About Us

Greetings, Interneteers!

Assalaamu 'alaikum. Welcome to our humble abode! 
What started off as a small business during the scourge of the COVID-19 pandemic eventually stuck as our part-time hustle. We love what we do and we hope you love our food too.

We serve a selection of casserole-based menus. All are mainly of two sizes; a "Grand Party" size, and a "Mini Party" size. Great for get-together events and other feisty occasions.

In the meantime, enjoy other goodies, information & tips that we'll provide online from time to time.  

See you soon and don't hesitate to come back for second, third, or whatever n-th helpings you're on!

From the 'Captain' & all 'crews' on board this 'fleet'.

Tom Kha Kai (ต้มข่าไก่), Chicken Galangal Soup

Image
An acquaintance suggested ' Tom Kha Gai ' (or ' Tom Kha Kai ') during one of our meet-ups.  'The kids will love them," he had said. On a spectrum where the ' Tomyam ' is at one end while ' Poktek ' is on the other, I would say that the Tom Kha Kai sits somewhere in between. It is absolutely delicious and simple to prepare - you should try it out!

The Prophetic or Sunnah-based Food a.k.a. "Makanan Sunnah" Advertising Dilemma and How to Fix It

Image
To those unfamiliar with the term, the word  Sunnah  is usually a reference made to our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ - be it his sayings, actions (including his approvals), and practices. Hence, when it is used in association with the term 'food' (i.e. " makanan Sunnah "), it can lead to diverse interpretations and unintended use.  Thankfully, a few academicians have already attempted to raise this issue and unravel the possible meanings of " makanan Sunnah ", especially from the community context 1 - from where the term was "coined", and they are: All food that is derived and mentioned in al-Qur'an and al-Hadith (Prophetic traditions) - this context and meaning has been the primary understanding amongst the Muslim masses in Malaysia; All food that brings goodness and  maslahah 2 (brings benefits and wards off harm) to mankind whether it has been mentioned in al-Qur'an, al-Hadith, or in neither of them. This definition, no doubt, is derived...

By The Fig and The Olive - The Qur'anic Perspective and Scientific Evidence Affirming Effects on Longevity and Vitality

Black and green olives. The Qur'an mentions this fruit as ' Az-Zaytuun ' (ٱلزَّيْتُونِ). The  Aloe Vera  plant isn't the only natural resource found in either of the primary sources of Islam (Al-Qur'an and As-Sunnah). There are others and two that are often mentioned aloud in a congregation prayer are the fruits we call figs and olives, referred to in Arabic as ' At-Tin ' and ' Az-Zaytuun '. The way that these fruits have been mentioned in  Surah At-Tin (the 95 th Surah or Chapter in the Qur'an) signifies how important they are because Allah specifically swore by them. However, as we leave At-Tin and Az-Zaytuun in their fruit context for a little while, it is important to note that some of the mufassirūn (the authors of tafsir s, a piece of commentary works that critically explain or interpret the verses of the Qur'an i.e. an exegesis of the Qur'an) h...
