Dan’s House, Haymarket

by jeroxie April 29, 2012

Dan’s House is now officially opened. It is located on George Street in Haymarket. This modern Chinese restaurant is dressed in silver, gold and white bling on the first level and in darker tones and blues on the second level. The first level is more family oriented and I love the natural light that floods into the space. The second level is more catered to the evening crowd with a bar upstairs as well as a private room with a personal karaoke set!

Momofuku Seiobo

by jeroxie April 12, 2012

I do consider myself quite a lucky girl. Not many can say that they have eaten at 2 Momofuku joint. The first was the infamous Momofuku Ko in New York City when we were travelling last year. There was a few amazing dishes that still make me smile when I think of them. Any form of photography was not allowed at Momofuku Ko and so the blog post was just text. I really wish I could take the photos for remembrance but I guess it made me want to remember the taste more because I can’t take the photos. Hope I am making sense.

Eating in Surry Hills – Sushi Suma

by jeroxie April 8, 2012

More local eating. Sushi Sumo is recommended by a fellow colleague that lives around the area. It was recommended for a cheap night out and not to impress your date. Sushi Sumo is located on Cleveland Street. This street is dotted with a fair selection of Indian cuisine. I am not a big fan of Indian or Pakistani food but will most likely pick one or two to check out in the next few months. There is one Indian restaurant called Holy Cow! It seemed packed out whereas the rest are only half filled. I will need to chuck on the old research cap and not based on one observation on a Friday night.

Eating in Surry Hills – Missy K

by jeroxie March 25, 2012

When I was in Melbourne, there was a couple nice local restaurants that we can walk to for dinner. However, we usually had to drive between five to ten minutes either to Flemington or Footscray for more delicious goodness. Moving forward from Melbourne, we are both living in Surry Hills. In my opinion, it is [...]

Eating in Surry Hills – Bangbang Cafe and The Original California Burrito Company

by jeroxie March 20, 2012

There you go, my excuse for a wasted day and a bad hair day. To make up for the lost day, we had a rather heavy breakfast at Bangbang and then followed by a late afternoon snacking at the newly opened California Burrito on Crown Street.

Sydney Cheap Eats – Menya Mappen & Menya Oiden, Sydney CBD

by jeroxie January 19, 2012

Sydney has a larger Japanese community. There are so many little Japanese cafes, restaurants and chain ones like Menya. My first Menya encounter was Menya Noodle Bar in Haymarket that serves pretty awesome ramen. I prefer Gumshara but my colleagues are skewed towards Menya. I will go back and have another shot and write about it again.

Yum Cha at Marigold, Sydney CBD

by jeroxie December 27, 2011

It’s our first boxing day in Sydney and the first time in years that we woke up feeling chirpy. There was no hangover from binge drinking as we would have in Melbourne. Our Christmas had been quiet without our good ‘orphan’ friends to hang out with. We started the day with a nice exploration ride around the neighbourhood and around Botanical gardens. The weather was cool and the sight of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge felt strangely serene.

Daylesford Day One – Wombat Hill House, Peppers Spring Retreat and Kazuki’s

by jeroxie October 18, 2011

Daylesford is one of the first few places that Mister and I visit when we first got together many moons ago. It is also one of the places that we head back for a visit once every couple of years. We are definitely no strangers to its natural beauty. Daylesford and Hepburn Springs area is also known to the Spa country. It has the most number of mineral springs and spas in Australian and the produce and food in this area is equally fabulous.

Rumi, Brunswick East

by jeroxie September 1, 2011

Mister and I hardly stay apart from each other for long periods of time. He means the world to me and I know that he feels the same about me. It has been hard having him gone for long periods of time now. And especially when I do need him the most at the moment, it is even harder. It is good that @mamajeroxie is here with me at the moment. However, it means that I lack a lot of time alone to make decisions and think about my next steps.

Malaysia Kitchen Blogger Summit – Chef Lagenda and Laksa King

by jeroxie August 27, 2011

In week 1, I introduced you to Chillipadi Mamak Kopitiam. It was a blend of Chinese, Malay and Indian flavours all under one roof. In this final week, I will like to aquaint you two Malaysian Chinese restaurants in my hood – Chef Lagenda and Laksa King. I am pretty rap to have all three so close to home. It makes mid week dinner almost brainless.

Malaysia Kitchen Blogger Summit – Lim’s Nyonya Hut

by jeroxie August 21, 2011

In the third week of the Malaysia Kitchen Blogger Summit, I will like to introduce a cuisine much closer to my heart – The Peranakan, the Straits Chinese or also known as Nyonya or Nonya. There are 3 countries in the world where most Peranakan lives – Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia. The Peranakan is a marriage of Chinese settlers to local Malays. The Peranakan itself is vaguely divided into two main groups. The ones in the East coast (Kelantan and Terengganu) which are more Malay influenced and the ones in the West coast like Malacca which are more Chinese influence. The communities in both Penang and Singapore were established later. There is so much history behind this very special, vibrant and fusion culture and I am so proud to be part of it.

Malaysia Kitchen Blogger Summit – Laksa Me and a bowl of laksa

by jeroxie August 14, 2011

My first encounter with Mr Allen Woo, owner and chef of Laksa Me, was at the recent Good Food and Wine Show in Melbourne. Malaysian Kitchen had a pretty big booth at the show and Mr Allen was one of the ambassador for Malaysia Kitchen and presenter at one of the sessions. I walked in on his presentation about Laksa and loved it. It had a lot of energy and I thought he held a wealth of knowledge and passion about Malaysian cuisine, the ingredients and her history.
