A Blog about Food
Carter & G’s is another rustic style themed cafe located in St Johns Park.
I don’t remember much about the meals since this was taken a year ago, but as you can see this particular dish was not well executed.
The big breakfast looked a little better.
Kids Mac.
Even though Carter and G’s doesn’t quite meet up to the quality standard that is being produced these days, it is still a welcome change to have modern styles of cuisines hit the western suburbs.
Found this in the supermarket today. Costs about $2.50AUD and contains two packets in it.
Basically you empty the contents of the satchet into a bowl, pour some hot water, wait, then fluff it up. Pretty easy. Pretty average tasting. But good if you are after a cheap and easy meal at work.
Following up from the previous post. Here is our breakfast the next day.
We were in Ikebukuro on a cold night so we decided to have something hot to eat. Our choice was a Japanese Charcoal BBQ restaurant. Also very easy to order. Just point to the pictures, and you cook the meat yourself on the charcoal grill on your table.
I can’t remember exactly what we had but what I remember is: intestine, heart, liver, corn, pork sausages, pork ribs, thinly sliced beef, bacon etc. I grew up eating the ‘regular’ pieces of meat as well as the other stuff, so the notion of eating something like chicken liver is not off putting to me. It’s such a waste to just eat particular parts of an animal and not eat the rest, because they tend to be the more tender, and less bland cuts of meat.
We finished the meal with some berry ice cream and a sundae in waffle cone.
Deep fried pork cutlet is one of those modern classics. Really simple, but very delicious.
As shown above. Typically it is served with rice, a side of cabbage, and some Miso soup. I would recommend having it (the pork cutlet) with “Sosu” sauce. It will be in a brown pot that looks like a tea pot (Don’t get it confused like I did, and pour it into your tea cup…)
I was at Disneyland, Tokyo and could not resist but try this. Sounds strange. Tastes pretty good.
Hello World!
Welcome to my very first blog post of the year. I am new to this, so please bare with me in the meantime as I become accustomed to the world of blogging. I promise to deliver new, unique, and interesting content on regular basis – so please come back frequently for updates!
It is known by many beer lovers that Asahi – along with Sapporo are amongst two of the largest breweries and beer manufacturers in Japan. But what about the other stuff?
Today I introduce to you – Red Bean Drink by Asahi.
I bought this from a vending machine in Tokyo, Japan. By the way, it is a HOT drink.Who would’ve thought? A hot drink from a vending machine. But it makes a lot of sense when you are freezing your tookus off.
In terms of taste, I would say it is pretty close to the real thing. Much more red bean than I expected. Although it is closer in texture and thinner like the Chinese version rather than the Japanese Oshiruko version.
