It’s a Saturday evening and I am running late for the bonus supper in Auburn, cursing the western bound traffic on Parramatta Road all the way until I reached Mado Cafe. Brian, K and KL were already waiting as I rushed in apologising before sinking into one of the booths against the side of the… Continue reading Bonus MSG Supper – Mado Cafe

Taste of Sydney (or London)
It’s a beautiful summer evening. The sun was still high in the sky and as we walked closer towards Centennial Park for Taste of Sydney with some crowns in our pocket, the nagging sense of dejavu did not ease. Flashback to last June, when I was wandering Regents Park at Taste of London, it all… Continue reading Taste of Sydney (or London)
A Valentine preview
It’s been a while. Moving house, a draining busy work schedule and simply doing too much meant that I have very little time to process my own thoughts. Unfortunately, unless something major happens in the near future, the situation is unlikely to change. Sunday will mark the double celebration of Chinese New Year and Valentine… Continue reading A Valentine preview
Midweek Supper Group (MSG) – #4 Faheem Fast Food in Stanmore
You know when the food is good when I had to fend hands from dragging a plate of chicken away before I can take a shot. It was another Midweek Supper Group (MSG) meetup and we were in Faheem Fast Food in Stanmore on a Wednesday evening. Their sign outside of this humble looking establishment… Continue reading Midweek Supper Group (MSG) – #4 Faheem Fast Food in Stanmore
Sydney’s Food Blogger Christmas Picnic
I somehow managed to earn the right to be a food blogger for some reason. How else, did I manage to score an invitation to Sydney’s biggest food blogger event last Sunday? Organised by the lovely Helen and Suze, it was the biggest gathering of foodies I have ever encountered. The group met in Hyde… Continue reading Sydney’s Food Blogger Christmas Picnic
By the sea
The rather insane heat wave in the past week was an unwelcome reminder of how hot the Australian summer can be. Scanning through photos of last week’s visit to Sculpture by the Sea I wonder what will power prevented me from flinging myself into the sea rather than be jostled around by the thousands of… Continue reading By the sea
Hats Off at Becasse
I honestly can’t believe October is just a memory and December just around the corner. I turned another year older during the multiple celebrations of food, and a meal at Becasse a few days after this momentous event seemed fitting. “Hats Off” has been a staple of the SIFF for years. The idea is that… Continue reading Hats Off at Becasse
Arola at Bentley (World Showcase Dinner)
One would think that one World Showcase Dinner in a month, let alone a year is enough to last for a while. Then again, if the experience was so great, why not repeat it? It’s a week after Bras at Quay, Y and I were the first to arrive for the World Showcase Dinner with… Continue reading Arola at Bentley (World Showcase Dinner)
Bras at Quay
It’s Monday evening and I am on my way towards Circular Quay to join Y, M and Mitch for a World Chef Showcase dinner with Sebastiean Bras at Quay restaurant. On a day where most of are cursing the start of yet another work week, it is the unofficial day off for the lovely people… Continue reading Bras at Quay
Spice I Am
With the plethora of amazing food blogs scattered around Sydney, sometimes I wonder whether the world needs another review on yet another Sydney restaurant. Particularly when sites like Not Quite Nigella, Chocolatesuze and Grab Your Fork are so well written with their own quirky personalities. Then ofcourse sites such as A Table for Two are… Continue reading Spice I Am
