Located on London Circuit, in the middle courtyard area opposite Two Before Ten, is new Sichuan restaurant Bashan. We stopped in for a quick lunch on what was one of the windiest days. There are limited cramped tables inside (and absolutely no room to fit a pram) so we had no choice but to sit […] Read more…
My friends first informed me of the now hugely popular Ramen O in Belconnen. The catch is that Ramen O is only open Monday to Friday for lunch and dinner, and only for a couple of hours before it sells out. I remember their first Friday night of trade, multiple friends tried to get in […] Read more…
Mr FPJ and I had a staycation at Hotel Realm and booked in to the Chairman & Yip across the road for dinner. We were shown to our table and menus and water provided. There is a choice of 2 banquets – 6 courses or 8 courses and we went for the latter at $88 […] Read more…

The laksa, with chicken or tofu, ($15) has three types noodles included – egg noodles, flat thick rice flour noodles, and crunchy […] Read more…

Biang biang noodles come from the Shaanxi province of China, and are wheat flour hand pulled noodles that are long and thick. I love noodles so there was much excitement when the signage and menus went up for Biang Biang at the Canberra Centre. Some social media stalking led me to the Biang Biang Sydney […] Read more…
My friends and I had dinner at the Dumpling Inn in Macquarie. I was first introduced to it about 4 years ago (by the same group!) but never got around to writing about it. I remember a dish of pork mince stuffed into fried pockets and requested we order this again. This is the tasty […] Read more…
My friend and I tried out Xi’an Famous Foods in Dickson, a restaurant I’ve walked past several times but never really notice or have plans to go to another restaurant along that strip. Menu items at Xi’an Famous Foods include various cold or hot noodle dishes like biang biang noodles, dumplings, rouguamo/roujiamo (Chinese burgers), meat […] Read more…
We tried out Liโs Dumpling Inn at the Erindale shops (I remember another iteration of a dumpling place in that same spot several years ago). I absolutely love dumplings so Liโs Dumpling Inn went to the top of my list of eateries to visit. On a Saturday, we drove over to check it out. The […] Read more…
China Tea Club in Lyneham is a fancier Chinese restaurant – plush carpet, linen tablecloth, and more sophisticated furniture than your regular cheap and cheerful Chinese spot. I have only dined at China Tea Club once, several years ago, and honestly don’t remember it. So when there was a 50% discount deal on the Fork […] Read more…
