Dear 2013, As the first day of your year ends, I wonder what the other 364 days will bring. If it was anything like your first hour, watching the city skyline burst gloriously into frame accompanied by good company then I hope that this new year will continue in this vein. All I want this… Continue reading Hello 2013,

Meatless Monday – Pear & Raspberry Bread and I wish you hadn’t asked
It is wet. I am standing inside a room dripping with water from its roof. Inside this little cottage, the smell of wet woollen rug and the metallic sound of water hitting metallic surface was overwhelmed by the sense of quiet that blanketed the room. I am in a dream, someone else’s or mine or… Continue reading Meatless Monday – Pear & Raspberry Bread and I wish you hadn’t asked
MSG #22 – Ending the year at Misky Cravings
I was craving a bit of Peruvian cuisine, feeling nostalgic after my trip to Peru a few months back. I was really excited when I heard of the Peruvian restaurant Misky Cravings from Grab Your Fork‘s review in Timeout. The word Misky means delicious or yum in Quechua (the ancient language of the Andean people), highly appropriate for this… Continue reading MSG #22 – Ending the year at Misky Cravings
Happy Lunar New Year…dragon style!
If you were not glued to the telly watching the epic marathon of a match between Nadal and Djokovic you might be with the other half of Sydney who were out in force along George Street watching the Twilight Parade. It has been a long time since I venture out to the city to see the… Continue reading Happy Lunar New Year…dragon style!
Catching up at The Bridge Room
Sometimes (actually a lot!) in life, one can have too many photos sitting site unseen and not enough time to catch up with friends. Through Lemonpi’s sheer persistence, a group of us manager to find our way at The Bridge Room. After multiple attempts of trying to find a date, the heavenly calendar finally opened… Continue reading Catching up at The Bridge Room
MSG #19 – Sydney Portugal Community Club Restaurant Marrickville
After talking about doing a planned tour of Sydney’s Community Club, we finally went to our second community club as one of the Midweek Supper Group outings (the Japanese Club, being the first and I still need to blog it!). Yewenyi suggested the Portuguese Community Club in Marrickville and that fit the bill of being… Continue reading MSG #19 – Sydney Portugal Community Club Restaurant Marrickville
Malaysian Kitchen Market – but don’t bring your vegetarian friends here
Nearly a quarter into the year and this year is crazily moving a little too quick for me yet again. I remembered thinking that I should post the photo above in early January and almost 2 months later here we are. So what’s new? Sydney seemed to have really picked up recently with the Malaysian… Continue reading Malaysian Kitchen Market – but don’t bring your vegetarian friends here
Sydney Festival 2011 and the magical luminarium Mirazozo
There are still a couple of GBs of photos from last year, but I had to push them aside and start uploading photos from the Sydney Festival. I have been looking forward to this event the moment the brochure landed in my mailbox late last year. Every year the Sydney Festival seems to grow just… Continue reading Sydney Festival 2011 and the magical luminarium Mirazozo
Sydney 2010 – 2011
Just like that 2011 is here and although this post had been sitting on my draft for a while, I never had the chance to post it until this side of 2011. I have too many things to post and not enough time to do reflect and upload in 2010. Doesn’t help that my… Continue reading Sydney 2010 – 2011
October is the month to be
Been a little distracted with life in general. I’m not quite sure what happened in the past few months, but I am running on minimum sleep with very little time to glance at the rear view mirror and write about anything anymore. Stretched so thin I’m cellophane’s second cousin twice removed. That being said, I… Continue reading October is the month to be
