Monday – I ate lunch by myself at Toraya Sushi while reading a book. Look! A heart-shaped spring onion! I ordered the teriyaki chicken lunch box, large size (AU$15.00). I really felt like having the karaage donburi (AU$9.00), but once again wanted to avoid eating a big bowl of fried chicken. With the large size […]

My plan is to eat less deep fried and “bad” foods for lunch, for as long as I can keep it up. Regular readers will know how much I love bad food. I don’t plan to make any radical changes – there’ll still be burgers and pies in my diet, though perhaps not as often. […]

Work lunches + a breakfast

Monday: I bought three items from Woolworths (yep, the supermarket!) for my lunch. First, one of those assemble-your-own caesar salad packs (AU$4.48), which came with prewashed lettuce and little packets of dressing, grated parmesan and croutons. No bacon bits (normally these are crispy bacon-flavoured *bits* that have no real bacon whatsoever in t…

Monday: my workmate BK and I got lunch takeaway from Perth Noodle Wok. BK and SRM both had the Chilli Noodle Box (AU$10.80), both hot (you can choose mild, medium or hot, and BK and SRM are chilli fiends, so they wanted their noodles to be HOT hot). As he ate his noodles, SRM was […]

Another afternoon tea at work

We had afternoon tea on Friday to farewell S and also to celebrate R’s birthday. R brought along two cakes to share. First was this fruits of the forest cheese cake, purchased from Fresh Provisions in Mount Lawley. That’s a lot of cream, eh? The berry jelly glaze on the cheese cake as well as […]

Thank you to everyone who left responses to the wee burger quiz from the previous post. If you haven’t read the comments for that post, you should – they are interesting and rather hungrifying themselves! Monday: A toasted spinach wrap with chicken, lettuce, sundried tomatoes, pineapple and corn kernels from MYO. Tuesday: A tandoori piz…
