Another Green Tea Latte

In the search for more Green Tea Latte, I discovered another shop in the Sydney CBD serving this beverage. With a slight bitter taste and green tea powder sprinkled on top, this one was particularly delicious.

COSPLAY – Catwoman – Noelle Dreves

After asking why she was known as the Brisbane Catwoman, previous featured artist Noelle Dreves provided this site with the below picture. It’s a very impressive costume with homage to Michelle Pfeiffer‘s look in Batman Returns. Be careful sharing the bench with this cat! For another cosplay photo of Noelle as Juno Eclipse from Force […]

Sundried Pesto Spaghetti

A nice easy dish if you are running a little short of time. Cook the spaghetti (as per packet instructions), drain well and return to pot. Add in a splash of olive oil, jar of sundried tomato pesto, canned tuna, chilli flakes (to taste) and sundried tomatoes. Season well with salt and pepper. Serve hot.

Soya Bean

There’s nothing quite like a hot bowl of soya bean to complete any chinese feast. This particular bowl was very smooth in texture (if it’s too thick, it’s not quite as refreshing) with ginkgo nuts adding to the taste. Mmmmm . . . .

Char Kway Teow

The first question you’re thinking probably is “What is Char Kway Teow?“. It is a Malaysian dish of fried flat rice noodles. There are many variations of ingredients that can be added. However, cockles, eggs, prawns, bean sprouts, chives and chilli are usually added whilst frying. Originally a fisherman’s dish to finish any unsold cockles […]

Ice-Cream Tiramisu

My first attempt at making ice-cream tiramisu. One layer of sponge fingers soaked in Kahlua, marsala (italian wine) and coffee followed by a layer of high quality vanilla ice-cream with a dusting of grated chocolate. This was then repeated twice. It may not look particularly “pretty” in the photo but it was definitely delicious!

Sushi – Photo

During a visit to one of my favorite sushi shops in the north shore of Sydney, I took a couple of photos to share. With an amazing range of very fresh dishes, especially tasty is the seaweed salad sushi ship. Their specialty are some amazing hand rolls. Pictured below is the vegetable tempura hand roll […]

Latte – North Shore

A delicious latte from Chatswood (North of Sydney CBD). I prefer the lighting of this picture to the previous latte picture I posted up. The black table gives a much better contrast.

American Samoa

American Samoa is one of the smaller Pacific Islands with a population of approx. 68,000. Although adopting a lot of American culture, it wasn’t particularly touristy or developed which is perfect for those seeking a peaceful adventure. With the main source of income derived from exporting tuna, it also boasts the freshest sashimi. A single […]

Affogato

It’s not a Green Tea Latte. An affogato is a shot of espresso topped with ice-cream or gelato. The one featured here is with Rum & Raisin ice-cream from a little gelato shop just north of Sydney CBD. The gelato will melt ever so slightly over hot coffee. I think one of the best gelato […]
