Francesca & Giovanni cookies

Thanks to a friend for these lovely Chocolate and almond cookies.

There were so many cookies in a bag.

The texture of each cookie was delicate and crumbles in your mouth with a rich cocoa taste and lots of almond bits in it.

iBakery Express' green tea cookies

These green tea cookies are quite interesting because they are made by ibakery using the Hyatt regency Kyoto recipe according to the box.

Grassroots Pantry's Bahn mi wrap

Went to the Tong Chong Street market and tried the Bahn mi wrap by Grassroots Pantry.


The wrap was really good because it looked like a savoury crepe filled with delicious spices, tofu and some greens.

Foxtail Broomcorn debuts in WanChai

Previously tried this noodle joint in Sheung Wan and now they have expanded with a bigger and spacious branch on Landale Street.
The menu is better because it has English and Chinese with pictures compiled into a booklet.
I had some new items with noodles.

Hoi An: Salmon with shirataki noodles


This was my favourite because the salmon was soft and delicate, the noodles beneath it were mixed with a garlicky vinegar dressing that tastes like the sauce used in Thai style chicken feet.

Lu Rou Fan:

This was basically Taiwanese inspired sauce with minced pork and rice.
A great option for people who want rice.

Grilled zucchini with prawn roe:

The zucchini was sweet and crisp flavoured by the fragrant prawn roe.

Cheap vegetarian fix at Bombay Aloo in Brighton

Discovered this restaurant because I was at The Lanes in Brighton.

Tried this place because I love curries and it was only £4.95 and you can eat as much as you like.

The selection was a bit weak but fair for that price, however the curries were a bit too watery for my liking.

The vain cat at Sinmei Tea

Went here to celebrate a friend's birthday a while ago.
Mithu the lovely cat was there but he was really vain that day and kept staring at his reflection.


Anyway, we had the dessert cup and the green tea matcha cake.
The dessert cup is colourful with a contrast of red and green.

It was my first time trying the matcha angel cake and it was divine!!
The green tea frosting on top is silky smooth and light while the cake is sooooo delicious and dreamy.

Drink pink for a cause at Nood Food

Came here again for a drink.
This time got the new pink drink and $20 gets donated to a local charity.




The drink was quite slushy and cold with a strong banana taste with hints of beetroot and other fruits and veggies.
