Lo Zucchero , Dalkeith

Helloww everybody On this lovely free Saturday Let me have the honor to blog about Lo Zucchero because I wan't to introduce you to our special univited guest of the nite... Introducing....
Mr.Frankenstein
We'll talk further about him but now let's talk through the restaurant ... it's in Dalkieth and along the way we were mesmerized by the area and houses at that suburb... wishing one day we can live there too... there's a house that looks like a cottage and mimics the white house and other semi mansions(correct me if im wrong)... the houses just looks so grand and out of reach *rich People*

So the Cafe and Restaurant along the area also looks very nice. Lo Zucchero is a cafe/restaurant/hangout place/woodfire pizza place that has very inviting and relaxing atmosphere... the staff are very friendly, caring and they pay attention to the customers. It is a cafe coz u can see their range of coffees and teas that looks very temping, looks like they're quality stuff they also sell em raw or in take home packaged one if you like. And it has range of cakes and biscuits to go with em. It's a restaurant offering italian food that taste clean and fresh, also authentic... By autehentic i mean it's unique and one of a kind for example the duck rissoto and squid ink liguini.

And they offer, again very tempting range of wood fire pizza made before you eyes and they are quite uniqe as well we tried the soy sesame honey chicken one and don't mind going for a second for the brie,avocado etc one (Confession, they are 2 of my fave things in the world!!! hence can only remember them 2 ingredients only, haha). They are very light, fresh and just delicious...!
Soo Now Let me talk through the food with the pics
Our Entree, Soy Honey Sesame Chicken Wood Fire Pizza. The Base is very Thin. Chicken tender and moist. Nice smoky gourmet pizza...

Entree No.2 Calamari. It's very tender, the crumb is crisp and clean, it's not oily, served with lemon mayonnaise with Rocket bed.
Duck Rissoto... that get everyone so excited. Miss FDQ and stewie is rissoto fans... CC is duck fanatics... so little wonder we order this! It's Stewie's best food of the nite.. it's not rich, it taste light and fresh (stewie thinks there's basil there which she loves). There's also shitake mushroom in there... The rice is just the perfect consistency, overall it's a champion.
Squid Ink Liquini with spinach, fish and cherry tomato with lemony and garlicy oil dressing. It's probably the least impressive dish of the day according to most of us nevertheless still okayy. A bit Bland, Just nice after we add a bit of salt and pepper.


Around about this time is when Frankenstein come to our table and wondering why in the hell are we taking picture of the food. He is --- Im not sure chef there or just a staff... but he keeps coming back to the table asking why are we taking picture, what are we doing with the picture, Are we gonna put it in internet, and do we like italian food.. and If we're Italian
*Err... 4 Asian Chicks helooww* lols

And He ask what happened to Stewie's foot then he share us some history of his own. His Son broke his leg and he has to take care of him for 8 months... He doesnt sounds too impressed by the whole incident, not impress at all. He say, "I have to take care of him for 8months!8months!! "THen He murmurs to himself "HE better take care of me when I'm old" Which he is already...

*Hope Mr.Frankestein never read this blog or if you think u'r Mr. Frankenstein my apologie...We're just kidding around =P*

By now you're probably wondering why is he Mr. Frankestain at the 1st place- easy- he looks like one.

*Sorry again Mister..if you happen to be as unfortunate as to have read our blog*

*If you think You're Mr Frankestein'son, here's a message 4 u ,TAKE CARE OF UR DAD! lols*


Menu
Hot Mocha and Bacio cake that we all share
Range of Biscuits and cakes
Range of G-e-l-a-t-o
That's the chef making pizza at the back
Overall... It is a VERY NICE LITTLE DINING PLACE --- I PERSONALLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT

AND SPECIAL CONGRATULATION TO FDQ AND MISS PETITE WHO JUST DID THEIR HONOURS PRESENTATION!!!ANOTHER MILESTONE HAS PASSED
- WELL DONE GUYSS!!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU GUYS DESERVE A BIG CLAP AND A WAVE DANCE AS WELL

*CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP*

Sayers - Leederville

The TBS members had breakfast at Sayers today, which is located on 224 Carr Pl, Leederville. I'm not sure if one is called an early riser for waking up so early on a Saturday morning and drove all the way to Leederville for breakfast. But I'm glad we did, cos by the time we finished our meals, the place was packed and there was a queue outside. The place itself is small, but they sort of turned the alley next to the building into a dining area as well, which was where our table was. I actually liked our table, and there was a family sitting next to ours: husband and wife with their ohhhh soooo adorable son, James. Not that we talked to them, we just spied on them, we are busy body, enough said. Chow-Chow particularly likes this kind of spying and eavesdropping thing, probably to satisfy her curiosity.

For drinks, both Chow-Chow and Miss FDQ ordered mocha, the difference being Miss FDQ had her mocha skinny while Chow-Chow had hers "fat" (if there is such a thing). But hmmm...that doesnt actually explain their physique, if you're wondering..errr...kinda..

Stewie & I ordered french hot chocolate, which I forgot to add "soy" on Stewie's when I was ordering..I should have known better, considering she's a soy freak.

For the meals, each of us ordered a different dish. Stewie wanted the same thing as Chow-Chow, but we managed to convince her to try something else so we can have more photos on our blog.

Miss FDQ had the wagyu beef sausage with baked egg, oven roasted tomato, spring onion & cheddar open omellete, and lemon scented rocket

Chow-Chow ordered the Bubble and squeek cake with fried eggs, bacon, rosemary scented tomato, and sourdough toast

Stewie had the Cumin cod cake with poached egg, rosemary scented tomato, toasted ciabatta, wilted spinach, and hollandaise

I had the potato rosti with poached eggs, bacon, onion jam, and lemon scented wilted spinach.

Overall, we all loved our food, portion was of the right size, presentation was fancy, taste even fancier, not a single flaw in our opinion. Wouldnt mind coming back again :)



I always forget the name and the price of each food that we order, so I took the photo of the menu :)



Ambience was nice and rather comfy, tho it was quite windy today :)




French hot chocolate. It was really cute because you were supposed to pour the chocolate chips into the milk. I wonder if that's how they do it in France??




Miss FDG's Wagyu beef sausage. According to Miss FDQ, the baked egg was very filling, but lovely nonetheless.



The potato rosti was awesome, although I reckoned the bottom was a bit burnt.



Stewie's cumin cod cake, which she thought was a bit fishy, but the crumb was superb and Stewie eats anything, so she can't really complain.



Chow-Chow's bubble and squeek cake.

Jacs - Apple Cross

What best to end our meals other than to have, desserrttt....!! but Vu's doesnt have any appealing dessert... so we were planning to go to Guchee as chowchow suggested, unfortunately we'r late and the place was closing so randomly we went to Jacs.

Miss FDQ was there once to have breakfast which in her opionion nothing special but the dessert are nice!
We were quite lucky coz by the looks of it they were closing (9 past, the time we arrived)we were literally the last customer of the day (you know that annoying bunch of people who never leaves when the shop suppose to be closed)

 we only order 2 dessert which take forever to make
Miss Petite (In distress): "Omg!! When is our food gonna come.."
Chow chow (gourmet guru): "It's shouffle dudee... !!do you know how long it take to make shouffle!?"
Miss Petite(Being a B****h): "I don't care! Im a customer."
Miss Stewie and Miss FDQ: "Let's watch this, popcorn??"

Anyhoo, the passionfruit shouffle is nice, it looks amazing... taste.... with cream *bold italic underline that* is quite nice otherwise it's just sour and fluffy with consistency of beaten egg white (foam).

The Chocolate caramel is a beauty!! Unbeatable classic of warm moist chocolate cake with Gooey caramel and chocolate sauce centre than oozes out from the inside, served with vanila ice cream... absolute comfort food.. nothing like classic dessert... everyone loves it. Nuff said.

(plus for not a sweet fan like myself, it's quite light and not so rich. Even the chocolate sauce... which means not sickening and must mean it is a not-so-guilty-pleasure *We'd like to think anyway*=D)

Jacs - dim room feels romantic and cozy- chowchow want a house like this *hint hint*
Chocolate caramel something something
Gooey caramel and chocolate sauce centre - heaveennnnn .......
Look at that soft fluffy cloud-like shouffle, divine....

Toast @ East Perth

ello people!!!! Chow chow is blogging 2day so pls bear with my singlish :) so after a VERY early morning call (barging into my room) from miss Petite on a Saturday we headed down to East perth ( miss petite driving as usual) to try out Toast for brekkie. Upon arrival the place was packed n it was only 8.30am aren't ang mohs supposed to be still in bed ar??? anw we finally got a table n miss Petite went for her ordering duties: Poached eggs and ham on english muffins with Hollandaise sauce AND Corn fritters with bacon and maple syrup for me. And for drinks Miss Petite got hot choc n i got freshly squeezed OJ.
                                                                  Self service loh....
OJ n Hot choc

                         

 The poached eggs was done perfectly look at the gooey yolk yummmm..... but Miss Petite commented that the yolk was a bit fishy and being the eggspert i agreed......
The bacon was awsome fried just nicely not too crisp/ gosong/ chao ta and the corn was sweet n juicy. The maple syrup really goes well with the saltiness of the bacon and the potion size was just right.... Overall a very satisfying brekkie.... 
2 thumbs up!!!!
               Look at the beautiful view and some one have to spoil it with......
           this: miss Petite being the NARCIST demanded that i take a photo of her
          So after brekkie we drove to the city to get matching bracelets from Pandora. The butterfly can actually be joined together it's a new design from Pandora and when u split it u get this
                                                                Friends Forever
Miss FDQ: U see what i mean or not???

Zanders - Cable beach, BROOME

We were awfully shattered cos our kayaking trip got cancelled. The stupid wind was too strong for us to go kayaking. Instead, we ended up having lunch at Zanders at Cable beach. The place was perfect and eventho we didnt get to kayak, but we did have an enjoyable lunch. Chow-Chow had a 5 spice duck with fried rice which according to Miss Petite was really yummy. Miss Petite and Miss F had linguine with chicken, while Stewie had mushrooms risotto with spinach and diced tomatoes. Dining is never complete without desserts, so we ordered a chocolate pecan pie and oreo cheesecake. Chow-Chow adored the pie....We've uploaded the view around Zanders too..just to rub salt to Miss FDQ's wounds.





ZOO cafe - BROOME


After sunset camel ride with our sore backs and aching bumps, we were starving and decided to have dinner at Zoo cafe, which is nearby the cable beach. To our dismay, the place was packed, all tables were full, so we were put on the waiting list. So we went back to our hotel and took a shower. Had our dinner just after 8 and by that time our tummies were growling. But, we did enjoy our food and the atmosphere was nice too.







KOOL SPOT cafe & food in BROOME

Miss Petite woke everyone up at 5 cos she needed to head down to Coles chinatown to inspect her samples. We then decided to grab breakfast and ended up in Kool Spot cafe & food. Miss Petite & Chow-Chow ordered english breakfast tea - their favourite - as usual. Stewie ordered soy hot chocolate. Anyway, we can't remember exactly the name of the dishes, but enjoy the food nevertheless.
