We arrived back in Melbourne early Sunday morning. We headed home to have a look at the state of our renovations. This was a picture of what it looked like on Sunday. But since then, the walls are up and the fittings will be going in soon. We are really excited about this whole transformation. We have still been living like students ever since we finished school and it is time to move on and be all grown up now.
Pacific Seafood BBQ House is one of those Chinese restaurants that we go back from time to time. It is our usual haunt for crispy pork, BBQ pork and roast duck. The other place that does it really well is Linx (South Melbourne market). It has been awhile since we have eaten other dishes here so we decided to dine in.

The name, OldTown Kopitiam, derived from a small coffeeshop in Ipoh (Malaysia) called Old town. This is where white coffee originates as well. White coffee is roasted mixing modern technigues and old skool Malaysian practices. It ends up with a lighter colour and hence the name.The aromatic coffee beans are well known and theymade it on the shelves of supermarkets in Malaysia. They later opened a modern kopitiam (coffee shop) and the rest is history.
I am a big fan of Horoki. To me and many of my friends, Horiki never seem to fail us. Despite its name and a Japanese owner, this isn’t exactly the usual Japanese joint. Ingredients like olive oil, parmigiano reggiano, light soya sauce & cappers are used in some its dishes. This restaurant is a like a melting pot of cultural tastes. So very Melbourne. So very Australian.
