My toddler’s gotta list of foods that she refuses to eat & it’s multiplying LOl Nova has become quite picky which has lead to meal times being dragged out as her preference determines how quickly she will finish meals. It varies from 10mins to 1hr. A whole forking hour, who has the patience for that. No, not me, not…
I love a good brunch spot, who doesn’t. I really do the love the brunch culture we have here in Sydney, so diverse. Listing (in no particular order) a selection of my favourite brunch spots in Sydney, have you been? ① Four Little Foxes, Milperra ② Black Elk Espresso, Carnes Hill ③ Grano, Wetherill Park ④ Harvest Cafe, Bonnyrigg ⑤ Carter & G’s,…
CAN THO 1. Sweet & Sour Soup, Braised Catfish (Canh Chua, Cá Kho Tộ) A whole selection of traditional Vietnamese home dishes here at Cẩm Ký restaurant, but we didn’t even bother to look further into the menu when we saw “canh chua & cá kho tộ”. This is by far my favourite Vietnamese dish, very tasty & easy to eat. Don’t…
Hoi An 1. Chicken Rice (Cơm Gà) It wasn’t difficult to locate this little restaurant as there was a long queue for this dish. We took a walk & came back just in time before they close.

I’ve been to Vietnam countless times & not once have I experienced food poisoning with street food.…
Hanoi There’s really no other way to discover the heart of a country than to embrace its culture by eating like a local. I mean how else are you really going to experience ‘different’ if you don’t try to ‘blend in’. No matter how many times I’ve been to North Vietnam, my taste buds are reawakened every time. I also…
Sea Snails & Shellfish Aside from well-known Vietnamese foods like phở & bánh mì there is the amazing selection of beer food (món nhậu). Sea snails & shellfish (ốc) has got to be the most common/popular type of beer food in Vietnam I reckon. The texture will vary from chewy-rubbery, gooey, slimy, or even crunchy which may disinterest you at…
Coconut & Condensed Milk The coconut & condensed milk iced coffee (aka bạc xĩu) is very popular in Northern Vietnam & I can see why. I’m not really a coffee or coconut cream person, but I’d have this drink any day & everyday. The combination of coffee, coconut & condensed milk goes so well together. It wasn’t too strong or…
