Lunch Buffet@ Grand Haytt Erawan Hotel (Bangkok)

This is properly the fifth or sixth time I am visiting Bangkok Thailand and each time is been a mind opening experience. Thailand is known by their culinary specialty and eatery culture, of course, superb services.
Aunty invited us to a brunch with her at 5-star Grand Hyatt Erawan hotel.
If you have been to Bangkok, you would know it's a very busy and crowed tropical (hot) city. As soon as we step into the hotel the cold breeze and classic piano playing at the background embraced us. Suddenly, the heavenly like calmness lay on us, we're relaxed. The hallway is very spacious and covered by European interior designs.

Top 10 Sydney Eatery for Travelers

Recently we had some family visits, there has been heated discussion as where should we bring them to......well, here is the our list you might want to take a look for inspiration.
Most of below restaurants are in downtown Sydney, shouldn't be a problem to book or just walk in.





Red Chili Chatswood 水井坊

Red Chili is my favorite SiChuan food in Sydney, let me emphasis this first - the Chatswood store is the best of the best.
Why? because they use the most tasty Sichuan peppercorn.

Fried Chicken with Basil Chinese Style 三杯鸡

It's been really cold lately. I am not in a mood of washing veggies nor cleaning dishes afterward. This is a very easy recipe and very tasty.

Feel like having some sake tonight with friends in a bar and enjoy Japanese cuisine.
Tokonoma could be one of the best choice for you.
Toko Restaurant & Bar are located Surry Hills and Paddington.
I went to their Bar Tokonoma for degustation which is just right next door to Toko restaurant.

Spicy Sichuan food in Sydney City 蜀香坊


Last weekend my friends and I felt some flavorsome Chinese food. Sichuan food is definitely one of the best choice of the night.

Spicy Sichuan restaurant started at the heart of Glebe quite few years back and now expanded to inner city on Cunningham Street (a very hidden small lane, opposite world square near Quest hotel).
We went to the Cunningham street despite the difficulty of finding a parking. Level one of the restaurant is Sichuan hotpot, level two is A la Carte.

The place is quite popular, don't forget to book before you plan your Friday or Saturday out with your friends. (number is at the end of this blog)

First stop:  Chinese Cold noodle with chilli sauce
A must order dish when you go to Sichuan restaurant (at least that's for me).  One of the famous and most commonly selling at street stands of Sichuan cities, especially great in summer. Despite the spiciness, still one of their favorite side dish.


My Bad Experience in Chatime Wynyard

If you orderred a drink from any shop, wouldn't you expecting that drink is what they discribed?
Not today I am afraid!
When I received my order, looks like a cloudy green tea. To be clear here, I've had this drink many times. I DO know what it should look like. (I will purchase where else and make a comparison later).
As you can see I ordered Kumquat GreenTea, this one is Kumquat juice (has the worst flavour you can imagine)

Bruschetteria 102


Wondering where to pick up a nice breakfast in Surry Hills?
Check this out!
Bruschetteria 102 came cross as a catchy name for us, so the decision is made to pay a visit.

This Italian small restaurant is on quite side of Albion street. As soon as we just started worrying if we have got ourselves lost, we saw a small crowed of people gathered in front of a building....ahuh! That's the one!
