Dutch Smuggler, Broadway

One thing that I can say from this cafe is amazing service! The staffs are very friendly and very accommodating to our needs :) It's newly opened and so when I visited with my sis and Mr.D, there wasn't much patrons dining

First, we ordered the Sticky Brisket Burger with black bun, carrot, daikon, ginger.

$14.5

Next is the Smuggler's Lunch -not my fave tho --

$16

Granola - fruits and coconut yoghurt. I think it's a great dish to start you day! I just wish they gave more coconut yoghurt to balance with the amount of muesli.

Waffle - espresso mascarpone, banana, caramel and strawberry

Must I say, this is the best waffle I've eaten so far! Crisp edge and fluffy middle. it's hard to describe how good it is! U just have to come and try them urself!

$14

Highly recommended cafe. Will come back soon for more dishes!

Brewer's tale, Darlinghurst

Went to Brewer's tale cafe when it opened recently last year. Visited the place with my foodie troops and we ordered pretty much almost everything on the menu!

In my opinion, they have a great range of dishes but some got they highs and lows for us :)

Morning Muesli - Natural yoghurt, fresh seasonal fruit, coconut slices, chia seeds and flaked almonds.

$12.5

Salmon Rush - smoked salmon, capers, baby spinach, feta cheese, sprouts and hash browns. May not look appealing but I promised this is so good! The combo with hash browns are just bomb~

$17.5

Zucchini & Green pea fritters - poached egg, asparagus, smashed avo, lemon, sprouts, red radish, micro herbs, cherry tomatoes and balsamic glaze. Our fave dish of the day. that fritter is so scrumptious, again the photo didn't do any justice to this delish dish!

$17.5

Green Breakfast Bowl - Organic quinoa, kale, haloumi, asparagus, poached eggs, avo, mushroom, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, pine nuts and lemon. Some of us like it but some don't. I personally like this dish but the haloumi still can't beat bread and circus' one.

$22

Matcha Hotcakes - fresh fruits, matcha chocolate, poached pears, coconut slice and slow cooked red beans. Claimed to be their signature dish. Looks amazing and the pancake itself is pretty good, what we love is matcha chocolate!

$21

Brioche French Toast - Fresh fruits, whipped cream, maple syrup. Looks pretty but not our fave.

$17.5

Will definitely come back soon to try our their other dishes ;)

Mini Post 1

The photos below are from a collection of a number of places I visited but I only got 1/2 dishes from the menu. So I thought might as well put them into one random post ;P

If you're a fan of blue cheesecake, then you should try this newly opened cafe in Strathfield (also in Lidcombe now), Korean cafe that sells all sorts of cheesecake, from Camembert cheesecake, green tea, mango, red velvet cheesecake, etc.

Personally, the Camembert and mango cheesecake is really good but the rest is just tasted like sponge cake and not so much on the cheese side.

Visited Ippudo for their dessert. Tried the Black sesame panna cotta which is quite firm for the texture but has a good black sesame note plus the vanilla ice cream on top which is a great combo!

The Matcha brulee is also another must try for sweettooth!

The best fried ice cream dessert you could ask for! Unlike any other thick bread deepfried, Holy Basil uses a thin crisp filo pastry coating the coconut vanilla ice cream and topped with caramelised dessicated coconut, caramel sauce and strawberry. However full you are, please try this out!!

One of the busiest cafe in Manly! Selling a variety of Acai bowl and long queue for this baby! :)

San Churro limited edition special for Valentine this year.. Pretty for photo but it's just a sugar bowl!

Who thought chips and ice cream doesn't goes well together ;P I've always have maccas fried with their soft serve together when I was a kid and this brings back memory! Devon at barangaroo got the Houjicha soft serve with chips. Unfortunately for me, the ice cream has a punch of flavour and the flav itself is quite intense that it doesn't goes well with the chips. But darn tasty soft serve --.

Another Acai bowl cafe in Bondi called Acai Brothers bowl. Long queue but worth the wait :)

Zero Degree ice cream on top of Pungopang (red bean fried bread fish shaped). tried the taro and strawberry flavs and these cuties are located in Regent place downstairs. Not sure if they're still open or not.

My fave coffee spot near my Uni and the freshly baked croissant is a winner! Always long queue in the morning and I always get their Soy Mocha. Some of the staffs are indo and I overheard them one day saying to her friend that they know that Im Indonesian as well haha! Her term of whispering seems to be off ;P

Bite Chew Drink, Sydney

A new eating spot in Regent place Sydney! Its a korean-american restaurant and they are quite creative in creating their menu!

I love this spicy spaghetti with generous amount of cheese and I would love it to be even more spicy! :)

The chicken and chip was a but let down. Lovin the chip and thats it.. The chicken was grilled but no charr on it, tasted quite bland and I think the sauce fail to blend everything together.. it's just tasted sweet.

A must get platter!! That's all I can say..

So two great dish out of three, not bad :)

Harajuku Gyoza, Potts Point (New Menu)

I've posted some yummy foods by Harajuku Gyoza before. This post is about their new exciting menu that will be available in store and also what they sell in Night market in brisbane :) I am so lucky that I got invited to try these yummy foods first hand!

First below here is the cute OctoDog. Sausage wrapped with bread and deep fried and shaped as this cute octopus! Apparently this snack is really popular in their night market in Bne~! can't wait to have them in Sydney as well --

They also have a new Frose Rose drink on their menu, its a slushie alcoholic drink with a hint of rose. Refreshing and aromatic at the same time! Love thiss! Definitely must try, perfect companion for the gyozas!

In my first post, I only posted the Original Raindrop cake but this time I did take the Greentea one too and they have a new one, strawberry flavour! My favourite is still the Green tea though, but very pretty tricoloured dessert :)

If you haven't try this melt-in-the-mouth jelly, u definitely should!

New dessert in their menu too is this Watermelon Jelly with Choc chip as the seeds. So cute and Hugeee! It can feeds maybe 4-5 desserts lover at a time ~~

Sydney recently has been hit by Cheesecake fever by the famous Uncle tetsu's wobbly cheesecake. When Original cheesecake is getting too mainstream, Harajuku Gyoza now bake their own Green tea cheesecake! It will be available in store through phone order and booking only, so no walk-ins. It's $22 per box and I can guaranteed it wobbles and tasted as light as Uncle Tetsu's, and this is better cause it's green teaaaaa cheesecake hehe! They also have the original one available. :)

So this time, I got to bake my very own cheesecake :) Not bad despite the crack on top hehe ~~

Thanks harajuKu Gyoza and Mr.R for inviting meeee :)
