Jac got these takeaway egg noodles with chicken for me recently from the international food hall at Oats Street in East Victoria Park. They were very greasy but so garlicky, charry flavoured and really delicious. The chicken pieces were well seasoned and so bouncy, juicy and succulent. Fantastic.
MondayBreakfast, first day back at the old job in East Perth – one of J’s mystery lunch bar toasted ham and tomato sandwiches, on multigrain bread. The bread had been lightly buttered before toasting so it was golden-brown and extra delicious. Lunch was from the Monday bain marie special from 88 Royal lunch bar (88a […]
I’ve said this before – when Jac makes bangers and mash (sausages with mashed potato), it’s always more than just bangers and mash! This time there were beef sausages, garlic mashed potatoes, fried onions, portabello mushrooms, broccolini and corn on the cob. That’s smokey barbecue sauce on one of my sausages. When I sit dow…

On one of our busy nights, Jac grabbed me a takeaway dinner from Spencer Village International Food Hall (200 Spencer Road, Thornlie) – hainanese chicken rice from Penang Cuisine.
