A table for two

Whenever I am in Sydney, I always try to make the most of my day… and night with good food if possible. On this occasion, my initial plan was to drop by at Alice’s in Thornleigh for some Malaysian Chinese food on my way home with Big D. After being informed by our friends who [...]

It’s Domo-Kun! I made my very first novelty cake for the flavour tripping party at ChocolateSuze’s new home. Sorry for the late post as some readers had requested for the recipe a while ago, hope it’s not too late for those who were planning to make the Domo-Kun cake for party. What do you mean [...]

“A table for one,” I said. (You heard me right) The day that A Table For Two dine alone is finally happening sooner than I anticipated. Disaster! However, the opportunity of getting hold of a table at Ichi-ban Boshi makes eating by myself perhaps is not such a bad thing after all. This ramen noodle [...]

I feel the earth… move… under my feet… … as I take a big bite of this super crunchy deep-fried soft shell crab. The shell soft crab salad comes in abundance with two massive crabs and lots of fresh green lettuce, tomatoes, shaved spring onions and spanish onions. The spicy hot mayo dressing on the [...]

“I think I know which one is the bomb,” says the hungry digital elf confidently. He picks one of the six salmon sushi off the plate and put in his mouth. No doubt he is safe. One down, five more to go – the sushi roulette continues until one of us put a bullet into [...]

Who would have thought me and Helen are still hungry after sampling all the free food at the March into Merivale launch party? While the other foodbloggers bid each other farewell and decided is time to head home, we found ourselves wandering around looking for more food and ended up at The Rocks, having a [...]

It’s been over 3 months since my last trip to Japan, and it takes me this long to finally writing this post about a little something I brought back from Japan. Before I begin, let me clarify that this post is not my intentions to upset anybody if you find it offensive, and I also [...]

“Billy, come. I’ve told the waitress you are a foodblogger and she is going to show you around and take pictures,” Mr V.I.P insisted again after giving me a full tour of Crystal Club on 29th floor earlier on. But this time, we will be having our little tour inside KOKO, one of Melbourne’s premier [...]

“Where can I get a bowl of ramen like this?” Hop on the subway to Shin Yokohama station, follow the well-signed route, cross over the sky bridge, walk down a few blocks, turn around the corner and soon we found the building that we are looking for (We actually totally walked past and missed it). [...]

I promise this will be the last part and won’t bore you with more about our stay at Kokuya, but just look at the pic, how could you not ramble about this tranquil gorgeous little town? After an amazing Kaiseki 8 courses dinner, and a good night sleep, it’s time to pack our bags and [...]

It’s dinner time! The little onsen tamago was delicious, but all I could think of is the exquisite kaiseki dinner we’re going to have tonight at Kokuya! We both don’t look too shabby in our yukatas, and headed towards the dining area. “Look! My name is on the board!” I said. I was so excited [...]

This is going to be a long post, so I’ve decided to split it into 3 parts, as there are just too many stories to tell, and yummy food to share at this amazing gorgeous place deep in the Japanese Alps called the Shibu Onsen. You may not have heard of Shibu Onsen, but you [...]

Hello all! and I am back from Japan! Needless to say I had a fabulous time, lots of eating, lots of sightseeing, lots of socialising, and did I mention eating? Food are everywhere at every corner no matter where you go, from sidewalk food stalls, to standing-up ramen shops, to a full course traditional Kaiseki [...]

I don’t cook red meat very often, but occasionally I do like to have a good dose of iron intake from a nice piece of juicy steak. I was inspired by Jane Lawson’s Japanese food western style and decided to cook the beef fillet steak with seaweed butter, and served with sweet potato and ginger [...]
