Description: For as long as I've known, I've enjoyed eating eggs. It wasn't until later in life that I started eating eggs over easy, soft and medium boiled, and cooking nicer and smoother scrambled eggs. For too long, I was only exposed to overcooked and rubbery eggs. Little did I know... My favourite still, though, is the classic Asian comfort food combination of spam and eggs. Refer to my spam and egg noodles design as an example. Anyway, how do you like your eggs?
Description: Who isn't a sucker for pizza? I am partial to a good old Canadian pizza with pepperoni and mushrooms, but I love a classic margherita as well. I am a sucker for some oozy cheese and am salivating as I'm writing this. I wish I could say I've tried all the types of pizza listed here, but alas, I am not so lucky. Maybe one day when I'm retired from this exhausting career on the frontline and have the time and energy to travel across the globe.
Description: Growing up in an Asian household, we still had our fair share of cream of mushroom soup. It's a foolproof delicious sauce for pastas and it's delicious even on rice. Dare I say I've even added a few drops of Maggi sauce to my cream of mushroom pasta and rice dishes to liven up the dish? You may raise your eyebrow at me, but it is absolutely delicious. I've tried cream of chicken, cream of broccoli, and other types of creamy soups, but nothing compares to good old cream of mushroom. Holla to my cream of mushroom lovers - share your love of this soup with this design.
Description: If you like rice and rice dishes from all over the world, I hope you appreciate this design made up with the names of international rice dishes. I myself am partial to fried rice, sushi, and sticky rice. Any time I try to be good and eat less carbs, I just end up right back eating rice.
Description: An homage to my dear salmon sashimi. Now you can profess your undying love too. I still remember when I was first introduced to sushi and sashimi, and how apprehensive I was to try salmon sashimi. It took time graduating from basic California rolls, to spicy salmon rolls (I have a design for this too) and finally slowly moving onto salmon sashimi. Once I got into salmon sashimi, I never looked back. It stays as a staple in my Japanese restaurant and takeout orders and I will never tire of it. You too can advertise your love for salmon sashimi.
Description: This one is for the chefs, cooks, and home cooks out there. One of my favourite cooking shows of all time is Top Chef - it is so well done and introduced me to so many great names and it's how I discovered Anthony Bourdain when he appeared on one of the episodes as a guest judge. From there, I binged No Reservations for months. Anyways, this one is for the people who enjoy making good food.

Description: Share your love of pasta. What is your favourite type of Italian pasta dish? I think hands down mine would be linguini or spaghetti carbonara and a classic meat lasagna. I still dream of the amazing pasta noodles I had when I visited Italy many years ago. What a dream it was, hope to go back again someday. And when I was pregnant with one of my kids, I still remember frequenting an amazing Italian restaurant during my lunch time with my coworkers. And I would order those same 2 dishes above over and over again. It made my pregnant tummy very happy.
Description: If you love Asian noodles, this is an essential design to own. What is your favourite type of Asian noodle dish? I like way too many Asian noodle dishes including beef rice noodles with black bean sauce, Singapore stir fried vermicelli, ramen noodles with tonkotsu broth, etc. If it were up to me, I could eat noodles and sushi all day long.
Description: This is a trio of three Hong Kong dishes involving egg that I absolutely LOVE. Egg tarts, scrambled egg sandwiches, and luncheon meat and egg with instant noodles. Egg tarts are a Chinese bakery staple, and the scrambled egg sandwich with soft silky scrambled egg and noodles are very common in Hong Kong style cafes (cha chaan teng). If you know, you definitely know.
Chinese Egg Tart, Scrambled Egg Sandwich, and Luncheon Meat and Egg Instant Noodles Socks

Description: I’ve always loved Chinese egg tarts, especially the ones with the flaky crust over the ones with the crumbly crust. The egg custard is just delectable. Portuguese egg tarts are not so bad either. Whenever I go to an Asian supermarket, I have to resist the urge to bring some home. Anyway, here is another ode to a a Chinese treat.
Description: I will always be partial to salmon sashimi, but tuna sashimi pretty much ranks up there as well. Which type of sashimi are you partial to? This design is also a great gift idea for that best friend in your life. Even better if you like to go out and eat sushi together, because that's what good friends do, right?
