My last day at work was also my birthday, and I wanted something really good for my morning tea. Something good meaning something served hot – with pastry! Morning teaI organised a platter of sausage rolls and spinach and ricotta parcels. I brought a container of tomato sauce from home, for dipping. Tupperware fans will […]
One of my last lunches with workmate J was at at Munch Terrace (230 Hay St, corner of Bennett St, East Perth). We shared the same craving that day: laksa, laksa, LAKSA! We ordered the combination laksa. In the large bowls of spicy curry soup were a mixture of egg noodles and rice noodles, with […]
On Tuesday of my final week at my old job, I facilitated a workshop at my old office in Subiaco. I simply could not miss my chance to have lunch afterwards at my old lunching haunt, Toraya Sushi (Shop 8 Subiaco Square, 29 Station Street, Subiaco). I was pleased to see that the waiter who […]
This is something I’ll definitely miss from my old job – birthday afternoon teas from Chez Jean Claude Patisserie with my now ex-team mates. A cup of tea, something sweet and decadent, chatting and laughing, and forgetting about the stresses of work for just a little while. This was workmate R’s birthday celebration. We’d se…
The food I loved the sushi cone so much I had another for lunch the following week. Workmate J and I went into Perth city at lunch time to grab takeaway lunches from Jaws Temaki Myer again. I got myself a double chicken lunch – a small teriyaki chicken and rice, and another chicken karaage […]
On the same day as the family breakfast at Sizzler, I went to afternoon tea at my friend D’s home. D was one of my best friends from my now ex-workplace. She wanted to celebrate my new job (although she was sad we would no longer get to work together) and my PhD. Our great […]
Those of you partial to breakfast posts should like this one! On the last Sunday in March, we had the buffet breakfast at Sizzler with Jac’s family, to celebrate my and Jac’s nephew Max’s birthdays. I was pleased to discover that you get Sizzler’s cheese toast at breakfast too! I know it’s nothing special, but [&hellip…
On the Saturday Jac and I went into the city to find me a wedding outfit (we’d found Jac’s dress in a boutique in Mount Lawley earlier that week), we had lunch in the Carillon Food Hall. While Jac looked for a sandwich or salad, I had two cravings to satisfy. First, a craving for […]
Towards the end of March, we went to our friends S and D’s home for a barbecue. I love grilled or barbecued haloumi cheese, so I was chuffed to see our starter dish cooking on the barbie. Soon, we could hear the sizzle of haloumi turning golden-brown on the hotplate. It smelled great! I ate […]
We got home early this morning and I’m all out of whack with time and sleep. I’m going through my holiday photographs and selecting the best ones for uploading to my Flickr account, and I’ll be writing up the holiday posts as soon as possible. Oh, and I will respond to your recent comments and […]
