  • Dumpling King Chinese Restaurant, Newtown

    A place that dares to call itself Dumpling King sounds worthy of a visit from the dumpling queen (that’s me). Well, if nothing else, it certainly sounded like a good dinner option out of the many in Newtown after our film tonight. The Chinese restaurant was quite dark and cramped inside, but the dumpling queen…

  • Aqua S, Regent Place, Town Hall

    Everyone and their dog have been to Aqua S and made a big fuss on social media, so when the good friend told me there’s one near our dinner place, I thought it’s appropriate time for me to get with the times! We got to the Town Hall parlour just before 6:30 pm, and Ellis…

  • Chefs Gallery, Regent Place, Town Hall

    A long overdue catchup dinner with bestest of friends Ellis and a proper revisit at Chefs Gallery Town Hall, with pictures this time! I first came here in Feb 2014 and again two months later in Apr 2014, and really quite enjoyed my meals. I was glad the friend chose this as the venue. We…

  • Bar Angolo Pizzeria, Top Ryde Shopping Centre, Ryde

Italian sounded appetising tonight and…

  • Fruit Platter and Flight Meal on Qantas Flight QF925

    Qantas QF925, 3-hour Cairns-to-Sydney domestic return flight, economy class. I didn’t realise how greasy my phone camera has become over the trip until I looked at these photos! The fruit platter I got on my flight to Cairns wasn’t quite a platter for variety. It got better on the return trip with 6 different fruits…

  • Food and Catering at Pullman Cairns International

    We stayed at the Pullman Cairns International Hotel for the duration of my half business half pleasure work play trip in Cairns, and for the week we had various foods from the hotel restaurant and catering, starting every day with a delicious breakfast at the buffet! Buffet Breakfast I absolutely loved the breakfast buffet, and…

  • Riki Yakiniku Dining Bar, Orchid Plaza, Cairns

    We’d been eyeing this yakiniku place since the first day, but thought it would be too heavy a dinner after our daily breakfast buffet and lunch. Today we’d been out snorkelling for a couple of hours, and that sort of maybe justifies eating yakiniku? Yes? Yes! I already told you Orchid Plaza was very much…
