Takeaway – Penang Delight Malaysian Chinese Cuisine

A few weeks ago, Jac and I looked after her niece and nephew on a Friday night – their parents (Jac’s brother B and his wife K – remember our Hamilton Island holiday? :)) were off to Melbourne for the weekend to attend a friend’s 40th birthday celebration. The plan was like this: Jac and […]

Chinese home delivery for…how many?

It’s probably not a good idea to order Chinese home delivery when you are feeling really really REALLY hungry*. Because this is what happens! Don’t worry, I didn’t get through all of it on my own in one sitting! I’ve done this before when Jac’s been away – I bought a stack of home delivery […]

Thursday night dinners

We went grocery shopping last Thursday night, and grabbed some takeaway food for dinner. We chucked a few laps around the food hall, deciding what to get. Nothing really appealed to Jac – she ended up getting herself a couple of fresh prawn rice paper rolls. I got myself a Chinese combination of fried rice […]

Dim sum at Emma’s

A couple of Sundays ago, Jac and I met up with Chad and her fiancé J for dim sum at Emma’s Seafood and Dim Sum Restaurant (886 Albany Highway Victoria Park). We’ve seen the lines outside the restaurant on weekends and wanted to be sure we’d be early enough to get a table right away […]

Jac was a little stressed out on the Thursday night before the long weekend (geez, I really am running behind, aren’t I?), busily getting things ready for her weekend away with her hockey friends. We went to the shops to do a little shopping, and then grabbed some takeaway for a quick dinner. I haven’t […]

Chinese home delivery

It’s been a while since we had a big feed of Chinese home delivery for dinner. As always, special fried rice… Crab meat with sweet corn soup – the bigger pieces of “crab” were seafood extender, which was a shame. Seafood extender is really no substitute for real crab! The corn soup flavour was delicious, […]

Rising Sun’s all-you-can-eat dim sum

On Sunday morning, we decided to try the all-you-can-eat dim sum at Rising Sun Restaurant, at 29 Manning Road, Cannington. The all-you-can-eat dim sum costs $11.00 per person, and is available on weekends from 10:30am till 2 or 3pm, I can’t remember (bad, baad TFP!). You pay at the cashier before you are seated, so […]

NSW Holiday 2007-2008 – Day 12

On the 2nd of January it was, sadly, time to leave Nelson Bay. We said good-bye to D, who was staying home to study, while L drove us to Newcastle, where we would have lunch and then make our way to the train station. But just before we left, L told us that S who […]
