Popiah afternoon tea
Do you enjoy MYO-style meals with your family?
Whenever we have a family get-together, I hope my mum will cook up a batch of her hokkien mee. To my delight, more often than not, she walks in with a big pot of noodles. I’ve had lots of requests for my mum’s Hokkien mee recipe since my recent post about my niece Ruby’s 4th […]
We’ve driven past Rasa Nyonya Penang on Albany Highway many times but only tried it for the first time this Monday night after work. It’s hard to tell how busy it is from outside in the street and I was surprised as we stepped through the door to see that it was about two-thirds full, […]
Hokkien mee with chicken (AU$9.50) from Sun Sun at Carousel Shopping Centre. I bought it takeaway, popped it in a bowl when I got home, swapped the disposable wooden chopsticks for a pair of our plastic ones and tucked in. I find the disposable wooden chopsticks you get with Chinese or Japanese takeaway annoyingly splintery, […]
Back to my whinge about weekends not being long enough, we ended up spending most of last Saturday shopping. And not even fun shopping, like for DVDs, books, electrical appliances or gadgets (well, that’s fun shopping to me!).

The day before Jac got home from Brisbane, Saturday 24th November, was Federal Election Day. I woke up with a terrible craving for a Filet O Fish. I got up, did a few household chores, wandered over to the local primary school to vote, then went to McDonald’s. The Filet O Fish really hit the […]
EDIT: Chad and I found a new noodle place! It’s Perth Noodle Wok, just off Rokeby Road, on the same side of the street as the post office, sort of diagonally opposite Simon Johnson. It’s a little far up Rokeby Road for our liking – but we’ll definitely grab our takeaway box of noodles for […]
With Jac away this weekend I decided to go for a walk to the shops.* I’ve been craving Filet O Fish and McNuggets for a couple of weeks now, and so today I had both for brunch. I still miss the dark meat McNuggets. The batter is as delicious as ever, but I wish they […]
Thank you, everyone, for your comments and emails and best wishes for Jac’s speedy recovery. I will reply to comments as soon as I can! But for now, I promised food photos, and here they are! It seems like an eternity ago, but this was my dinner of cold chicken (leftover from Jac’s birthday dinner) […]
After having a cuppa at Jac’s mum’s house and saying good-bye to her brother who was returning to Sydney in the afternoon, we had lunch at our favourite asian food hall. I had hokkien mee. Jac had yong tau foo. I didn’t take a picture of it because it looked exactly like this photo I […]
