Some interesting dishes. Wonder how much they cost.

We all know students gets lots of breaks and holidays. Luckily I am still a student and after the mid semester exams, I took a 5 day hiatus to visit my good friend down in Sydney. Didn’t visit many places, but I pigged out big time. Here are some quick snaps of some of the food I got to eat down there, all of which was far better than Brisbane food.

BSA is holding an all-you-can-eat Sukiyaki lunch for their members. Those who are members can attend for only $15. For those who do not know what Sukiyaki (すき焼き), it is similar to the chinese/korean hotpot or steamboat, but instead of light soup base with dipping sauce, there is no sauce for sukiyaki since the soup is really strong in flavour. Typically the ingredients include sliced beef and vegetables such as Shitake mushrooms.

Have been swamped with study and exams lately, and not only that, it has been a rainy week as well. Cold and gloomy, we decided to have hotpot to boost our spirit up. Havne’t had dinner at home for some time now with the family so it was good to do so. Nothing special, just some bought some fish balls, meat balls, tofu fish, vegetables, some seafood and other random stuff and chucked it in the pot or as some people like to call it, steamboat.

Tried something different on the weekend, and instead of the usual asian food we get, I went with a few gaming comrades to Enchilada’s for Mexican food. If you haven’t had Mexican food, it is essentially lots of salsa, tomatoes, cheese, corn chips, flour, chilli with some sort of meat such as mince beef, steak or chicken.

After work today, I headed down to the Gold Coast with a few friends and my other half for ramen.  Have had a craving for Japanese ramen for quite sometime now but did not get a chance to go.  This store down at the coast has only 4 things on the menu, which gives you little choice, but makes it very simple to choose your meal.  This might be a disadvantage in most people’s eyes, but I see it as something quite hard to achieve for a business.  The product must have to be awesome in order for it to become so popular that the store can survive on the 1 meal.

Snagged this off Dannychoo.com and found it very interesting.  ’外人’ or ‘gaijin’ while visiting and dining at a sushi train in Japan, placed their digital camera on the conveyor and recorded the reactions of the people eating on the conveyor when they saw it.
