Stumbled this when I went to try out this new restaurant in Glen Waverly.



Tokyo (Day 8 to 13) : I eat therefore I am

13 February 2008 at 8:52 am » Comments (0)

My mate and I decided to treat his cousin a good dinner as a gesture of gratitude for taking us around Tokyo. We let him to decide the restaurant and we had yakiniku for that night. A wonderful, appetising experience of BBQ-ing expensive beef slices.

1 Krispy Kreme = 7 Maccas burgers

8 February 2008 at 11:45 am » Comments (0)

Today we celebrated the big boss of the company’s birthday. Instead of a traditional birthday cake, my colleague bought dozens of Krispy Kreme and stacked them together.
When the boss saw this, he told everyone in the room, “Do you know eating one of those doughnuts is like consuming seven of MacDonald burgers?”
I ate two three. Gulp.

(1 Krispy [...]



Kyoto (Day 3 to 7) : Kyoto International Manga Museum

(Snapped this scene when we were walking aimlessly)
This was a random stop. We decided take a long walk instead of catching a train to the centre of the city. As we walked along the streets, the keyword manga caught my attention when we passed by the Kyoto International Manga Museum. The museum is primarily meant for 5-9 year [...]



Election day!

Last Saturday, the gang went off for another BBQ session near the Yarra River (next to the Botanical Gardens). This time is to celebrate the end of the semester and the end of another grueling period of exams. I didn’t bring along my camera so no food pics.
(-___-)
And that very day, it happens to be [...]



Thai dins dins

We went to a Thai Restaurant for dinner last weekend. I’ve been hearing stories about this restaurant (unfortunately I forgot the name, again. My memory has been bad to me these days) from the good food it offers to the big portions. Originally we thought it was located at the end of Lygon Street but no, [...]



Spanish Night

4 June 2007 at 10:52 am » Comments (0)

Oliver, Ivan and the blogger went to try out the Spanish food that they have been talking about every now and then. That’s Robert Burns Hotel in Collingwood to you. It’s a typical pub dining place and you order at the counter (and pay) before you get your food.
Primarily dealing with seafood, we decided [...]



Fishy Nightmare

On Sunday, the whole gang reserved the evening for the Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End and then a nice Thai dinner at the end of Lygon Street. What we didn’t expected was a lengthy movie and we came out pretty late. Jon booked a table of eight at the Thai restaurant (Dunno the name, [...]



Bluefire Grill

Yesterday, me and my bosses went for dinner at Bluefire Grill. I’ve booked it a week earlier, worrying that it may be full but to my surprise, there was only 1 or 2 tables occupied when we arrived. This gave me 2 different impressions: either we were too early for dinner or the place sucks. I prayed [...]



Easter Break

Easter is-a-coming and I’m getting a four day break starting tommorow. To spend those days in a more meaningful way, I’m going to:

Organise another steamboat session with my apartment mates. Perfect meal for a cold weekend.

Watch the movie 300

Start playing the new game Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, the long awaited sequel.

Oh, the nice management of this business building gave [...]



Ze Barbaric Night

The second batch of dinner was at Limor’s International, a family restaurant where they serve you one of the seven sins: gluttony. This time it’s for the apartment gang (Sonia and George) and a couple of bums (Oliver and Chan).
Being a first timer to the place, I found out the restaurant was popular and customers usually came [...]



Another Greasy Joe Session

22 October 2006 at 6:25 pm » Comments (0)

On Saturday night, the gang went off to St Kilda for another round of Greasy Joe dinner. Oliver and I have been craving for bacons and eggs for sometime; every now and then during lunch time we went out and tried to look for a late breakkie, but usually they do not serve breakfast meals [...]
