Appreciation and love for all the uncles/ aunties/ pakciks/ makciks who toil to bring yumminess into our lives :)....

Ah, Friedchillies - can't imagine that it's been around since 1998!
(How times flies...)

FuelLed by passion for all things yum, it started off as a website/ forum and has now evolved into a mix media powerhouse covering everything from the web to tv.
(Wow!)

  1. i wonder if they'll expand the categories in future years. it's soooooo unfair that assam laksa gets a mention, but my much-beloved, much-desired curry laksa doesn't, heheh :D

  2. LOL.
    Well, wouldn't mind a few sweet categories too! - Ice Kacang, Cendol... etc.
