Glad to know you're enjoying the posts!<br /><br />Hi anonymous 2: Thanks. You worded this so nicely, and I absolutely agree with you. I used to religiously have a 50-50 mix of invited and independent reviews. But I have not gone out to explore food as much during the past 2-3 months because my family and I have been sick. And the food that I did try was not either blogworthy or eaten when I didn't bring my camera along. <br /><br />In terms of invites, I have also been declining most of them because I just had less energy, and I only took on the more interesting ones. But moving forward, once I feel better, I'd love to do more independent reviews too for 2012. Thanks for following the blog all this while.Camemberuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12606864987474618179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068656129507965062.post-76282606037118750042012-01-18T14:50:15.896+08:002012-01-18T14:50:15.896+08:00Hi, I'm a real big long time silent fan of you...Hi, I'm a real big long time silent fan of yours : ) But recently I've seen so many invited tastings and promotional features on your blog that I'm feeling a bit uncertain about them. My sense is that if it's an invited tasting, the food tends to be made with more care. Just my 2 cents - I think the photos are lovely but it's tough to be objective about quality. I'd love to see more independent reviews, just like what you used to do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068656129507965062.post-63079180359975259252012-01-18T09:06:59.997+08:002012-01-18T09:06:59.997+08:00Ah okay cool, by the way, I just wanted to say, (a...Ah okay cool, by the way, I just wanted to say, (at the risk of sounding terribly patronising, I assure you, totally not!) that I loveeee your blog it makes me feel so much like being home!

I will amend accordingly.Camemberuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12606864987474618179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068656129507965062.post-77072111613098894642012-01-17T05:29:40.762+08:002012-01-17T05:29:40.762+08:00Hello there!

I don't mean to be ignorant or rude, but while reading, I was just wondering, in your Prosperity Pen Cai, are there two different types of fish maw under the 17 listed ingredients? It seems to be repeated. :/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
