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 […]
From 88 Royal Lunch bar (88a Royal St, East Perth). A chewy, toasted sesame seed bun. An ultra crispy chicken fillet with surprisingly moist chicken breast inside. Fresh tomato and lettuce. A slathering of mayonnaise. Big, delicious bites. Always good.
I was craving a McChicken recently and went to McDonald’s and got one. Sometimes I don’t try to fight the cravings – they just hang around or come back even more powerful than before. The McChicken was great, but the fries were sad and soggy. Sad, but that seems to be the way most of […]
Another pre-Christmas post! This one, lunch with work colleagues at the Grosvenor Hotel (339 Hay St, Perth). TC had the Morrocan chicken panini – the bread was toasted and filled with grilled fillets of Morrocan spiced chicken, as well as bacon, cheese, avocado, tomato, lettuce and ranch sauce, served with seasoned beer battered chips ($AU$18…
Last Saturday, Jac grabbed us lunch bar burgers for brunch. I had a hamburger with lettuce, tomato, fried onions and barbecue sauce. I thought it was great that the beef pattie was the same size as the lightly toasted soft, chewy bun. It was a simple burger, but absolutely delicious. Jac had the same, but […]
Another recent brunch at Hungry Jack’s (known as Burger King outside of Australia – see Wikipedia entry for information about Burger King/Hungry Jack’s in Australia). A Bacon Deluxe meal for Jac, and a Crispy Chicken Wrap meal for me. Jac’s already drinking her Diet Coke, which is why it’s not pictured here. I really e…
For lunch last Friday I had a chicken schnitzel burger from 88 Royal lunch bar (88a Royal St, East Perth). These are always good. The chicken is freshly deep-fried and super-crunchy on the outside, tender and moist on the inside. Along with the schnitzel, there’s lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise in the chewy, lightly toasted bun. […]
Jac made burgers for dinner recently, with these fancy-topped burger buns she bought from. She toasted them to a light golden-brown under the grill. We had a lot of mushrooms to use up, so I suggested we have fried onions and mushrooms in our burgers. With lettuce, tomato, smokey barbecue sauce and 100% beef patties […]
Last Saturday, we celebrated my niece Ruby’s first birthday. Ruby’s proud parents, my brother Mark and sister-in-law Ange, really put on a feast for all the friends and family who attended! The first things I ate upon arrival were a couple of these delicious mini frittatas, made by Ange. Jac happily helped herself to cheese, […]
Last Saturday Jac and I had brunch at The Cuckoo Chef cafe at Carousel Shopping Centre. We’ve eaten there before – I wrote about it in an article published at EatingWA. Jac was in a burger sort of mood. She ordered the chicken and bacon burger (AU$12.25), which was absolutely bursting with roast chicken, bacon, […]
