The beginning...
告子说: “凡是人的生命，不离两件大事：饮食、男女” - - “Appetite for food and sex is nature.”
This, of course is a blog all about food that I cooked. An attempt for colourful combination of ingredients. Food that hopefully arouses your appetitie to make, to taste and to experience something different everyday.
The original Only Nature: foodporn started on the 26th October 2009. The main reason to start this blog is to record all various food that I have cooked for myself or for my friends. Quite a lot of the food that I have made during the last (almost) 2 years were challenges I set for myself to learn new cooking techniques such as bread making, general baking and some of my favourite Malaysian/ Asian food.
This blog also allows me to explore food photography. How to take pictures of colourful and appetising food.
Now with the new look, I am hoping to refine and re-organise some of my original postings and make it a better food blog.
About me...I was trained as an architect, which is something I still love doing. I started cooking when I was about 10 years old. Even now, I vividly remember my grandmother showing me how to dry-fry black beans over the charcoal stove. As I stood beside her watching the beans hitting the wok, their sound changed from a dull rustling to a lively high "tinging" pitch. A light dry smell, like burnt coffee, filled the kitchen.
My aim is to cook appetising, yet humble, food that satisfies not only our taste buds and our stomachs, but also our eyes and imagination. I hope to use this blog to show how simple, affordable ingredients can be easily transformed into delicious and beautiful dishes for daily meals.
Finally but slowly utilising my cooking skills commercially. Now I am working as a part-time savoury chef at the Real Patisserie Kemptown. A really great place to work and the "REAL" Patisserie does means REAL. Everything is prepare from scratch. Generous and real ingredients for all the quiches and other savoury food. I like the idea of being honest with the food they sell....
