We had afternoon tea at work last week to celebrate SRM’s birthday. This is the box of goodies he supplied, pre-cut at the bakery he bought them from, for everyone’s enjoyment! The carrot cake with cream cheese icing was a favourite for J while Chad rather enjoyed the chocolate slice; what I loved was the […]
Tuesday – the Noodle Box franchise has come to East Perth (118 Royal St). Here’s J’s Combo Box (small AU$8.50, regular $12.50), steaming hot. The Combo Box is supposed to include egg noodles, barbecue pork, chicken, beef, vegetables, prawn and shrimp in oyster sauce. J was disappointed to find she only got the tiny shrimps [&helli…
Jac had to go into work for a few hours last Sunday. Before she came home, she gave me a call and asked if I’d like her to grab me anything to eat on her way back. I asked for a Big Mac meal (burger, fries and Diet Coke). You know, it’s been over ten […]
Saturday morning at the shops always begins or ends with eating. This was last Saturday: First, a two salad combination from Sumo Salad – Mexican salad and falafel salad. Jac ate most of this, but I had a taste. The flavours of the Mexican salad were delicious – the cheese, sour cream and chilli beans […]
I recently attended a course held in one of the convention rooms at the Melbourne Hotel in Perth. Since the course didn’t start until 9:30am, I decided to have breakfast in the city beforehand. There’s a cafe at the Melbourne, called M Cafe. I chose to eat there more for convenience than anything; since my […]
So, what can a person do with leftover pikelets? Haha, yes, I know, eat them! I built myself a little stack of pikelets with banana, like this: the first pikelet, a little sliced banana, a drizzle of maple syrup, the second pikelet, more banana, another drizzle of maple syrup, the third pikelet, and a little […]
Last weekend on Saturday afternoon, Jac’s mum Pattycakes and her brother’s partner K came over. Jac and her family are going away for four days to stay in a house by the beach this coming weekend – I’m not going because: 1) we have too many people currently on leave at work, and I wasn’t […]
We had dinner at Sapporo last Tuesday night. We chose Sapporo since 1) we haven’t been there for a while, 2) we were in the mood for Japanese food and 3) we felt like something simple and homestyle, in a relaxed environment. Sapporo is a little restaurant, on the corner of Rutland Ave and a […]
25/05/2008 – savoury chops (a family recipe, made with lamb chops), with garlic mashed potatoes and steamed green vegetables (broccoli and green beans). The carrots were cooked in the casserole dish with the chops, and they were sweet and delicious. For dessert, Jac made what she called cheat’s trifle. We didn’t have any swiss rol…
This is what happens when I get busy during the week. You get two weeks’ worth of work lunches in a single post! Monday (two weeks ago) – SRM, J and I went to Mai’s Vietnamese Restaurant (51 Bennett St, East Perth). SRM had the soy sauced chicken rice, a dish I’ve ordered previously. He […]
