Tag: My 5 Favourite Eating Places

From Chen . I lazy to read thru’ the ‘rules’. When come to food, I just can’t wait to jump into the topic straight away!! :)

FIVE favourite eating places in Perth? Easy! Easy! In fact, I have more than five places!!

1. Hong Kong Barbeque, Northbridge.

I call HK BBQ as my secondary kitchen. Whenever me and Kian lazy to cook over the weekend, we will drive to town, enjoy yummie bbq and roated meat, and of course, the friendly conversation with the staff members.

My favorite dish is roated duck. I would say I order this particular dish most (99%) of the time when I go over. It is very very yummie! They are fresher, the skin is crunchier, and the meat this thicker compared to others. I tried many other restaurants before, neh! They just don’t make me happy.

 

 

How to descripe the ‘un-happiness’? I am thinking.

In adultery term, it is like.. you don’t have enough sex good night sleeps. In nerd term, it is like.. you don’t score more than 80% (or probably slightly less than this), you get cranky, unsatisfied.

By the way, I am half of the nerd. :)

 

 

‘Loh Han Zai’ (Mixed Vege Stir Fry) is my favorite. Oh, minus the fungus.

 

 

And toufu… as usual. I have been eating this hot-plate toufu dish for awhile, I still don’t know what’s the name. Whenever I order toufu, they just know which one to cook for me ;)  

 

 

Yes, this is how often I go there.

2. Ciao Italia, South Perth

 

 

This is a local Italian Restaurant. Approximately 10 min away from my house. They serve absolutely yummie Italian dishes. Oh well, I won’t call it my favourite restaurant if they don’t cook good food, right? Stupid me.

 

 

The pasta is so real! Real as in… they use very organic/original cooking ingredients. Lotsa REAL spices. Not like those opening a can of tomato sauce and poor everything into your pasta. You get what I mean? ;P

 

 

Good food comes with good price too. *smile*

 

 

And the pizza… Kian loves chilli king prawn pizza. He orders it every single time. Do you hear me? Every single time.  

 

 

I don’t mind, really. I enjoy seeing the hot chefs putting all the ingredients on the pizzas-from one pizza to another pizza, and dump them into the wood-fired generated oven.. now, that IS HOT! ;)

3. Thai Corner Restaurant, Applecross 

The food are all well done. Beautifully crafted. If you a big fan of spices like lemongrass, chili, coriander, lemon… yes! Shouldn’t do food post in the morning, espcially I haven’t got any brekky.

Some old photos from my previous post.

 

 

 

 

 

I still ask the same question whenever I go there– this is THAI restaurant, they have all the THAI working there. But I don’t see THAI ah-kuah? (pondan)

 

 

Well, I never been to Bangkok. Bangkok eh. Remind me of American Pie. Stifler asked: What’s the capital of Thailand? BANG KOK!!!

Yeah.. back to food, Bangkok. Yeah, I never been there before, and since I was young, I heard lotsa oldies telling me about the Tiger Show, Pondan Show.. My mind is full of these imagination whenever I think of Thailand. Ermm… how they actually look like?

Bah! For now, we settled on food. THAI food. ok? NEXT!!! (flip another page)

4. Utopia, Northbridge.

If only you like vegetarian chinese food.

 

 

My strict vegetarian friends bring me there… and I bring those not-so-strict vegetarian friends there.

 

 

It is a nice place to sit down and don’t eat meat. For once in a while. :)

But yeah, most of the time, I pop in to grab bubble tea. Oh yeah, bubble tea!!

 

 

Speaking of Bubble Tea…. My favorite bubble tea is peach flavour and bubble (sago) at ALL time. What’s yours?

4. Ciccrella’s Fish and Chips  

Whenever I feel like a dirty and oily fish and chips, we go down to Freo. As dirty as you can get… and all the fat. OH! SO NICE!! 

 

  

Too bad.. no fish and chips photo! I ate them all before I managed to take a photo. Erm, I shall show you next time.. especially the fat/oil that soaked underneath the paper. OH! SO NICE!

By the way, chilli mussels is authentic.

 

 

5. Various Cafes - Miami House, Bicton; Gloria Jeans, Victoria Park; Brew Ha, Subiaco etc etc…….

We both like doing the local thing. Local, as in.. 10-15min away from my house. Eat the local pie and fruit tart. And enjoy a cup of tea/coffee,

 

 

 

 

Speaking of coffee or tea? Are you a coffee person or tea?

Me? TEA! minus sugar. minus milk.

    Well…so far i tried Utopia which i reckon it’s a bit too expensive for me, but still we go once a while…i just can’t deny that their vegetarian food are really nice :D

    The price for the main dishes are abit dear, I must agree with you. But the buffer (lunch) is cheap. You should give it ago. :)
