Gumshara – Haymarket Chinatown, Sydney

November 9, 2009

I can never get tired looking at a big slab of pork spare rib on my blog. After visiting the Shin Yokohoma Raumen Museum in Japan last year, I was convinced that I will never find another bowl of ramen that is as good as the one I’ve had in the museum. However, looks like [...]

“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).

October 2, 2008

I used to work and live in Artarmon, so I know this area pretty well. Artarmon is a small suburb tucked in between Chatswood and St Leonards.
