  • Caesar Salad

    One of my favourite hotel room service tests is to order a Caesar Salad… Here’s what I had tonight at the Novotel on Little Collins, a decent Caesar Salad, loads of croutons, parmesan, and bacon bits, but no poached egg on top which was a little disappointing. Not the best, but far from the worst one I’ve had.

  • Pho

    Finally got around to making Pho at home, and I might be a bit biased here, but damn that was tasty! Can’t understand why I’ve waited so long to make my own, it was so quick and easy to make.

  • Nearly Home

    I was going to work on the train on the way home from Sydney, but have been spending all my time staring out the window listening to music. Oh well.
