Mum’s Hokkien mee recipe

Whenever we have a family get-together, I hope my mum will cook up a batch of her hokkien mee. To my delight, more often than not, she walks in with a big pot of noodles. I’ve had lots of requests for my mum’s Hokkien mee recipe since my recent post about my niece Ruby’s 4th […]

Rasa Nyonya Penang, East Victoria Park

We’ve driven past Rasa Nyonya Penang on Albany Highway many times but only tried it for the first time this Monday night after work. It’s hard to tell how busy it is from outside in the street and I was surprised as we stepped through the door to see that it was about two-thirds full, […]

Barbecue chicken with coleslaw, then with Indomie

Lunch – barbecue chicken and coleslaw from the supermarket. The chicken with salty skin, meat falling off the bones, finger-sucking good. Dinner – Indomie mi goreng, the original flavour. We had some chicken left over from lunch. I took the meat off the bones, zapped it in the microwave, then served it with the noodles […]

Dinner – takeaway noodles in a box

On one of the nights Jac was away I went to Noodlebox (118 Royal St, East Perth) after work and got a takeaway regular chicken pad thai. I ordered my pad thai without peanuts but with fish cake. I love fish cake so much, especially in a noodle stir-fry. Noodlebox’s regular size is HUGE. Sometimes […]

I ordered off the menu for a change and chose chicken pad thai – oh my goodness, it was awesome! Really really tasty! Definitely an “order again” for sure. […]

Takeaway dinner from Noodlebox

On a Wednesday night a few weeks ago, Jac went out to dinner with her hockey team mates. Since I knew I’d be too lazy to cook dinner for myself, I stopped by Noodlebox on my way home and picked up a regular (big) box of Design Your Own noodles. It was my usual combo: […]

Work lunch – noodles and a free dim sim

I enjoyed these honey soy & chicken noodles from Noodlebox. There was chicken, baby corn and bok choy along with the thick egg noodles. And they were really saucy. When the girl handed me my brown paper bag it felt extra heavy. She smiled and said “We’ve given you a free dim sim.” Just like […]

Laksa at home

Jac made laksa recently, and it was magnificent! She used Chilliz brand laksa paste and tinned coconut cream (she likes a richer, thicker, more “lemak” laksa broth). I prepared the egg noodles and rice noodles and helped assemble the bits and pieces in the bowls while Jac tended to the pot of laksa broth bubbling […]

Brunch at Canning Vale

We went to Canning Vale Markets recently and enjoyed a spot of brunch at the Market City Cafe. I had a small asian combination (AU$7.50), of fried rice, thai green curry chicken and stir-fried chicken noodles. This was great! The curry was especially tasty – lots of chicken, all succulent thigh pieces. Jac ordered “Don’s [……
