White tea, gold standard
One fun way to add those anti-oxidants to your diet is with Clipper's raspberry-flavoured organic white tea. The tea brews up a pale gold and the berry flavour is quite beguiling.
Flavour of the day
Sour cherries, chilli and chocolate make for strange bedfellows but it all works somehow.
I say tomato
Mini plum tomatoes, grown in Malaysia's Genting Highlands, come in red, a deep dusky pink and bright yellow, and instantly perk up any dish.
Calling Bordeaux wine fans!
Enjoy a gourmet dinner with fine Bordeaux wines like Pomerol and St Emillion at Pan Pacific Hotel's Global Kitchen restaurant on Tue, March 11.

Viva Italia!
While pizza could well be the poster child for Italian food, there is, of course, a lot more to choose from. And Pizza Hut wants to introduce all of Italy to its customers.
Get crabby and tuck into this spread
Crabs are as big a Singaporean obsession as durians, and they'll be featured in a mega spread at the Ellenborough Market Cafe at Swissotel Merchant Court.
Choc fusion
Is KitKat the new Pocky, with an explosion of flavours every so often?
Salt haven
Mined from ancient salt deposits in the Himalayan mountains and with no chemicals added, this salt has a clean, sharp taste and is good to cook with.
Minty fresh
I'm not kidding when I say I drink this peppermint tea morning, noon and night.
Jar rules
Profiteroles, or little cream puffs, seem to be the rage this Christmas and here's an interesting way to eat them - from a reusable glass jar. X'mas Survival Guide
