We ate the last of the Nandos chicken with fresh spinach, grape tomatoes and mushrooms, and Jac made a pasta salad. As you can see, there wasn’t a lot of chicken on my plate. We’d eaten almost half a chicken each, so there wasn’t much left over for the next day! I loved the pasta […]
25/05/2008 – savoury chops (a family recipe, made with lamb chops), with garlic mashed potatoes and steamed green vegetables (broccoli and green beans). The carrots were cooked in the casserole dish with the chops, and they were sweet and delicious. For dessert, Jac made what she called cheat’s trifle. We didn’t have any swiss rol…
This is what happens when I get busy during the week. You get two weeks’ worth of work lunches in a single post! Monday (two weeks ago) – SRM, J and I went to Mai’s Vietnamese Restaurant (51 Bennett St, East Perth). SRM had the soy sauced chicken rice, a dish I’ve ordered previously. He […]
Here’s a large pasta combination (AU$10.50) we shared recently, from Aroma Cafe. Ravioli bolognaise: Potato bake: Penne in a creamy sauce with spinach and mushrooms: Tortellini in a creamy ham sauce: Sadly, it was rather bland. What is it with bland food these days? I don’t need over-salted food, I just want well-seasoned food. We [&hel…
Here are last week’s lunches! Monday – SRM, Chad and I got takeaway from Sushi @ Royal (Shop 2, 131 Royal St). SRM had fish katsu (AU$8.00). Chad had the agedashi tofu (AU$7.00). The sauce was packed in a separate container so that the battered tofu wouldn’t be soggified during the takeaway journey. Back at […]
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 […]
As the title says, I can’t believe I’m 32 and the first time I ever went to Sizzler was Wednesday last week. That place is so ME! It’s not fancy, but there’s lots to eat and I love buffets! Upon arrival we joined the queue and ordered main courses, which included salad bar, and paid […]
I had dinner with a colleague and friend, V, last Thursday evening. We went to The Royal (Corner Plain and Royal Streets, East Perth). I’m actually quite surprised we found time to eat that night, as we just talked and talked and talked and talked! Although we’ve worked under the same roof within sight of […]
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…
I’m running behind yet again with posts and comment/email replies. Here are some of our dinners from the past week or so as I try to catch up. I just don’t have enough time on weeknights. It’s so frustrating. Bring on the weekend. 10/02/2008. I stir-fried some green vegies – bok choy and snow peas […]
