Freshmade Japanese Cafe Perth

Boxing Day shopping. Most restaurants closed. Found this gem of a Japanese diner.











The menu above.
We had fried chicken spicy Karaage served with rice below.













Tempura curry udon unspicy thick scrumptious noodles.


Tonkatsu ramen was chewy with soya sauce.


Green crispy fried gyoza.














Black rice chicken rolls.

Wow so healthy & nutrient packed. Self service. Unlimited water and hard seats. Takeaway may be better on a crowded day. Filled the shopping belly for more buys on Boxing Day.

Two Fat Indians Cottesloe

Weeknight dinner with two south Asian friends.

We had cheesy mushrooms a specialty of the house. I got 2 succulent mushrooms smothered in cheese and spices. The flavors entombed the mouth in a spicy mushy mix out of South Asia. Delicious. We also had the lamb chops. Butter naan, rice, Goan fish curry, and madras chicken curry. All in extra large servings. Service was good and price reasonable. Worth visiting again.

Simply delicious and succulent lamb chops.

The fish curry

The location of the two restaurants. We were at the Cottesloe branch. The decor was plain with some Indian ornaments. Many clients took away food. Ok for a family or informal meal or a beer night out. 

 

Ho Hung Kee Hong Kong Airport

Fast swei kow or water play dumplings with noodles and porridge. Hot soya bean milk in bowls. Hot fast chinese food Cantonese style at the airport. Crunchy chew on the dumplings with firm el dente egg noodles. No room for the on board cathay pacific meal. Or the tit bits in the Wing lounge upstairs.

Candlenut Modern Singaporean Peranakan

The decor was rustic with straw lamp shades. Fast service. 

We had starters with satay, stewed vegetables that you scooped into fried pastry cups and prawn crackers. 

Then mains with steaming hot rice, beef rendang coconut strength, vegetables in mild spicy sauce and coconut water from the shell. 

Good service with older waiting staff. KK had the chendol or green jelly with coconut. The flavors smacked of Singapore in the 21st century. 

The charm of old Melaka in the food was cloaked by the modern fog.

Samy's Curry Singapore

We were promised a stomping hot curry in a tropical island setting. AJ & I were picked up from T3 Changi in Mercedes GL250 4wd. Our friend H drove us to Dempsey in german stealth metal coach. The contrast on stepping into the control chaos of Samy's curry was monsoonal. Heaps of crowded tables laden with banana leaf plates heaped with rice & curry. We had chicken masala with white rice. Fish patties and lovely fish curry sauce. Washed down with Samy's lime juice. AJ from India had extra. A taste different from India's. The papadums were wafers of South Asia in concentrate. We saw lawyers in black & white enjoying the fish head. Maybe another time as we were discussing astrological economics with H. So couldn't let our senses be clouded by spice and chilly.

Fat Noodle Brisbane Treasury Casino

Gamblin the luck & feelin hunger in the soul. Recharge the sugar to the brain's roulete cells. Try the Fat noodle chinese fast menu.

 Speed food delivered by black clad waiters and waitresses. We had rice dishes and the rapid peking duck. The stir fry beef and veges were hot and saucy with the rice. Then back to the furnace of the gamin tables. Prices were reasonable for the Casino venue. $20 for the Peking duck. And rice dishes around there too.

Sik Heung Yuen Kowloon

This restaurant is directly opposite the Novotel Hotel on Jordan road. 

Just walk across the road of the hotel entrance on Saigon St. (The hotel provides a full buffet including hot breakfast.) We had to meet a friend for breakfast and decided to have a more tradtional breakfast in this restaurant and not the hotel. They have noodle and breakfast set menus for HKD30 to 40. Eggs wih toast, milk tea and noodles with ham and sausage. Very economical and clean with good fast service. Opens at 7am. Good place to meet friends for a snack or coffee as opposite the Novotel and close to the underground train.
