k’s away for 2 weeks so i’ve had to fend for myself. so when my colleague D suggested i try his amazing crumbed chicken breast. according to him, all i needed was an egg, some dijon mustard, breadcrumbs and a chicken breast. but when i asked him just to recap the recipe again, he insisted [...]

when i started this blog, k started encouraging me to take more photos of my meals. previously, he would physically recoil if i ever took my camera out to photograph food in public! his logic and motive is clear though:
but babe you could become famous, and then i won’t have to work!!
my other half, a [...]
fun in the kitchen – spagbol

fusbol to be exact. i think that everyone has their own variation of how they think a bolognese sauce should be. my godmother doesn’t eat beef so she made her bolognese with chicken mince and served it with processed tasty cheese which is as far off from the original as it could be but still [...]
fun in the kitchen – noodle soup

much as i love dining out, i can’t actually afford to eat in restaurants every single day. i don’t normally take photos of all the food i eat outside either.. i do cook dinners at least 4 nights a week though so in the interest of giving my handful of readers something to read fairly [...]
otis – albert park

i think i might finally have converted k into a brunch fan. it didn’t even take any persuasion to convince him that waking up at 9.30 on a sunday morning to head out for a meal was a good idea! as he was playing basketball with his mates after, i decided to visit my trusty [...]
crabapple cupcakes – prahran
Posted in cupcakes, melbourne on September 20, 2008 | 5 Comments »
k adores cupcakes. to him, the more sprinkles and pink/pretty icing the better! i liked them but never actually got obsessed with them until k introduced me to crabapple (in the prahran markets). unfortunately the company has now gone into liquidation which sucks because they certainly had the best cupcakes i’ve ever tasted!
you get the [...]
botanical – south yarra
Posted in age good food guide 2010, brunch, melbourne on September 20, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
the botanical (169 domain road, south yarra) is certainly a beautiful place. light and airy, facing a park and with a massive glass cabinet of wine bottles down the back, you go in (or i did anyway) expecting great service and great food. TBB had given the bot 17/20 so we decided to give it [...]
cafe villa – perth
Posted in brunch on September 18, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
i went back to perth recently on a whirlwind trip and i managed to have brekkie with the girls. one of them had mentioned hash browns and leederville in the same sentence, so that was where we headed!
cafe villa (corner of oxford and newcastle streets) was already buzzing by the time we got there so [...]
squire’s loft – best steak in melbourne to date
Posted in melbourne, steak on September 15, 2008 | 2 Comments »
i’ve been putting off blogging about squire’s loft because none of my pictures justify how good the steak is. but i’m fast running out of food pictures for now so i better use all that i have.
i was first introduced to squire’s loft in the city when i came to melbourne for a holiday and [...]
replete providore

i visited replete providore (302 barkers road, hawthorn) while i was in the midst of my corn fritter craze. the breakfast blog had given the honour of best corn fritters to replete (although the blogger later visited mart 130 and said it was equally as good if not better). while i still think that filter [...]
