What is a proper Peranakan feast without the absolute essentials? 🏮✨

In this episode of Cooking with Grandma, Aunty Vivien sits down to enjoy her favourite Nyonya lunch spread—featuring deeply flavored Ayam Buah Keluak, savory Babi Pong Tay, and overnight Chap Chye. But as any true Peranakan will tell you, a table full of slow-cooked dishes is nothing without two non-negotiable items: a squeeze of fresh lime over robust Sambal Belacan and a piping hot bowl of steamed rice!

Is your mouth watering yet? 🤤 Come enjoy an authentic feast with us at our Tanjong Pagar shophouse or order it directly to your home tonight.

In a world full of fleeting food trends, true heritage is something you can always taste. For 31 years, The Blue Ginger has anchored itself in the heart of Tanjong Pagar, meticulously preserving the soul of Peranakan cuisine.

At the core of every unforgettable Nyonya dish is the rempah—the fragrant, complex spice paste that requires hours of patient hand-chopping, pounding, and slow-stirring until the oil beautifully separates. No shortcuts, no compromises. Just the timeless, deeply comforting flavours passed down through generations.

Whether you want to escape the modern CBD rush and dine within the vibrant, historic walls of our traditional shophouse, or bring the comforting taste of heritage straight to your family dinner table tonight, we have a seat saved just for you.

Don't wait until the craving takes over, ah! Secure your next meal with us today. 😉👇

Who doesn't love the satisfying crunch of a perfectly made Kueh Pie Tee? 🥟✨

In this episode of Cooking with Grandma, Aunty Vivien is showing us the true art of assembling this favourite Peranakan appetizer. It looks simple, but Aunty knows there's a real science to keeping that pastry shell crispy! 👩‍🍳💡

The secret? Grandma says you must press the juices out of the main vegetable filling so it's a bit dry before putting it into the cup. If it's too wet, it will drench the delicate shell and make it soggy before it even reaches your mouth! 😮 Fill it up high, add your juicy prawn, and of course, never forget a dollop of that crucial chili sauce on top. 🦐🌶️

It’s the ultimate bite-sized treat that brings back so many happy pre-dinner memories around the table. 🏠❤️

How many Kueh Pie Tee can you eat in one sitting? Aunty won't judge 😉 Pop by and grab a plate to share with the family!

If you know, you know—there is simply no substitute for the bold, earthy crunch of petai! 🌿🔥

Our Sambal Udang Petai is a dish that truly celebrates the punchy flavours of a Peranakan home. We take fresh, succulent prawns and toss them in a robust sambal that’s been pounded with heart and fried until the oil rises just right. The star, of course, is the "bitter bean," which adds that unmistakable depth we all love. 🦐✨

Aunty says this one is a real "rice-thief"—you’ll find yourself reaching for extra spoonfuls of rice just to soak up every last bit of that spicy, fragrant gravy. It’s bold, it’s traditional, and it’s meant to be shared with fellow petai lovers! 🍚😋

Don't be shy, ah! Come by and satisfy that craving.

Now, let’s get into the heart of a Peranakan favourite—the Ayam Buah Keluak. 🥘🖤
In this episode of Cooking with Grandma, we’re learning how to enjoy this the right way.

Grandma reminds us that because the gravy is so rich and earthy, you simply cannot eat it without a proper bowl of steamed rice. The rice balances the intense flavours perfectly, and it’s how we’ve always enjoyed it at home. 🍚✨

Aunty Vivien also shows us how to get to the good part—scooping out every bit of that creamy, nutty paste from inside the shell. It’s a slow, deliberate process, but that’s the beauty of our food. It’s meant to be savoured, not rushed! 👵🥣

Come by and enjoy a proper meal with us soon. Aunty will have the rice ready for you! 🏮✨

There’s nothing quite like the sound of laughter and the clinking of porcelain to make a house feel like a home. 🏮✨

At our Tanjong Pagar shophouse, we’ve made sure every corner feels like a warm embrace, where you can slow down and truly connect with the people who matter. But Aunty knows that some days, the best "gathering" is a quiet one on your own sofa! 🛋️🧡

Whether you’re coming to see us or having us come to you, the comfort of heritage is always ready for you.

What is a Peranakan feast without a little bit of fire and a whole lot of variety? 🌶️✨

In this episode of Cooking with Grandma, we’re talking about the "must-haves" on every traditional table. Aunty says it’s hard to pick just one favourite because everyone has their own "liking," but there’s one thing that is simply non-negotiable: our Sambal Belacan. 🥣🔥 It’s the soul of the meal—that spicy, pungent dip that brings everything to life!

Grandma Vivien also shares a little bit of our history. Did you know that Peranakan culture has a touch of British influence? 🇬🇧 Because many went to English schools, our tables are filled with a wonderful variety—from comforting soups to fresh veggies and hearty main dishes. It’s all about having a bit of everything to keep everyone happy! 🥘🧡

At the end of the day, a full table means a full heart. 👵✨

Come by and experience a true Peranakan feast for yourself. Aunty will make sure the sambal is ready! 🍚😋

Sometimes, all you need is a little heat and a lot of heart to make a day better. 🌶✨

Aunty has been busy in the kitchen today, making sure the Nonya noodles are just right—moist, flavorful, and cooked with all the patience it deserves. It’s one of those dishes that tastes best when shared over stories and laughter at the table. 🧡

Don't worry about the cooking tonight; let us handle the heavy lifting for you! Whether you want to soak in the heritage at our Tanjong Pagar home or enjoy a quiet feast in your own dining room, we've got you covered. 🏠🥢
