- That the Eiffel Tower is only 15 minutes away on foot. Seems so silly we discovered this after more than 6 months in Paris. So once or twice a week we take a stroll to the Eiffel to walk off our dinner.
- That not only is a Tefal frying pan better than a house brand pan, the food tastes better too. I bought a Tefal pan yesterday after trying out cheap Monoprix pans for about 6 months. After Jo fried the fish on the new pan, I thought it tasted different and asked her. She said it wasn’t a psychological thing, the fish actually tasted better. Wow.
- That pancakes are called ‘blinis’ here. And they come in mini, medium and large blinis. The large are the size of MacDonald pancakes and the mini is the diameter of 2x S$1 coins.
- That Tabasco is a good substitute for chili sauce when I don’t want to travel halfway across the city to Chinatown. Better for the stomach too coz it doesn’t make my stomach go woozy like some other chili sauces.
- That mint leaves go well with fried rice and butter prawns.
- That Honey Nougat Magnum ice-cream is da bomb.
Siao liao. Jo and I are putting on weights.

even better than tefal pans with all their Teflon coating are SOLID stainless steel pans. They heat up faster and more evenly.
Try brands like WMF (German). They've been on sale in singapore lately.
But with stainless steel, should season pan before use... said to be safter than teflon ... and super heavy ... just like the way you like your cameras, Wes.
I don't see many chefs with Tefal in the house.
How are you guys, anyways? Long time no chat.
