Food Diary

Simple buckwheat loaf.

Posted on June 10, 2020 by chefswifediary

Joint collaboration with Mr. Chef Mr. Chef has been making bread at home since February and he is determined not to stop just because of a diet mission.  We enjoy bread very much for breakfast. I like it with jam spread and he prefers it with peanut butter spread. The thought of giving it up was…

Bitter chocolate sirt-tart.

Posted on June 9, 2020 by chefswifediary

Joint collaboration with Mr. Chef Mr. Chef and I love sweet things. By treating ourselves with dessert everyday, it feels like we are not on a diet. We had 2 weeks of sirt-chocolate cake, a change is like a welcome treat! This sirt-tart which Mr. Chef is about to share is very rich but comes with…

Sirtfood chicken pie.

Posted on June 3, 2020 by chefswifediary

Joint collaboration with Mr. Chef The goal of this diet is not to really go on a diet. Instead, we aim to change our eating habits and lose weight at the same time without cutting out food that we love. Eating salads everyday and in small portions can be quite boring and demoralising. We are more…

Sirt-rich meatball Marinara.

Posted on June 2, 2020 by chefswifediary

Joint collaboration with Mr. Chef Today was a clearing out of what we had left in the chiller and seeing as we haven’t been eating pasta so much on the diet, we thought why not. Not only is it wholesome and filling but this is extremely healthy too. Coming in at under 600 calories it…

Red wine chocolate sirt-cake.

Posted on June 2, 2020 by chefswifediary

Joint collaboration with Mr. Chef “Being on a diet isn’t easy.” This is all what we thought. No fried food, salad everyday, and definitely no cake. Wrong!  This cake that we are about to share ticks all the boxes and believe it, it is only 231 calories per portion.  Gluten free and full of sirt-rich foods…

The miracle sirt-juice.

Posted on June 1, 2020 by chefswifediary

It has been two weeks since my last post on Sirtfood journey begins. You might be thinking if my motivation of shredding 3kg still hooks. No doubt, it’s easy to share any remedy almost immediately just like any other bloggers. The question is, does “sirtfood” really works and deserves our commitment? Mr. Chef and I…

Sirtfood journey begins.

Posted on May 22, 2020 by chefswifediary

Lockdown journey has been quite a tricky one. Coming to three months now from #socialdistanding to #stayalert, public is advised to continue working from home and only travel when needed. Whilst some have learned to multitask, juggled between working and home-caring kids, many have taken the opportunity to learn new skills and explore mini adventures…

Lockdown gain.

Posted on May 17, 2020 by chefswifediary

Since February 2020 when lockdown was about to begin, many were caught up in panic buy of sanitizers, face masks, gloves, cleaning detergents and not forgetting, the infamous toilet rolls tug of war across the world. The hoarding of food supply had also left many wondered if food has its expiry date. Was it a…

Confession of a chef’s wife.

Posted on May 11, 2020June 20, 2024 by chefswifediary

Rewinding back to 7 years ago today when I first met my husband, didn’t I forecasted that our first date would transformed into an ‘happily-ever-after’ tag. He wasn’t a chef by profession back then. Well, he was before we met. Not until in 2016 when we tied the knot and immediately our lives took a…
