Winter is definitely in town. The last few days have been really cold from the rain and the strong gusty winds.
I love snuggling under the donna with the heater on. I feel very fortunate. These are simple pleasures in life but not everyone in Melbourne is as fortunate. To have a proper donna and heater is luxury to many of the homeless people. Have you wondered where do they sleep on cold winter nights that we are currently experiencing? Do they have hot soups to warm their bellies? Who do they turn to when they need to hug to make these cold nights a little more bearable?
I never thought highly of any restaurants in Federation Square except for Taxi dining. They are all a little more pricey, catered for the tourists and food is usually underwhelming. That is my personal opinion of course. But since Mister wanted to try the yumcha at Bokchoy Tang, I did not resist. It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon and we deserve to relax and have lunch in a nice place.
I made a really silly mistake on the way to dinner on Friday. And it costed us a 12hr slow roast lamb. Mister and I both arrived on time for dinner. The place looked particular empty for a Friday night and especially if there was a Family Roast Dinner promotion for the month. We ordered our drinks and looked around the room. No one was having roast? The waitress was also dumbfounded that we mentioned that we pre-ordered our lamb roast. There was no promotion and nor roast!
This is very simple and honest dish made by Mister. We make this dish with a variation of noodles quite often for the week. It is a no brainer but one of my favourites. I may be a food blogger but certainly not very fussy with foods. If we had the time, we will cook more extravagant meals but having to work long hours, simple foods like this is just as comforting.
