Valentine's Day: Love binds them together


Valentines Day for Lim and Goh will probably centre around food, although for the couple, love is something that happens 365 days in a year, and not just on Feb 14. Photo: Calvin Goh

One thing that binds Calvin Goh and Lim YiLing, both 33, together is food. Even after six years of marriage – and two children aged four years and 10 months – what keeps their romance alive is food.

“In fact, our relationship revolves around food: I proposed to her (six years ago) by cooking a meal for her during a staycation, ” says Goh, a sales engineer. “And before the kids came along, I would always be churning out new dishes for her to try. She would also read up blogs on new, up-and-coming restaurants or cafes for us to visit, ” he says.
