Introducing Mookata Set from Chang Thai

A quaint authentic Thai Cafe in Bishan; whom never fail to offer the best and freshest food.

I was delighted to be back to taste their newly-introduced Mookata set. What is a Mookata anyway?

It is a grill hot plate surrounded by  steamboat moat from Thailand. 

Heard so much from friends and the media on Mookata but seriously this was my maiden attempt at Mookata.

Perhaps it was due to a steamboat incident happened a decade ago where the oil from the hotplate popped onto my nose and left me scarred for months. I was totally traumatised and swear off steamboat for years. 


Mookata is rather different. No oil was used, the fats came from the meat. Much healthier and definitely safer unlike the typical hot plate steamboat. Water is poured on the lower part of the plate, hence will not end up having oil popping all over.

See how we use the fats to go over the entire skillet pot. 

A set for 2 pax cost S$39, which includes generous serving of ingredients.





How can we do without the chilli? The chilli sauce is a special concoction from Chang Thai. However if you want it to have more stronger flavouring, add in the garlic to the chilli sauce. Or if you are into spiciness, add the small chillies which I guarantee can surely 'numb' you. 

For me, just adding garlic will do.


The happy girl savouring her mookata.


A refreshing Lemongrass was a good choice for a Hotpot session. Freshly extracted and brewed from natural Lemongrass, it was a must-order.


My must-order. Mango sticky rice. Sweet slices of Mango with glutinuous sticky rice and a generous spread of freshly squeezed coconut milk. So heavenly. Burp burp.

Oinkeebabe is Back!


Yeah I am back! It has indeed been more than a month since I blogged. If you followed my Instagram feeds, you would notice I had been travelling back to back. Great to be back home, the familarities and conveniences on this little island which we always take for granted. Though I am still missing the food, the sceneries from my travels. 

This December is also a time for gatherings and parties, lots of food and booze. Watch out for my upcoming blogs on the festive offerings from my dear sponsors and how I get myself ready for the upcoming parties. 

Wohoo it is getting exciting! 

Enjoy the festivities, spread the love to all your dearies and stride through the remaining 2014 with lots of memorable moments. 

Loving this shot with my AnneLene at Hong Kong Disneyland on our recent family holiday.
