About
Hi, I’m wiffy the Noob Cook. I’m from the sunny city of Singapore.
Welcome to my recipes blog! I enjoy cooking even though I don’t think I’m very good at it. Being a noob* at cooking doesn’t, however, deter me from entering the kitchen and trying to whip up a storm. In this blog, I feature recipes of the successful dishes I’ve made. Hopefully, my bravery in entering the kitchen and showcasing the recipes will be an inspiration to other noobs out there.
* In case you are wondering what noob means, here are some of the applicable definitions at urban dictionary:
- someone who is new to a game, or website, online game, or something …
- noob is derived from the word ‘new’, it implies that you are inexperienced …
- Someone who completely and utterly sucks at what they are doing. This can range from cooking food, to playing Halo or other games…
Being a Noob Cook doesn’t mean we eat in all the time! Noob Cook Reviews (sister site) is a personal blog of our eat-out and travel escapades, where we share our foodie and travel finds with our readers. All featured reviews and content on Noob Cook Reviews site are explored at our own expense and recreation (non sponsored).

Hi Wiffy!
We are friends on the “We” games, I’m sby258. I saw your blog on your status and it intrigued me…for one, it’s interesting to know people out of the games-for two, I am a food fanatic and I like reading blogs :) I’m excited to try some of your recipes!
hey!!! a friend from the “We” family here, how cool is that! Thanks for your visit, I’ve just ordered from your kingdom :)
I understand proportion differs with taste sometimes… But but, i’d really love it if you could include the serving pax on every recipe? I’ll do the ratio and proportion calculations myself.. Lol.. I’m really bad at gauging.. Thank you wiffy… I assume the nick derives from wife which does all the heavy, lifting when it comes to cooking… Lol…
Hi One, sorry for my late reply. My recipes do include the serving pax at the ingredients section. And nope, my nickname does not derive from the word “wife”;)
Sweet blog! :D
I especially like your simple but heavenly molten chocolate cake recipe.
However, I find some strange. There is a long list of food blogs similar to yours (not the same recipes but same style of presentation). I still don’t get why they do it for. Do they at least get some renumeration?
Or is it out of the joy of cooking?
I’m a teen starting to cook on my own as my parents dare not dabble in culinary magic.
I would say most of us do it for the joy of cooking. Have fun cooking!
HI I just chanced upon your blog and am really excited to start trying out the recipes! I’ve always wanted to learn how to cook proper dishes but most of the things that books teach seem to be too difficult ): hope this works out well!
good luck to you sindy, happy cooking :)
Loved your blog… thou’ have not tried any of the recipes yet.. :p
But gonna try to make the chrysanthemum jelly for cny.. btw, where can i buy dried osmanthus flowers in singapore?
hi clar, you can find them at Fu Hua Medical Hall. I not sure if all outlets have it, but I’ve seen them in many outlets, they started bringing them in not too long ago :)
Hi – I just stumbled upon your blog and I LOVE it! It’s so hard to find English cookbooks for Authentic Chinese Food… and your recipes are so easy to follow! Also, your photos are very professional… do you do photography or must I say, “food-tography” professionally? Maybe you could start a photo blog too? ;) hehee. If you ever do, please let me know!
What a coincidence, I just started a photo blog for my favourite things… it’s at http://www.tellatoystory.com Thanks for your kind words! :)
I’m a Malaysian student studying in the UK..
I wanted to learn how to cook my own porridge..
Happen to bump into your website..
Good tips and steps =D
Goodluck in your cooking career xD
Hello! I’m from Singapore too but am currently living in London. Just to tell you that your recipes have pretty much been my lifeline to home cooked asian dishes. Thanks a lot and awesome site you have here! :)
Hi Wiffy, I’m so glad to have found your website! I’m a Singaporean living in the UK and I definitely miss the variety of food we have in Singapore. I can find similar sorts of food here but the taste just isn’t the same. Thrilled to find recipes of Singapore food on this site. I’m going to whip up Singapore dishes for myself! =)
I love your recipes and your photos!! Great food blog.
