Other than Chinese food, Thai food is probably the next popular Asian cuisine in Sydney, if not on par. We have been to a couple of Thai restaurants before and they’re usually packed with customers. Last weekend, we decided to give Spice Gourmet Thai a shot since we were craving for something hot and spicy…

Today’s post is contributed by a guest writer, Tom Lee, who is also a lover of fish! The following recipe is something that I ate all the time when I was younger. Coming from a family with a Chinese heritage, steamed foods were very common. My favorite was a soy sauce steamed fish. The finished…

In the spirit of Malaysia’s elections coming, I will be featuring more Malaysian food found in Sydney here. Somehow, having Malaysian food does make one feel closer to the country, especially when the restaurant is a franchise from Malaysia! Yes, I have previously dined in several Malaysian restaurants that were founded locally in Australia but…

Being Malaysians, we do constantly crave for a taste of home. So when I heard about Penang Cuisine from my fellow colleagues who went there for lunch, I told Saucer that we simply had to give it a try. My colleagues who were non-Malaysians gave pretty good ratings for the restaurant, so I was quite…

One of the recipes that I love to follow when the weather is cold and I feel lazy is a good Lasagne. I have only started to make lasagne after I moved to Australia, simply because I always thought it to be something too rich and filling to cook for 2 people. But during the…

It has been ages since my last update, I know. I have been so busy with work recently with a new task assignment on top of my current workload that I found it difficult to allocate time for blogging! Anyway, I looked through my album and discovered a place that I had been wanting to…

A couple of weeks back, we spotted a Groupon deal for all-you-can-eat Lebanese food and contemplated on whether to get it since we didn’t quite trust group-buying purchases. We decided to get it in the end because it had been a while since we last had Lebanese food and we missed the bread with hummus!…

I know I have just written about Korean food in my previous post, but believe it or not, writing that post triggered my cravings for yet another round of Korean food! So last weekend, Saucer and I ventured to the Korean part of Eastwood to satisfy my cravings. There were plenty of Korean restaurants just…

What is your favourite Korean dish? For me, the one dish that I always never fail to order is either the Kimchi Soup or the Pork Tofu Soup. It really depends on my mood on whether I’d like something spicy that day or something milder, but I always love a good warm Korean soup. We…

I don’t know about you, but I love XO sauce! Ever since I had my first taste of XO sauce at a relative’s place, I was always on the search for XO sauce to go with everything. Fortunately, XO Sauce is easily available here in Sydney, albeit at a premium. Some grocery stores even keep…

Sometimes, when I run out of ideas on what to cook for dinner, I just do a quick look in the kitchen cabinets and fridge, and try to whip up something with whatever that caught my eyes. So on that particular evening, the farfalle pasta caught my attention, and I started to scout for something…

It’s time for yum cha again! The previous yum cha we had was in Sea Treasure, which was, to me, a little on the posh side. This time, we drove all the way to Cabramatta in the West, for some good old Vietnamese Chinese dim sum. Vinh Phat is a restaurant opened by Vietnamese Chinese…

When we were wine-tasting in Hunter Valley, we drove past a huge building crowded with people a couple of times, and decided to make a pit stop there for lunch. This was actually the grounds of Tempus Two Winery, but shared by various eateries and shops, including a particularly interesting Hunter Valley Smelly Cheese Shop….

It goes without saying that I’m a huge, huge fan of Chilli Pan Mee. I also think that it has the highest number of posts of the same category in my blog, and deservingly so, because they’re so good! Unfortunately, one of the drawbacks of living in Australia is the non-existence of Chilli Pan Mee!…
