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.

Tom Yum Gung- Thai spicy food

Do you follow me? Come in.. have a seat :)

I remember when mama cooked me her special Thai food, I was always the last person left dining at the table. Right now, if possible I would ask her to cook me something because I'm too hungry.

In fact living life alone in a foreign country isn't easy to have a nice meal everyday. You won't get what you feel when you are sitting in front of your mama's food, eating with your family and telling them what you have done today. I really miss my mama's foods, Thai spicy food- Tom Yum Gung, with very big fresh prawns and several kinds of herb in it. Luckily, I know how to cook it.

So "Tom Yum Gung" is my dinner today. I bought the fresh ingredients from Thai Town at George Street and big prawns from the fish market and this is it:

Thank you to my cooking class in high school that taught me this delicious and spicy soup, although not every student got an A from this class but I did....honestly!

Omg! I can't live without the chillisssss.
