Kingsway in Glen Waverley isn’t just famous for their Asian influenced cuisines like I mentioned in Straits of Malacca, but also for its cafes. Amongst many good coffee joints and great breakfasts, there is Mocha Jo’s, Coco Lounge and Zest 89. I actually visited Zest 89 some time ago late at night and we had […]…
Glen Waverley is really turning into a hub for good food and good fun. Everyone – foodies and non-foodies alike – are flocking here to eat, have fun and buy houses. This of course is driving up property prices, making it near impossible for people like myself to afford a place, and making parking even […]…
Mexican food has been high on the agenda lately. It kind of started with Racheese showing me her prized present from a friend who recently returned from USA – a lollipop with a worm in the middle. I wasn’t too fond of the idea and neither did she, but it did get me thinking. I […]…
It’s strange how lethargic I’ve felt in the last few days. Yuye and I packed on Sunday, all ready to take a flight to China last Monday night but plans changed yet again and we’re now scheduled to head to the airport in less than 3 hours. When I found out I couldn’t leave Monday […]…
I mentioned in a previous post that I don’t post about Chinese restaurants even though that makes up half of my dining experiences and I’ve finally realised why. Every time we go to Chinese restaurants, it’s with my parents. My dad is quite against me taking photos of food. He thinks it’s rude to the […]…
Ever since I was small, I loved watching documentaries. I’d get mesmerised by the deep soothing voices coming out of the TV and the mysterious happenings that I could not understand. I especially liked unsolved cases such as Marilyn Monroe’s death and what the true meaning of Mona Lisa’s smile was. I would often look […]…
I remember horror stories about fish sauce. This was back in my high school days when carrying water guns loaded with fish sauce to squirt people during muck up day/week was considered cool. It was a period of time when not going to school because I got egged by year 12 kids was not really […]…
Airstream Cafe, you disappoint me. I’ve been a long time customer because of the close proximity to home and I never thought it was such a bad place to enjoy a good catchup or a quick meal. That is, until Christmas day. It was a boiling hot day and I was running […]…
I’ve found myself in Springvale a lot recently. After my last “pho” post at Pho Hoang Dakao, I’ve clocked up at least five separate visits for shopping/eating in the span of just a few weeks – with most grocery stores closed for the Christmas holidays, Springvale remains a reliable source of fresh meat and vegetables. […]…
When I think of snow and ponies, the image of a mystical far away land covered with fluffy white snow comes to mind. There’s not a soul in sight, apart from a lone pony trotting in the cold forest. On its back sits a fair skinned princess with blonde long hair, stroking the pony’s hair […]…
