A tasty bento – REN Japanese Restaurant

This afternoon, I and my wife went to a new Japanese Restaurant in Runcorn Plaza.   The atmosphere is quite comfortable and the staff are friendly.  I like this restaurant.

After we scanned through the menu, we finally ordered a Bento special for $21.  That was a big lunch!

Firstly, we had a streamed egg. Yummy, inside the egg, it had a mushroom and prawn!

Hong Kong Style Wonton Noodle@Zen corner

Hong Kong Style Wonton Noodle@Zen corner

 

Last Saturday,  we went to a new noodle bar, Zen corner , in Sunnybank Plaza for our lunch. When I looked at their menu, there is Hong Kong Style Wonton Noodle. That is great! I must try it!

That tasted good, quite authentic. Each wonton had prawn and pork, not bad.  The noodle was nice and fresh too! Moreover, the price is reasonable too. Large size which was the one I ordered costed $12, had 12 pieces of wonton (The small one is $9). The price is fair. I was about the lunch!

Frozen Yogurt@ Nominom

Frozen Yogurt@ Nominom

Frozen Yogurt has been popular in Hong Kong for a while. Last year, I was in Hong Kong, I saw a lot of Frozen Yogurt in there.  In recent years, it becomes popular in Brisbane too. All major shopping centers at least have one Frozen Yogurt.

Well, I wish to have one too! So, I bought a groupon coupon, for Nominom. That is $3 coupon has $6 value! And few weeks ago,  I went to there for a trial.  The way to buy frozen yogurt is interesting. They are not selling Frozen Yogurt per cup. The price is counted by weight, $2 for 40g. You can freely choose any frozen yogurt base with the topping.  I got $6 voucher, therefore I could have 240g.

I chose Coffee Frozen Yogurt as the based. Choosing topping was a bit headache. So many choices, there were various selections of fruits, candy and chocolate.  Finally, I chose some M&M, chocolate with some of mango and kiwi fruit. I got the job done, that was my frist frozen yogurt.

Free Refill @ Lucky Inn

Afternoon Tea@Lucky Inn

Last week, I went to Lucky Inn for afternoon tea as our lunch.I ordered a baked black pepper sauce chicken  rice which is $8.90 with a hong kong drink. The portion is not small at all. However, the most interesting feature is refill for the drink. All customers ordered afternoon meal set can have a refill for the same type of drink in the meal. That is value for money!

Touch of India At Garden City

Butter Chicken @Touch of IndiaThere are many good Indian takeaway around Brisbane, such as Touch of India at Garden City. It is quite new, I remember that only opened a few months. When I passed by the food court at level 1 I can smell the taste of curry from this restaurant.  Well, I have tried their curry one times too! I ordered a curry special, included a can of soft drink, a naan bread and a curry rice. That was a good deal, only $9.90 and you can choose any curry! This times, I chose butter chicken. That was great and it tasted good, not very creamy! I love it. The dish was full of favor of curry! The naan bread was good too! I put “Touch of India” on the list of Michael’s choices for restaurants.

Morrison Hotel

chicken schnitzel@Morrison Hotel

A lot of my friends and I love Morrison Hotel. My friends say that is the best streak house in Brisbane. When I was in university and worked there late, my unimates and I went to this restaurant for a late dinner. That was because it was very tasty and near my university.
After I graduated, I did not go to Southbank that often. That was until recently, when I had a chance to visit there again! That was another amazing lunch! I had a chicken schnitzel. That was crunchy! Moreover, that was with the mushroom sauce, which was great! I loved it, a lot of mushrooms! Lastly, the size was so big! After I had that, I still felt it until dinner time!
That was an enjoyable lunch! However, I wish to remind you, this restaurant has not many parking spots and nearby areas have any free parking spots too. Please be aware of that!

Big feast in Ikea

Fishermen Basket @IKEA
Most times, I eat fish and chips at ikea. Normally, that’s under $10.
Last Thursday, however, I had something different. I spent $12.99 for dinner. That was lot more than before. I had a fishermen’s basket. That included a fish fillet, crab, prawns and octopus. Moreover, there was a chocolate tart as a dessert. That was tasty and filling. For that amount of food, $12.99 was not too much!
I was fully satisfied!

Yum Cha at Haoke Chinese Seafood Restaurant

I remember when I was in Hong Kong, we went to yum cha every morning. This was our breakfast style, eating a ton of little dishes called dim sims every day. At that time, I really did not like that much, because that was the same every day and it was very very noisy.
After I moved to Brisbane, I changed my mind. I love yum cha. Firstly, the restaurants in Brisbane are much more comfortable. Secondly, I do not go to yum cha every day, so I will not get bored. Thirdly, yum cha is a good way to gather with friends. We can sit around a big table and have some causal chat. Thus, we always have friends’ gathering over yum cha. Just like last week, I went to Yum Cha with my friend at Haoke, which is one of my favourite restaurants.

pork dim sims @ Haoke

We had a good time and tried a lot of tasty dishes in there. We have pork dim sims The meat was great quality. It is authentic. That sounds like the chief is really from Hong Kong!

Cantonese Egg tarts @ Haoke
Also, we had my favourite dish, Cantonese Egg tarts which is a kind of egg custard tart pastry. That was very great. The pastry is very nice and the egg custard looks very golden and attractive! I had two of them, I wanted to have more,but I was full.
That was a great lunch. I love Haoke! I wish I can go there soon again.

Sunny Seoul – Korean BBQ

Sunny Soul Korean BBQ

A few weeks ago, my friend and I went to have Korean BBQ again. This is because one of my friends loves Korean BBQ a lot. Moreover, that friend has highly recommended Sunny Seoul in Sunnybank; she said that was the best Korean BBQ she had in Brisbane ever.

sweet soy sauce chicken and pork belly - Sunny Soul

On that night we ordered two dishes, sweet soy sauce chicken and pork belly. That was so delicious. My friend’s recommendations are 100% right! The meat is marinated well.  The sauce and the meat are the perfect match. That was so good!!!

Side dishes - Sunny Soul

 

In addition, the side dishes are great too!!! There were around six dishes, which included kimchi and various types of salad. I loved the mashed potato salad the most.

That was a super tasty dinner! My tummy got bigger!!! Lastly, I have to remind you to book a table in advance; because we came without making a booking first, we spent half an hour waiting for seats.
