Now, let’s get into the heart of a Peranakan favourite—the Ayam Buah Keluak. 🥘🖤
In this episode of Cooking with Grandma, we’re learning how to enjoy this the right way.
Grandma reminds us that because the gravy is so rich and earthy, you simply cannot eat it without a proper bowl of steamed rice. The rice balances the intense flavours perfectly, and it’s how we’ve always enjoyed it at home. 🍚✨
Aunty Vivien also shows us how to get to the good part—scooping out every bit of that creamy, nutty paste from inside the shell. It’s a slow, deliberate process, but that’s the beauty of our food. It’s meant to be savoured, not rushed! 👵🥣
Come by and enjoy a proper meal with us soon. Aunty will have the rice ready for you! 🏮✨

There’s nothing quite like the sound of laughter and the clinking of porcelain to make a house feel like a home. 🏮✨
At our Tanjong Pagar shophouse, we’ve made sure every corner feels like a warm embrace, where you can slow down and truly connect with the people who matter. But Aunty knows that some days, the best "gathering" is a quiet one on your own sofa! 🛋️🧡
Whether you’re coming to see us or having us come to you, the comfort of heritage is always ready for you.

What is a Peranakan feast without a little bit of fire and a whole lot of variety? 🌶️✨
In this episode of Cooking with Grandma, we’re talking about the "must-haves" on every traditional table. Aunty says it’s hard to pick just one favourite because everyone has their own "liking," but there’s one thing that is simply non-negotiable: our Sambal Belacan. 🥣🔥 It’s the soul of the meal—that spicy, pungent dip that brings everything to life!
Grandma Vivien also shares a little bit of our history. Did you know that Peranakan culture has a touch of British influence? 🇬🇧 Because many went to English schools, our tables are filled with a wonderful variety—from comforting soups to fresh veggies and hearty main dishes. It’s all about having a bit of everything to keep everyone happy! 🥘🧡
At the end of the day, a full table means a full heart. 👵✨
Come by and experience a true Peranakan feast for yourself. Aunty will make sure the sambal is ready! 🍚😋

Aunty has been busy in the kitchen today, making sure the Nonya noodles are just right—moist, flavorful, and cooked with all the patience it deserves. It’s one of those dishes that tastes best when shared over stories and laughter at the table. 🧡

Aunty is back again, and she has so much more to share with you! 👵✨
This time, we’re stepping out of the kitchen for a moment to talk about something very close to our hearts—Peranakan etiquette and the beautiful culture of sharing a meal. 🥣🧡
In a traditional home, the dining table is where the strongest bonds are formed. It’s about more than just food; it’s about the respect between the old and the young. Did you know that the younger ones always wait for the elders to be seated first? That is our way. 🥢🙏
Whether we are married or living far away, we always come back for that weekly makan session. Because at the end of the day, food tastes best when it’s shared with the people who matter most. 🏠💕

If you ask any Peranakan family, they’ll tell you: a good Ayam Buah Keluak is the true test of a kitchen. 🥣✨
This dish is the star of our Cooking with Grandma series for a reason. There are no shortcuts here! From scrubbing the earthy nuts to hand-mincing the filling and simmering it all until the chicken is perfectly tender, it requires immense patience and heart. It’s a taste that has been passed down through generations, and we are so proud to keep that tradition simmering for you. 🖤🥘
Rich, nutty, and deeply comforting—it’s just the thing to share with the people who matter most.
Come by and enjoy a proper meal with us. Aunty has the rice ready! 🍚😋

There is nothing quite like the scent of tamarind wafting from the kitchen to wake up the appetite. 🥣✨
Our Pork Ribs Assam is a true labour of love. We simmer the ribs slowly until the meat is tender and every bite is infused with that signature rich, tangy gravy. It’s a soulful dish that reminds Aunty of the long afternoons spent in grandmother's kitchen, where nothing was ever rushed. 🏠🧡
It’s just the right balance of spicy and sour—perfect with a big bowl of steamed rice. Don't be shy, go ahead and take an extra scoop of gravy, ah! 🍚😋

Comfort in a bowl, the Nonya way 💛🥬
Our Chap Chye Masak Titek is slow-braised with mixed vegetables, glass noodles, and fragrant spices, gently simmered until everything soaks up that rich, savoury gravy. Soft, hearty, and full of depth — this is the dish that quietly holds the whole table together. 🍲✨

Watch as Aunty roasts, pounds, and balances the flavours till it’s shiok — smoky belacan, fresh chilli, a squeeze of calamansi… simple ingredients, but must get the feeling right.
Come, learn this must-have alongside her and see why every meal needs a good sambal on the side. 🍽️✨
