Daisy’s Simple Guide to Home Composting in KL!

categories: Eating In, Food Allergy Tips

Dearest Friends,

I’ve been asked quite a few times about how I do composting in my apartment, so I thought I’d put together a simple one-pager to share with you what I’ve done and learned so far in my urban composting journey.

Apartment composting is tricky: you don’t have the soil to put the compost into, nor do you have easy access to leaves and other dry organic matter that is needed for the composting process.

Nonetheless, success is possible! It may take little more time, but it certainly can be done!

Enjoy, and feel free to share. The more of us composting, the better!

Peace,

Amazing find: Avocado Hummus!

categories: Eating Out, Food Allergy Tips, International

Hello again friends!

Today, I wanted to share with you that I found what can only be described as the serendipitous marriage of two glorious foods. Avocado and hummus, brought together by the galaxies because… well… they were just *meant* to be together.

 

The Glorious Meeting of Two Beauteous Foods - Avocado Hummus!

I found it at Semsom, a Lebanese restaurant, with some other pretty awesome Middle Eastern fusion food. They also have standard fare, such as falafel, labneh, and baba ghanoush, which is (surprise, surprise!) pretty delicious too!

Avocado hummus goes amazingly well with falafel, by the way! There can never be too much chickpeas in one’s diet. 🙂

Note: While many falafels are safe, do check with the waitstaff if they have been mixed with wheat flour and/or if they have been fried in contaminated oil.

Falafel, made from chickpeas, is also food suitable for GF-ers!

Check out Semsom’s website, look at their creative menu, and pay them a visit!
