At Spencer Village (Spencer Road Shopping Centre, Thornlie) recently, Jac had a teriyaki fish salad from the Japanese stall. It’s very nice, but a very small meal indeed. I knew she’d need something else… I had been craving chee cheong fun (fresh rice flour roll) and yong tow foo (stuffed beancurd and vegetables) from Fook [&helli…
The dinner A couple of Thursday nights ago, Jac bought a box of Darshan mini savoury rolls for our dinner. We’ve eaten the Darshan chicken rolls before, and really like them. Jac thought these could go well with salad, and I could take any leftovers to work for lunch the next day. The mini savoury […]
A recent late lunch on a work day – chicken karaage, rice and salad from Sushi@Royal (Shop 2, 131 Royal St, East Perth). The fried chicken is always delicious and juicy and leaves me with greasy lips.
For lunch last Wednesday, I packed myself a hard-boiled egg and salad (spinach leaves, cucumber, mushrooms, red capsicum, and blanched green beans), with a rolled-up slice of Jarlsberg Light cheese, sliced sweet gherkin pickles and a few semi-dried tomatoes. I also made French toast squares, and packed a little bottle of maple syrup to go [……

I took this opportunity to try out the lemon myrtle dressing we got for Christmas – I’d never tried lemon myrtle before. It was yummy! Surprisingly tangy and really quite delicious! Jac loved it too. It went […]

The dinner Jac made up a platter of salad (mixed lettuce, mushrooms, cucumber, tomatoes), coleslaw, pickles (sweet gherkins and pickled onions) and fruit (grapes, apple and nectarine).
