longer cooking. That said, I prefer pressure-cooking lamb - it speeds up the process while ensuring soft, succulent meat (SIMPLE & HEARTY LAMB SOUP RECIPE).

Kopitiam Number One Rimbayu: Hawker Food Worth Trying?

It was yet another recommendation for us to try a different Kopitiam - Kopitiam Number One Rimbayu (Teluk Panglima Garang, Selangor), a branch of Kopitiam Number One Seri Muda. Like most kopitiams in Malaysia, this one was located on a corner lot. Parking was a breeze, especially since we arrived early, just before 11:30 AM, to secure a table. As soon as we walked in, my handphone camera was already in action, capturing the scene (PENANG MAINLAND FOOD ADVENTURES).

Easy Pumpkin Barley Dessert Recipe

Back in the day, I loved baking and making all sorts of desserts. But over the years, I’ve come to appreciate simplicity - desserts that don’t take hours to prepare (DURIAN SWEET PORRIDGE). More importantly, I want something that can be stored in the fridge for a couple of days, ready whenever I crave a little sweetness.

It’s hard to resist desserts (CHINESE EASY DESSERT - LENG CHEE KANG), but making them yourself means you control the sugar - whether you prefer a little, none at all, or just the natural sweetness from ingredients like pumpkin. Pumpkin Barley Dessert, or Barley Pumpkin (EASY PUMPKIN SOUP), is all about simplicity. With just a few budget-friendly ingredients and a gentle simmer, you’ll have a comforting, effortless treat.

Spicy Eggs Recipe: Resepi Telur Balado Indonesia

Eggs again? Why not! This time, let’s spice things up with Telur Balado, an Indonesian-style spicy egg dish. Think of it as a sambal-infused delight - bold, fiery, and packed with flavor (EGG SAMBAL RECIPE). But of course, Ms. Nava’s twist makes it even better.

The star here is the Balado sauce, a versatile Indonesian sambal that works beyond just eggs (EASIEST EGG FRIED RICE RECIPE). Use it to stir-fry veggies, coat crispy fried fish, or even jazz up poultry. Got more ideas? Go for it (SURAKARTA - INDONESIA'S HEARBEAT TRAVEL).
