Let me preface this post with a little story about: TFP and air-sickness The first time I flew in a plane with Jac was years ago when we went to Queensland for her cousin’s wedding. On that flight, I ate the meal (a kind of spring roll with Thai green curry chicken filling, followed by […]
I ate the last of Saturday’s hokkien mee for breakfast. You know, I can’t even remember why, but I got busy with whatever I was doing (replying to emails? tidying the house in readiness for Jac’s return?) and didn’t have any lunch. At around 5pm I realised I was really hungry. Not just really hungry, […]
Wednesday last week (10/10): Jac and I had dinner at the International Food Hall at East Victoria Park. Jac’s been craving a lot of sashimi lately, and chose the sashimi plate from the Japanese stall, which included rice, miso soup and a big bowl of soy sauce for dipping. The sashimi consisted of salmon and […]
I am running so very behind with posts. This was our Chinese home delivery dinner on Saturday last weekend. We had special fried rice, of course. For a change, we chose deepfried chicken with crispy skin. It was just OK – perhaps a little on the dry side. The king prawns were deliciously bursty, and […]
You may have noticed recently there are now ads appearing on various pages of this site. I’ve decided to try and earn some income from the site. I promise there won’t be any popups or pop unders, which personally annoy the hell out of me. I’m still experimenting with different ad programs, display formats and […]
Monday: from Nippon Fare, teriyaki chicken sushi (5 pcs, AU$4.40) and inari sushi (2pcs AU$3.70). One of the inari was filled with sushi rice peppered with black sesame seeds – yummy. The other one had little wisps of green seaweed in the rice (sorry, no photo, but if you look carefully at the photo above […]
Rewind the clock back to last week again… Last Monday’s dinner – a breakfasty meal of beefy sausages, fried eggs and baked beans. Tuesday, a turkey steak, salad and a buttered slice of wholemeal bread. Wednesday, Jac rang me at work and said she felt like Chinese food. Although I didn’t think she’d really eat [……
I’ve been feeling really guilty because one of my friends was in town this week and I told her I couldn’t meet her for lunch. It’s really been a shocking week at work – I won’t – and seriously, can’t – go into details about why, but it was the sort of week during which […]
Another Friday night, two tired people, saved from hunger by home delivery Chinese! Again, we ordered squid with spice and pepper. It looks all clumped together here (which it was), but it was soooo tasty. The squid inside the batter was unbelievably tender. I know I’ve said this before, but it was really amazing. Of […]
So much of our time during the week is taken up with work and sleeping that by the time the weekend comes around Jac and I feel like we’ve hardly spent any time together at all. And so on Saturday morning we went out on a date. Tim sum at The Emperor’s Court (66 Lake […]
