Breakfast on your iphone

When I first saw this video on one website, I said to myself - "How amazing it is!!" Can we really eat it? Or it is just faked food? But after I had finished watching this video. I made sure that i had it for tomorrow's breakfast :)

Although, I do not own an iphone, i found this a really creative idea and it brings me to the importance of having good breakfast. You can see from the topping for example egg, kiwi, salmon in olive and other vegetables are all really essential to our body.

According to multiple of reliable sources, this iSandwich 4G video is delicious. How Microsoft will eat lunch knowing that this new menu is on offer, I do not know... HAHAHA

I shall stop blabbering. Watch it for youself -

Noooodle.. or Ramen

After we had made several reviews on Asian Food, today I have come back with another A.S.I.A.N. dish again.The dish I am proud to present is Ramen!! I really love its pork soup with it's big pieces of meat, seaweed, half boiled egg in a bowl full of thick noodles..

Ramen comes in different flavours with different topping such as egg, pork belly, scallions, nori seaweed, onion and butter (how come?). When I first saw that butter in my Ramen, I was surprised but at the end the waitress told me that it makes the soup more "Creamy and Thicky..". HAHA Thicky??

When people eat their Ramen, it is best if you eat it loudly. It means you are paying respect to Ramen Chef. Many times I have noticed people eating, it is very very very noisily and i wondered why. So I didn't want to be different and started loudly slurping away. =D

You can find Ramen restaurants everywhere, especially on Asian Streets. The price is usually between $9.50- 35.00 according to your choice. Some restaurants might be so full that you may have to queue.

Cheers!

Italian Pizza

(Photo from Foodies)

Italian Pizzas are one of the most delicious food. The history of it and the way to cook it are also very interesting.

Many many people think that pizza was created by the Italians themselves, however, there is a funny story behind it. Long ago, a traveler, Marco Polo, came to China and ate a CongYou cookie. When he went back to Italy, he missed the taste of CongYou cookie so much that he tried to cook it. In China, people put filling inside the CongYou cookie, but Marco put all filling outside the cookie. Then he tasted that cookie, he thought it was yummy, though it was not CongYou cookie.
Later, this kind of cookie was spread and it was named the Pizza.

I like the pizza and enjoy it very much. I hope you like it too.

More chilli?

Yeah unfortunately. I guess, if you don't like chilli foods, then don't bother reading further. Well actually, this post isn't anything spectacular either. It's just a restaurant review. To give an overview... i've given this restaurant 2/10 BUTTTTT the catch to this is....it's only $10!!!

To add to the wonderfulness of this restaurant....i've forgotten it's name.

Let me give you an example of the food choices we were given:

It doesn't even look that appetising. *sigh*

Maybe my plate of rice cakes do...



Fine..yes i know...fail! I'm such a fail photographer!! I won't have a career in this industry anyways.

So down to the details, this restaurant is located across the road from Haymarket and a few minutes away from UTS (and central station). It's in the same building as Menya (if you have heard of this popular Japanese restuarant) and Cho's dumpling king. (This does suggest something right? I remember the names of the restaurants around the one i went...that's just plain SAD)

The choice of dishes there was tiny! They weren't particularly tasty either, some dishes were too bland while others were too salty or oily. I just enjoyed the ricecakes as they were chilli and thus not salty or oily or sweet etc etc etc.

Ermmm... there's this funny rule where u can only use ONE plate! Yes ONE! And you're meant to reuse the plate. =/ To us buffet goers we thought it was unusual and plain disgusting! We seriously had no idea what to do with our bones so we decided to ignore the rule and just get another plate. Muahah...

For dessert we were only given oranges. Yep JUST oranges. And remember the one plate rule...we had no idea where to put them. So we had oranges with chilli sauce. Fail isn't it?

So yes a 2/10 is pretty generous. Don't you think? Oh well hopefully i can bring you a better review next time.

Sushi

Hi! The food I proudly present today is (tick tock tick tock).. not spicy, not fat.. Sushi! Sushi is the most famous Japanese dish outside of Japan, and one of the most popular dishes among the Japanese themselves. In Japan, sushi is usually enjoyed on special occasions, such as birthday or celebration. But in Sydney, sushi is easy to find everywhere and the price isn't expensive. Some well-known sushi restaurants are 'sushi king' and 'sushi train'.

The restaurant where I am taking you to is located in Chatswood, 5-minute walking from Chatswood train station, the restaurant's name is "Makoto".

When you are entering to the restaurant, you can hear waitress saying welcome in Japanese (haha, I can't remember what they actually said- forgive me! ), then they will take you to the seat that located around the sushi train.

I have picked a lot of sushi, but the best of all I can show is.. this one

How does it look? This is the roasted salmon roll with avocado and scallop on top. It goes very well if putting a little but of Japanese soy sauce and wasabi (green spicy paste), taste is heaven :D and when people have sushi, they normally eat it with hot green tea as it would not destroy sushi taste like other soft drink or alcohol.

I think today you have another place for dinner, next time I will take you to a different place to taste different thing.

Cheers!

Family dinners

My family and i were in Auburn the other day, choosing a restaurant to eat at, we saw this ad:



A world class Chinese cultural show from New York, portraying difference aspects of Chinese culture through dancing and music. We watched it last year when their tour group came to Sydney. They were truly astounding. We learnt so much more about the Chinese heritage just by enjoying the show. I recommend this to anyone any day, especially those interested in Chinese foods. XD

Therefore, we ended up eating at a Chinese restaurant (which mainly specialised cooking dishes from the South) called Yum Yum Brasserie across from the station. One of the dishes i liked in particular was this:



Combination bean curd hot pot~

It basically consists a combination of ingredients ranging from veges, meat and seafood cooked in a pretty salty sauce. Served with rice, it was truly divine! Well of course we ordered other dishes such as fish, seasonal vegetables and chicken but i couldn't help but choose from that hot pot. I guess the sauce really captured me.

Generally, the service was average. We had to go to a table to collect our utensils and cutlery. Waiting time was pretty short, which was surprising since the restaurant was pretty full.

Pancakes on the rocks

Happy Easter!

I went to Cockle Bay taking my friends with me. We went to Pancakes on the rocks. Since i remembered I had to blog on this blog so i thought it was a good chance to share about pancakes with you.

The food we ordered are "Fisherman's Catch" and "Seafood Crepes"

Fisherman's Catch : crumbed fillets of flathead served with chips, tartare sauce and mixed lettuce.

Seafood Crepes : fillets of fish, prawns, scallops, mushrooms, and spring onions in a creamy white wine sauce. Served with lemon wedge, hollandaise sauce and seafood sauce.

But if you are there, you can see other dishes like gourmet pizza, salad and dessert. They come in really big serves. And if you can't finish it, you can it take away.

One thing that might be useful to you, if you're there in the holidays, there is a 10% surcharge (which is a bad thing) and the queue is really long (which is equally as bad). So you can phone in to reserve the table before hand.

See you again next time. I bet you can't guess what my next destination is....

Hello, everyone!

Hi readers! I'm one of the three, Lynn. It's my first time to build up a blog with a group. The topic of our blog is food and it's one of my favourite. Lol.I'm a girl from China. China has a different system of food and its food tradition is historical. So, it's no doubt that I love food! Every time when I just think about my meal, I even feel wonderful. Haha... Now let me introduce the food I like most.In China, the most spicy food is not in Sichuan as people usually thought, it's in Hu Nan. However, we have a system of food called ChuanCai which includes almost all kinds of spicy food.
Are you hungry now? It's a torment as I just can see them without having them. In China, restaurants serve Chuancai can be found in every city and they are usually very crowed, some even need to book in advance. It's not difficult to find that spicy food is very popular in China.But after I came to Australia, it's hard to find these authetic restaurants. So I changed my taste. I also like cheese now especially lasagna. It has several levels and enough ingredients. It tastes yummy!It's my first post, just a try. Then, I will post other interesting images and texts. Thx for reading!
