Burwood Korea House, Burwood

The owner of Ceci is a remarkable woman, she’s seemingly always behind the counter of Ceci, with her hair artfully curled and make up touched up to a tee. She’s become my constant for Strathfield Korean restaurants and it’s actually a bit of a shock to see her seated here in Burwood Korea House.

So for the past few months, I have been hard at work eating my heart out. Luckily I don’t own scales so I cannot say whether my body size has been affected by this, but I’m pretty sure it has. That’s one thing to watch out in NYC… the heaviness of the food!

Malaysia Mondays – Penang, Part 1

I’ve been looking forward to Penang, knowing that it’s closer to the ocean I’ve foolishly assumed that the weather will be cooler. I’ve never been more wrong in my life. The humidity is almost punishingly heavy and I’m sweating within seconds of leaving the car, my hand-held fan my only salvation.

Hola EST friends from New York City! 3 months ago, I jumped ship and hopped over to the land of hot dogs, bagels and fast food. Here is part #1 of Teresa’s NYC eats.

Missing out on a veritable feast of all-you-can-eat ribs and whatnot at Cafe Ish made me terribly sad and somehow during my bemoaning of such misfortune, I ended up at an all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant in the CBD with Ffichiban and Ninja.

As we turned up without a reservation on a supremely busy Sunday morning, the next available timeslot for us was about an hour. We were about to decline the booking when an awesome looking dish went by and we simultaneously asked the waiter to book it in for us.

There’s something so childishly appealing about green food. All my life I’ve been drawn to the green stuff, be it food colouring or natural vegetables I’ll eat it all. That said, it’s not really surprising that Green Tea is my favourite drink and flavour, so when I kept seeing recipes for Matcha Sables (or Diamants) I decided to roll up my sleeves and give them a go.

It’s a week of farewells as we’re waving off our Teresa before she heads off to the Big Apple, in true es&t style we take it in our stride and use it as an excuse to eat, drink and of course be merry! The first stop on our itinerary is Tomislav. We’re drawn here by the reputation of Tomislav Martinovic and by rumour of his Heston Blumenthal inspired cookery.

Megalong Tea Rooms, Blue Mountains

After a long day walking it was a relief to be able to kick back with some good food, good views and a good coffee. The food at Megalong tea room is honest and home made style rather than modern cafe style which you expect back in Sydney. As a result, it’s a great throwback to what country style food could be like. If I’m in the area, I’ll definitely come back as this sort of comfort food is exactly what you need after a long walk in the bush.

Georges Mediterranean Bar and Grill, Sydney

Georges is one of those restaurants who’s menu online has what their physical menu actually offer. So I was pleased that what I had planned could be carried out. I was thinking of sharing 2-3 mezedes plates (kind of like small plates), then a main and naturally a dessert, but somehow after discussing with Gary what he was going to order, we ended up ordering 7 mezedes… and no main for either of us.

Picchu, Sapporo

It’s funny how three out of my top five meals in this recent Japan trap were from non-Japanese restaurants. Picchu is certainly one of them, the fact that I traveled halfway around the world to Sapporo and spend a good ten minutes trying to find the place with the taxi driver and still walk out very happy with my meal is a testament to the food and the restaurant

I’ve been to Japan three times and I always seem to find something new to enjoy each time. The first time was in 2004, when we didn’t eat sushi or sashimi at all. I then went again in February 2009 for the Socceroos vs Japan match and I ate raw chicken and cod sperm. During [...]
