  • Bar Angolo Pizzeria, Top Ryde Shopping Centre, Ryde

    It was getting quite late after a secret event I attended in the area (hint: the word “girt” was used in the event), so instead of our original plan of driving to a nearby suburb for familiar food, we decided to try something in the nearby-nearby Top Ryde Shopping Centre. Italian sounded appetising tonight and…

  • Mother’s Day 2015

    I don’t get to celebrate Mother’s Day with my own mum because I live overseas, but this year I get to do that with R mum, who prepared chicken casserole for dinner and apricot almond slice for dessert! I know, I know. It’s totally wrong of us to let her cook dinner on Mother’s Day,…

  • Sammy’s Restaurant, Gymea

    Sometimes it’s hard for me to tell whether it’s my overly strict and traumatising upbringing that influenced my views, or some parents just don’t parent. Your toddler won’t stop pointing and yelling at someone at the next table, you smile at him and let him continue through the night. Your toddler throws his dummy at…

  • Hakiki Turkish Ice Cream, Newtown

    We still had a bit of time before our comedy show tonight and I was predictably still hungry after the dinner.

Richard previously read pretty good reviews about Japan Village, so when we walked past, we thought, why not? (In hindsight, we…

  • Moim Japanese Kitchen, Kirrawee

    Moim Kitchen in Kirrawee offers predominantly Japanese foods such as sushi, sashimi and udon, but also other Asian dishes such as Korean bulgogi and bibimbap, and Chinese-inspired sweet and sour chicken. We had a 7:30 pm booking for our catch-up dinner, with two vegetarians at our table of eight! We were unfortunate enough tonight to…

  • Din Tai Fung, Westfield Miranda

    Everyone’s favourite Taiwanese dumpling place Din Tai Fung (鼎泰豐) opened yet another branch in Sydney. We previously visited one in Hong Kong, and later at Central Park after discovering for the first time that the franchise existed in Australia (yeah, we know). We’d been talking about trying this new Westfield Miranda branch, and tonight was…
