Since a number of years ago, a unique food culture has gathered in the heart of Glen Waverley. The mix of Asian and cafe influences has seen many new restaurant openings and causing a sharp increase in foodies flocking to the area, along with it an unfortunate decrease in parking availability. The restaurants on the [...]

Call me a sheep but I just had to try out Hardware Societe after reading so many blog posts about this little hidden gem (not so hidden anymore). It serves French/Spanish breakfast and lunch dishes (unfortunately no dinner yet) during weekdays and now on Saturdays as well until 2pm. This place is probably totally packed [...]

This will be the last post that’s related to my birthday I promise. So since I had celebrated with my friends and boyfriend (Yuye), my parents wanted a share of the festivity as well (at my expense of course…doh).

I must say eating in a large group and taking photos for my blog don’t work well together. In this case when we went to Sushi Masa in the city with 9 people, all I remember was taking photos and almost didn’t really get to enjoy my food! There were just too many dishes to [...]

Yuye took me to Chez Olivier Le Bistro in Prahran for my birthday the other week (I know, I had a lot of birthday dinners, another one with my family to come ). Chez Olivier is set amongst art and fashion stores on a small street in Prahran (near the Prahran Station), it really does [...]

However they took too long so I thought I’d write it before my senile brain forgets everything. EDIT – Urbanspoon has now changed [...]

We went to Bombay By Night for a friend’s birthday recently and I was quite interested to see what it was like since this restaurant has been on The Age Good Food Guide every year since 1996 (except 1998 and 1999, I don’t know what happened there). The first thing we noticed about the place [...]

So, to celebrate 1,000 views on Ichigo Shortcake (wooo!), we’re introducing a new segment in addition to my regular restaurant blog posts: Yuye’s Ramen Corner. As the name suggests, my sidekick Yuye is going to review all about ramen, hand pulled Japanese wheat noodles served in broth with a variety of condiments. Eating ramen has [...]

A recent visit to a restaurant sparked a thought that I wanted to share with all of you (rather, I’m posting this more for my own sake because probably not many people will be reading this). It’s common knowledge that there has been an outbreak of food blogs in recent years, giving birth to many [...]
