We had some bacon in the fridge to use up- so Jac chopped it into little pieces and fried it with mushrooms, garlic and spring onions (another thing in the fridge that needed to be used up!). She told me she’d use this mix in an omelette for dinner the next night. Mmmm, the anticipation! […]
We had breakfast at the Cuckoo Chef cafe, Carousel Shopping Centre, on ANZAC Day morning. Jac ordered the eggs benedict. The toasted Turkish bread, ham, poached eggs and spinach were smothered in thick, almost congealed-looking hollandaise sauce (see the creases in the sauce? Ewww, hollandaise skin!). The poached egg yolks weren’t as gooey as…
This is the first of a series of 8 posts (the full list is at the end of the post). Most of you have probably worked out by now that we went to Hamilton Island for our recent holiday. We were on Hamilton Island for a week, Wednesday to Wednesday, with Jac’s brother’s wedding on […]
In early April, my family held a “full moon” celebration for the newest member of the family, my niece Zoe, the second child of my brother and my sister-in-law. Regular and long-time readers will remember the full moon celebration we held for Ruby about a year and a half ago. Zoe’s full moon followed the […]
If I didn’t blog, I’d have never met my friend C. As well as being a brilliant photographer, she’s my great “makan buddy” (“eating” friend). In my second last week at my old job, we met up for breakfast at Shots Espresso Bar (528 Hay St, Perth) and both ordered from the specials board. C […]
A lightly toasted sesame seed knobby bun, filled with bacon, egg with a soft, gooey yolk, and tomato sauce. Just look at the egg soaking into the bread, and the four layers of bacon! A perfect mouthful. I love buns that have a knob on top. I believe the proper name for these buns (well, […]
This is one of my all-time favourite simple pleasures and comfort meals: Indomie Mi Goreng with a Chinese omelette. I break the egg into a bowl and beat it with a fork, with a drizzle of soy sauce and a sprinkling of white pepper, then pour it into a hot frying pan (I love the […]
I craved something bacony and eggy for breakfast one morning. On impulse, I grabbed a bacon and egg sub from Subway in town. I bought a foot long sub and had it cut in half so I could share it with my workmate J. They toasted the bun and zapped the bacon and egg, wrapped […]
Looks like my old trick of starting a post about something and finishing with something else! Jac had an appointment with the doctor one morning recently and decided she’d have breakfast with me before dropping me off at work. We went to Ba Ba Black (Shop 25, 60 Royal St, East Perth – next to […]
Jac recently cooked me a fry-up for breakfast, with bacon, fried egg, tomato, mushrooms and a toasted English muffin. I buttered both halves of the muffin, and spread kaya on one. Can you tell the egg yolk was actually broken? Jac cursed herself as she placed it on the plate, as she poked it accidentally […]
