It was Jac’s birthday on the 13th (it was a quiet one this year, more in a post still to come); I went shopping on my own on the weekend before to buy her birthday presents. I started shopping around 10:30am; by the time I thought to come up for air and have something to […]
At a recent lunch at Spencer Village (Spencer Road Shopping Centre, Thornlie) Jac was hoping to get fresh rice paper rolls from the Vietnamese stall, but they were still closed for the holidays. Her next choice was a teriyaki fish salad from the Japanese stall, but it was 11:30am when we got there, and they […]
I loved having that chunk of leftover turkey thigh roast in the fridge after Christmas. This was a very simple dinner I whipped up for myself: slices of turkey thigh roast, microwaved until popping hot, served on Maggi two minute noodles (minus the broth). So simple (and yes, lacking greens!) but very very tasty.
Workmate J and I went to Munch Terrace (Shop 6, 230 Hay St, Corner Bennett St, East Perth) for lunch a couple of Thursdays ago. My blogging and eating friend C (thank you again for a great food lead, C!) told me recently that you can order Munch’s crispy chicken with wantan mee-style noodles instead […]
Last Friday night, Jac and I had dinner with C and P at Penang Foods Restaurant (175 William St, Northbridge). C had told Jac and me about the fantastic laksa, and we were really eager to try it. I arrived first – I’d walked around the shops in town after work – and as soon […]
I found myself running late last Wednesday, and didn’t have time to pack a bento lunch. I also didn’t have time to grab breakfast before leaving for work. When I arrived at the office, I was starving. J was on her way out to get a coffee and told me she’d pick me up something […]
Last Monday J and I decided to get design-your-own noodles for lunch from Noodlebox. J’s favourite sauce whenever she designs her own noodles is oyster sauce. She had thick egg noodles with double broccoli, snow peas, fish cake and roast pork with oyster sauce. I like the oyster sauce noodles too, but decided to try […]
I didn’t take a packed lunch to work last Wednesday. J and I went to our favourite lunch bar, 88 Royal (88a Royal St, East Perth), where I grabbed myself a box of stir-fried curried rice noodles with egg, bean sprouts, onion and slivers of BBQ pork. It had the best aroma! I was really […]
I was in the mood for something from Noodlebox for lunch on Thursday, but I packed Jac a bento lunch. I gave her basically the same lunch as I’d had the day before: meatballs and ranch dip, salad, marinated mushrooms and watermelon. I also packed her a mini Babybel cheese and some bread and butter […]
Here’s some food from Carousel Shopping Centre food hall we enjoyed a couple of Saturdays ago. We started with spring rolls and a skewer of chicken satay with peanut sauce. It wasn’t really authentic-tasting satay – it was just fried chicken on a stick, but very succulent and pretty tasty. The previous week, we’d seen [&hell…
