The Larder – Wellington, New Zealand

weta-10

Egg porn. Is that the wind blow or I just heard your orgasmic gasp? I don’t blame you because I had the exact same reaction when I pierced the fragile poached egg ever so slightly it burst and my croque madame was suddenly draped with golden yolk that is so sexy, I couldn’t help but [...]

Cafe Vue – Melbourne CBD, VIC

cafe-vue-6

The cafe scene in Melbourne without a doubt is one of the best (if not the best) in Australia. Espresso machines are hissing at every corners, stools and chairs dominate the laneways with coffee goers soaking up the sun (no rain if lucky) whilst sipping a cup of latte, it is a picture perfect that [...]

TOASTED GRANOLA, GREEK YOGHURT FOAM, WEETBIX SABLE

granola_yoghurt_4

Breakfast, the most important meal of the day. Sadly I don’t eat breakfast very often, bad boy I am… I know… Then I discovered granola. Who’d have thought it is so easy to make granola? Just add some rolled oats with dried fruits and sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds into glorious brown sugar, maple syrup [...]

Sri Kaya (Coconut Jam) recipe

kaya-toast-5

Just realised I haven’t done a recipe post for ages! It is not that I don’t cook at home often enough, in fact I actually spend even more time in kitchen these days than ever before! It’s just that I am super busy lately and hardly go out for dinner, whatever I cook these days [...]

Marigold Restaurant Yum Cha – Haymarket Chinatown, Sydney CBD

marigold-yumcha-8

“Ewww….!” She squeals. But we are not taking ‘no’ for an answer and keep prodding, “Eat it! Eat it!” She squeals some more and simply won’t barge. Betty eventually takes her drink away and says, “If you are not going to eat it, you won’t get your Coke!” And it worked. Karen slowly picks up [...]

Lose Yourself in Melbourne Laneways but not your appetite

melb_brekky-6

As we have just missed our tram to South Melbourne to check out St Ali, we decided to just stay in the city and have breakfast at some of the cafes tucked away in the vibrant Melbourne  laneways. If this is your first time in Melbourne and not sure where to go for some good [...]

Cafe Ish – Surry Hills, Sydney, NSW

cafe-ish-9

This has to be one of the most beautiful cup of coffee I’ve ever seen and tasted. No joke! I ordered the wattle maccacino, under the recommendation from the friendly waiter as he said is good for photos (I like the sound of that), but of course it is also their signature coffee. All this [...]

The Fat Goose – Killcare, Central Coast, NSW

thefatgoose12

Sometimes I am a little skeptical about going to a restaurant with mockery name just to lure customers in. Possibly not intentional, the fat goose in Killcare is rather ballsy to have its name almost as close to the famous three Michelin stars restaurant, The Fat Duck runs by Heston Blumenthal, the culinary alchemist. Duck, [...]

Foolproof Soft Boiled Egg Cooker

halfboiledegg4

What a gorgeous weekend! The last thing I wanted to do is being stuck inside the house and mess around in the kitchen. No way José! Having said that, I did spend only a few hours in kitchen just to finish my Daring Bakers challenge, as I wasn’t happy with the first attempt I did [...]

My perfect breakfast

ricotta_brekky4

Just look at these roman tomatoes, I had to have them when I spotted it at the supermarket, and they are the bestest, juiciest tomatoes ever in this world… no this universe! Funny thing is I actually not a tomato person, I don’t mind them but I don’t miss them either. Maybe because I just [...]

Rosebud – Rozelle, NSW

rosebud4

I think one of the most important factor that makes a cafe/restaurant ahead of others is to have an experience coffee barista who knows his coffee. I never claimed to be a coffee expert, but I definitely can appreciate a good cup of coffee when it is well made with a good blend. The “Rosebud” [...]

Carman’s Muesli Rounds

carmans_round3

The Pom is a big Carman’s fan, he can have his oat cereal any time of the day – breakfast, lunch and sometimes even dinner. I swear I am not lying (cuz I am not a breakfast person… and usually skip it… I know I know… is the most important meal of the day…) So [...]

Bills – Surry Hills, Sydney

bills7

Did your heart just skip a bit? Mine sure did when the waitress brings out these oh-so gorgeous wagyu beef burgers and lay it down in front of us. We were spending Saturday afternoon checking out some of the exhibitions at 2 Danks Street Galleries and when it comes to lunch, the Danks Street Depot [...]
