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 [...]

“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 [...]

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

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

February 15, 2010

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

September 21, 2009

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

June 19, 2009

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

June 9, 2009

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

May 14, 2009

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

February 27, 2009

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 [...]

“Where can I get a good coffee?” I twittered on my iPhone. It didn’t take long for me to realise I’ve sent the message too soon without telling people where exactly I am. Soon enough my twitter is flooded with recommendations all the way from US, telling me to go to Starbucks. “Where can I [...]

Peanut Butter & Caster Sugar on Toast

January 29, 2009

I think I am still on the whole peanut butter addiction since the Fool’s Gold Loaf that I had at Parkes. And people find it strange that I sprinkle castor sugar on top after spreading peanut butter on toast. But that’s what I grew up on and I can actually explain the reason why I [...]
