FOOD....FOod.....and food

Alright,

Done with Loo with a View, now lets move on to Pie in the Sky!! Let's touch on what I ate in Melbourne. This is not all, this is just what I remember to take pictures of. You know me, when I see food, besides chopstick in hand, nothing really come before.

So we started Br-unch at 10.30am. Melbourne apparently had the best DimSum (we call it yumcha here) before 2002 because all the sifu from Hong Kong escaped when Hong Kong was returned to mainland China. But after all was calm and settled, they eventually returned.

So here are some dishes. Some months ago, I was emphasizing on the amazingly huge dimsum they had, and they still have it that large! Reason is simple. One, the guai lou are huge eaters. Two, they need to justify $4.50 a plate. So it has to be huge! 2 prawns in harkaw, double portion if meat in siewmai.

Siewmai

Shark Fin mai

It was written 鳯爪, which is interpreted as Phoenix Claw

Dandenong's Pie in the Sky

Dandenong is something like out Semenyih where it is up on a hill filled with rain forest. The famous attraction is perhaps Puffing Billy on Mt. Dandenong. Here, we went for pie.

'Split the Bill' Novotel, Glen Waverly

This restaurant has a very good bargain for high class food at a low class price. For $25, you get an appetizer, main course and dessert.

Pumpkin Soup

Seafood salad

Salmon

Lamb Shank

Amazing, Finger Lickin Good.

(Thought in the Blog: Did you know in Australia, car registration number can be customized? All you need to do is to pay a small fee when you purchase the car. This is what my uncle named his Mercedes...)



No police officer will understand what on earth is that!!
