Last night’s dinner, chicken stew made by Jac. Another no recipe dish. She browned chopped onions and chicken in the wok (she cooked the whole thing in our big wok) and added potatoes, carrots and frozen peas. She poured in a litre carton of chicken stock and seasoned with white pepper, let it all cook […]
On Thursday at work we had gozleme for lunch. Every week on “goz day”, a couple of the girls very kindly take everyone’s orders and money and get goz for everyone – around half an hour before they leave, they come around asking the question: “Are you gozzing today?” I’ve written about gozleme before –…
We decided to have sushi for lunch after Feast Perth. We went to Jaws Kaiten Sushi in Cinema City Arcade. When Jaws opened in Perth, I remember what a thrill it was to eat at the first and only conveyor belt sushi restaurant in Perth, in the Murray Street Mall. The original Murray St Mall […]
On Sunday last weekend, Jac, Juji and I went along to Feast Perth, a food fair held at Victoria Gardens at Claisebrook Cove in East Perth. This was a City Food and Wine Month event, like the Sausage King Competition. It was a beautifully warm and sunny day and not surprisingly, the fair was very […]
It’s been waaaaay too long since I last posted, and I do apologise. It’s been a very busy week at work and at home. Here’s a plate of char kway teow I ate for brunch last weekend while at the shops. It was very tasty indeed, freshly cooked, garlicky and saucy and loaded with lup […]
Belated text to go with the pictures: This was a very basic cheese and mustard on toast. The cheese was Farmers Union Old Bitey (just the name makes me want to eat it! It is yuuuuuummy cheese!) and we used Australian mustard to add a little more bitey-ness. But just the cheese on its own […]
Jac, VR and I went to my office at uni today to clear out my desk and bring all my crap stuff home. I guess it’s the end of an era, but I don’t feel sad or sentimental about it. I feel like I moved on quite a while ago. No one else was in […]
VR shouted us dinner on Friday night. We went to Sapporo in Carlisle. Jac and I have eaten at Sapporo before (see previous posts: 1, 2, 3). VR hasn’t really eaten much Japanese food before but was keen to give it a go. We each ordered an entree and a main and offered each other […]
Life is looking good at the moment. This was a very average lunch I had last week on a really amazing day. I can’t go into details about the amazingness, but let’s just say I feel very lucky, and very happy. This was toasted turkish-style bread filled with chicken schnitzel, rocket, mozzarella and tomato relish. […]
Dinner made by VR (she’s back with us until Wednesday next week), featuring one of her absolute favourite food items: prawns! These were cold cooked prawns she bought from a fishmonger. Cold prawns, hard-boiled eggs and salad. The prawns were very mild-tasting, but nice – and they had a good texture – I’ve eaten bought [&hel…
