Lunch Log: Week 76 Day 3

You too can emulate Yo Sushi’s rice paste: cook the rice used for blind baking! Actually, the rest of it probably suits rice porridge and these are the most square 4 seas rolls I’ve made. Lunch is mustard croquettes, tomato, spinach namul, soy egg, slow cooked pork belly with fennel, takuan and crabstick 4 seas […]

Lunch Log: Week 76 Day 2

Almost forgot there was potato about the house. And what more evil way to make it tasty than deep frying it: spring onion & mustard croquettes with spinach gomae-ae, soy egg, tomato, steamed prawns and takuan.

Lunch Log: Week 71-75 (June 2014)

The weather for June has been noticeably warm, which is not a complaint given that modern technology is on your side for climate control! Despite the month being interrupted by beery shenanigans and daft charaben oddness I’m pretty chuffed with the log not being neglected. Week 71 Week 72 Week 73 Week 74 * For […]

Lunch Log: Week 76 Day 1

I realized that curry last night was quite eggplant heavy but apart from these cute pea ones I’d eaten the rest. Lunch is leftover Chinese style duck, red curry pea eggplant, steamed broccoli & broad beans, tomatoes, takuan and 3 onigiri (green shiso, brinjal ajvar and kimchee)

Happy Cat, Grumpy Cat

Whoa, it might take a while to play catch-up with old entries – a sign that RL demands your time but rewards you with money while a personal blog also requires time but may reward you with abuse/endless silence of the great depths of the universe (and needs money to host). Anyhoo, ignoring the still-draft […]

Lunch Log: Week 66-70 (May 2014)

Bit the bullet and gave chicken lollipops a go – it might just be the chickens around here but I didn’t expect them to turn out relatively large. And tedious. And delightfully tasty. And popular at home. And addictive. And, so rightly unhealthy so it looks like I shouldn’t cook them too often. … 🙁 […]

Lunch Log: Week 62-66 (April 2014)

Recently we finally gave a “bibimbap house” a try in Cambridge; it was decent but terribly overpriced. So in typical fashion, I attempted to try it for dinner and thus another household favourite is born. Perhaps I should just make it for lunch with different topping variations rather than fuss around with anything else.. (except […]

Lunch Log: Week 59-62 (March 2014)

A recent discovery that we have access to an authentic tasting (if you consider restaurants in Sydney) green chilli paste means that there would be more lunches involving it – if we can resist wolfing it all down for dinner that is! The ramen eggs were absolutely perfect, though I may be alone in liking […]

Lunch Log: Week 55-58 (February 2014)

After a week of haggis, it was quite a relief to have food that didn’t contain any for a change. Instead, after a visit to a local Chinese restaurant my interests briefly went towards turnip cake.. Week 55 Week 56 Week 57 Week 58

Lunch Log: Week 50-54 (January 2014)

A shiny new year and after more than 4 years a shiny new bento bako (box)! I probably should write about it, but it’s testament that you get what you pay for as the old box has been gathering a few hairline cracks on its lid for some time. Week 50 Week 51 Week 52 […]
