Workmate J and I had lunch at Basil Leaves (82 Royal St, East Perth). We sat at one of the tables outside and enjoyed the sunshine on a warm fine day. J’d had a craving for Thai green curry for some time, and she didn’t hesitate to order the Thai green chicken curry with rice. […]
Thank goodness it’s Friday. Since we’re on a junk food theme, here’s more! The chicken looked a little burnt (“A little?!” you’ve probably scoffed, looking at the photo!) this time, but it tasted great. Along with the Whopper, the Grilled Chicken Burger is one of my favourite burgers from Hungry Jack’s. I a…
Chicken Treat Hawaiian Pack, with a quarter chicken, chips and two pineapple rings. I always ask for a leg, which means I’ll get a thigh and drumstick – I’m always very disappointed if I’m given a breast and wing instead, which occasionally happens. I wish wish wish they’d bring back the crumbed bananas – Hawaiia…
Workmate J and I grabbed takeaway lunches from Jaws Mint (on Hay Street, opposite the Perth Mint). We each got a small teriyaki chicken. The chicken looked so juicy, the brown skin so moist and shiny, the teriyaki sauce soaked into the perfectly clumpy rice underneath – I just couldn’t wait to eat this! Workmate […]
If I happen to go to 88 Royal lunch bar (88a Royal St, East Perth) on a Monday I know exactly what I’ll get for lunch. It’ll be their Monday hot food special: honey chicken and fried rice. The fried rice has barbecue pork, peas, egg, onions and bean sprouts in it. I’ve said before […]
As workmate J said, when talking about my MYO toasted wraps: “You pick funny fillings. It’s just like a little kid’s been allowed to make her own sandwich.” :D I’ve mentioned before what my standard wrap fillings are: chicken, semi sundried tomatoes, pickles, corn, mushrooms, fruit chutney, pineapple, and sometimes gre…
We had a long weekend here in Western Australia in September. Jac went on a trip to Margaret River with her hockey team mates while I stayed home. I’m always quite happy to be home alone. I just do my own thing, usually spending most of the weekend sitting in my study at my computer, […]
Regular readers will know how much I love Krispy Kreme doughnuts. You’ll have seen posts where we’ve brought boxes of Krispy Kreme doughnuts back from interstate holidays. It’s a well known ritual for Western Australian Krispy Kreme fans, buying KK doughnuts at Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane airports before boarding our return flig…
Last month Jac made chicken enchiladas for dinner using an Old El Paso enchilada pack, which included soft corn tortillas and enchilada seasoning. She filled the tortillas with a chicken and bean mix, and topped them in the baking dish with lots of cheese and enchilada sauce which included more chunks of chicken. The smell […]
Jac bought me a chicken and vegetable pie from the supermarket – sorry guys, I don’t remember what brand it was. It was from a fridge and came in a plastic wrapper, ready to heat in the oven. On an evening on which I’d come home late from work and needed something warm and comforting […]
