Running a little behind! Here are last week’s work lunches. Wednesday – J and I grabbed an early lunch from Munch Terrace (Shop 6, 230 Hay St, Corner Bennett St East Perth). She chose the combination ho fun in egg sauce (AU$8.00). The noodles had been fried in brown sauce (oyster? soy? not hiding my […]
Jac made a chicken and vegetable (green beans, carrots and broccoli) balti curry last weekend, which she served with mini pappadams. I love this kind of curry sauce, with an oniony and tomatoey base. It’s fragrant and spicy without blowing your head off (though of course if you wanted it super hot you could simply […]
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…
Still running behind with posts! Here’s lunch from two Saturdays ago: we shared fried kway teow from Sun Sun at the Carousel Shopping Centre food hall. It seemed paler and less saucy than usual, and there was no fish cake or sliced beef in it. No fish cake! I was disappointed and dissatisfied. The chilli […]
Last night, while Jac was at hockey, I dug around in the freezer and found this Lean Cuisine – Thai Green Chicken Curry with rice. Jac knows how terribly lazy I am when it comes to cooking for myself on week nights, so she likes to buy a few ready meals to stash in the […]
Monday last week – J and I grabbed a quick early lunch at Munch Terrace (Shop 6, 230 Hay St, Corner Bennett St East Perth). She had a craving for hokkien mee. I must say it looked absolutely delectable, all saucy and gleaming on the plate. She was a little disappointed however, that there was […]
12/4/2008 – Jac made a stew using a tin of cream of chicken soup, chicken stock, chicken thigh pieces, potatoes, carrots, celery and onions. She baked it in the oven in a casserole dish. It smelled and looked absolutely fantastic. She served me up a big bowl of the chicken stew with steamed broccoli and […]
Tuesday – honey chicken and fried rice (AU$7.00) from 88 Royal (88a Royal St, East Perth). The tender battered chicken was smothered in a sweet and sticky syrupy sauce. The fried rice was delicious, with fried egg, sliced Chinese barbecue pork and onions in it. Wednesday – I grabbed a takeaway two-meat curry combination from […]
We started out in Subiaco but moved to the new office by the end of the week. Monday – I got myself a toasted hot cross bun from Cafe Cafe (Shop 20, 29 Station St, opposite Subiaco Train Station) for morning tea. They’d toasted it in the sandwich press, which is why it turned out […]
4/3/2008 – Jac cooked up some potatoes with mixed herbs, topped with a little melted cheese. She served the potato dish with lamb steaks which she’d marinated with a tasty combination of Worchestershire sauce, tomato sauce, garlic and fresh rosemary and then pan-fried, and a vegetable medley, of carrot, peas and corn. She’d cooked…
