What she ate: Prawn mee

Yummy factor: When you’ve been selling bowl after bowl of it all day long for a food programme, it’s nice to be able to taste the fruits of your labour. And while Jade, who was a hawker intern for a day, didn’t whip up the bowl of Penang-style Hokkien prawn mee herself, the dry version did taste pretty shiok with its black sauce base.

What they ate: Tang yuan

Yummy factor: Fann and Chris may be physically apart, but never at heart. The celeb couple took to Instagram to share photos of themselves having tang yuan — Fann and Zed had theirs in ginger soup, while Chris ate the smaller traditional ones sans fillings. We don’t know about you, but it certainly tugged at our heartstrings.

What they ate: Korean BBQ

Yummy factor: Hong Ling, Nick, Michelle and Joel paid a visit to Gogiyo to support Shane Pow’s latest F&B venture, and boy did they have a sizzlin’ good time. By that, we mean the Korean BBQ they had with spicy pork and chicken, as well as a bubbling army stew with plenty of instant ramyeon and melted cheese for good measure.

What she ate: Holiday spread

Yummy factor: Phyllis played host to her celeb girlfriends — Zoe Tay, Hong Huifang, Chen Xiuhuan, Hong Zhaorong, and Carole Lin — and did a fantastic job feeding her guests. The indulgent spread included chicken pie, grilled vegetables, pasta and more. There were even homemade gingerbread man cookies and canelés! And don’t worry — they kept to the limit of five guests.

What they ate: Smoky chee cheong fun

Yummy factor: Who better to serve up speciality chee cheong fun personally than towkay Ben himself? The actor not only delivered his popular CCF to Jamie, he even brought a flame torch to add the perfect char to his Smoky Chee Cheong Fun, paired with char siew sauce and crispy you tiao toppings.

What they ate: Thai street food at Kin Kao Young

Yummy factor: Ann and her live stream collaborators Darren and CKay opted to have Thai for dinner and it was aroy mak mak (delicious)! There were Thai-style braised pork trotters, pork rib soup, mango sticky rice with ice cream, and more.

What she ate: Crayfish mee siam

Yummy factor: Why settle for plain ol’ mee siam when you can elevate the dish with succulent crayfish? Safe to say, Xiuhuan was generous with her ingredients — huge prawns, hard-boiled eggs, and of course, crayfish — so much so that one can hardly see the beehoon hiding underneath.

What she ate: Singaporean delights

Yummy factor: Well, when the only food court in Taipei serving Singaporean food — FoodOpera — offers major discounts at all stalls, Yvonne just had to do the Singaporean thing and join the snaking queue! We’d probably do the same if we were in her shoes. And it was all worth it, because she managed to  get her fix of Hainanese chicken rice and prawn mee.

What she ate: Italian staples

Yummy factor: Jeanette took time off from her packed schedule to enjoy a leisurely Italian dinner, and her tummy was duly rewarded with pastas of every manner, soft burrata cheese, fresh salads and grilled meats. The highlight for her, however, were the deeply-satisfying desserts served with ice cream, chocolate and plenty of whipped cream. Yummy!

What she ate: Brunch

Yummy factor: It’s no surprise that both Jacelyn and her son Zavier are a picture of bliss. The mum-of-one took some time off work to spend "a free and easy day" with Zavier, and they both enjoyed heart-to-heart conversations over a leisurely brunch — eggs, sausages, yummy breads and plenty of fresh greens — at Paul.

What he ate: Birthday cakes

Yummy factor: Although Elvin may have had one too many cakes for his 40th birthday (Dec 23) this year, he certainly felt the adoration from his fans and loved ones. And they made sure to include his fave football club — Chelsea F.C. — on the blue fondant creation, and even took the trouble to add a cut-out of Elvin himself striking a pose in his gear.

​​​​​​​What he ate: Fusion tang yuan

Yummy factor: Junyang had the best of both worlds with his fusion tang yuan — think glutinous rice balls with papaya cubes, Chinese almonds and white fungus dessert soup. What a nourishing combo!

What he ate: Too much tabasco

Yummy factor: Joakim's mum made him some pasta, and he decided to test his limits by adding plenty of extra-hot tabasco sauce to his plate of happy carbs. While he didn’t get burnt alive by the spicy condiment, he did end up perspiring profusely after. Well, you won’t know until you try, right?

What she ate: Daddy’s signatures

Yummy factor: Whenever Michelle visits Papa Chong, he always makes sure to prepare a feast for her. Check out the spread he whipped up to celebrate the winter solstice — we spy Michelle's favourite Teochew-style steamed fish, prawns with glass noodles, sesame oil chicken, and chilli crab.

What she ate: Balloon bread

Yummy factor: Bonnie had what looks like Turkish-style balloon bread, and according to her, the garlic-flavoured bake tastes more like Indian prata than bread. Nonetheless, she looks happy enough tucking into the puffed-up creation.

What they ate: Christmas specials

Yummy factor: They may be known as the Muttons, but they certainly love their beef. From dry-aged steaks to steak and eggs and steak benedict (featuring fillet mignon!), Justin and Vernon got to nom on just about everything Wolfgang’s Steakhouse is offering this festive season, and more.

What he ate: Hearty lunch

Yummy factor: Thanks to wifey Gina Lin, Lee Teng had a most sumptuous home-cooked lunch in the comforts of their own nest — think braised pork rice, stir-fried greens, and a hearty-looking chicken soup that’s chock-full of fresh clams.

What he ate: Homemade uni pasta

Yummy factor: Daniel whipped up a simple but oh-so-yummy pasta dish for his wife Fay Tan, and she absolutely loved it. Something tells us it’s the umami from the buttery uni and juicy ikura toppings that earned brownie points for Dan.

​​​​​​​What he ate: Booze and beef

Yummy factor: Joshua’s all smiles, and we’d harbour a guess that it’s because of the exquisite Macallan whiskies he had, paired with flavoursome grass-fed Angus from The Butcher’s Block that’s been aged for no less than 28 days.

​​​​​​​What she ate: Omakase dinner

Yummy factor: Apple’s omakase dinner at Hachi Restaurant was a most fanciful affair, with delectable menu items like lightly-grilled ohmi wagyu beef served with truffle and tamago, fresh sashimi, as well as tuna sashimi topped with more truffle and uni.

What they ate: Takeaway Japanese nosh

Yummy factor: Famished from their rollerblading class, Patricia and Cynthia decided to tapow Japanese food at Parkway Parade — think fresh sashimi, fish cheek, tempura maki and maguro sushi, oden, and more — to have with their chilled white wine at wine store Bottles & Bottles. Because why not?
