My folks had been away on holiday in Malaysia since mid-January. They got home on the 15th of February. We all got together on Thursday last week after work for a Chap Goh Mei/belated family reunion dinner, to celebrate Chinese New Year. My cousin AM, her hubby C and little daughter E were at dinner […]
Here are a couple of dinners cooked by Jac last week. 18/02/2008. Jac bought peri peri chicken breasts which came out of the packet a flaming red – and they were as hot as they looked, no – a squillion times spicier and hotter than I had imagined. No, really – they were yummy, but […]
Last week’s lunches… Monday: SRM and I had lunch at Toraya Sushi (Shop 8 Subiaco Square, 29 Station Street, Subiaco). SRM had the medium size teriyaki fish bento box (AU$12.00). I had a serve of crab claws (AU$4.00) and a cooked tuna salad (AU$6.00). They’d trimmed the pointy tips off the claws. Without the pointy […]
We were too busy to do anything for Valentine’s Day on the day itself, but as a special treat for ourselves we’d booked a night at a hotel for the Saturday night of the weekend after Valentine’s. And so after my breakfast/interview with Cellobella in Subiaco, I headed back home to help Jac finish getting […]
As I mentioned recently, I was interviewed by Cellobella recently over breakfast at the Subiaco Hotel last Saturday. Over the time I’ve been blogging, I’ve met and become good mates with a few bloggers – funnily enough (you’ll probably not be at all surprised), we always met up over a meal! Prior to the event […]
On Thursday morning last week, SRM went to Cafe Cafe to grab a takeaway coffee. He asked if I’d like something, and I requested a serve of fruit toast. Cafe Cafe’s fruit bread is covered in sunflower seeds and has quite a dense, heavy texture emphasised by the thick slicing of the bread. Where most […]
13/02/2008. I met Jac after work and we drove to the International Eating House food hall at East Victoria Park for a midweek dinner date. Jac ordered the regular teriyaki tofu set (AU$6.00 – I think). Yep, that’s right – this was the regular size, not large! The tofu has a very thin, crispy coating […]
15/02/2008. It was L’s birthday, and she brought in a gorgeous cake for afternoon tea. I asked for permission to take a few photos before afternoon tea commenced and the hungry hoards appeared. When I peeked into the cardboard box, I was amazed by the cake inside – I’d never seen a spectacular pink, brown […]
Monday, 11/2/2008. SRM and I had lunch at Kome. I ordered the large teriyaki chicken bento (AU$8.90). SRM ordered the combination bento – with your rice, salad and miso soup, you can choose any two out of teriyaki chicken/katsu chicken/karaage chicken/teriyaki fish (the last time I had this it cost AU$9.90. Not sure if the […]
I’m running behind yet again with posts and comment/email replies. Here are some of our dinners from the past week or so as I try to catch up. I just don’t have enough time on weeknights. It’s so frustrating. Bring on the weekend. 10/02/2008. I stir-fried some green vegies – bok choy and snow peas […]
