the golden fang in chippendale

06.09.09

golden fang. who comes up with these names? if anyone know the significance of this name, please let us know. the place seems to be fairly busy all the time – mostly with asian international uni students – which is generally a good sign of being good food at good prices. anyone been there who cares to review it?

Combination Laksa

29.8.09

mmmm, malaysian curry laksa.

I was on facebook this morning and my friend in brisbane, Ron, shouted out that he was loving his laksa. a few people stuck over in the UK lamented on how they just can’t find a good laksa in london.

it got me in the mood for a laksa, so i sauntered on down to the sussex centre foodhall in chinatown this afternoon to get my fix. (combination means they throw in pork, beef, chicken, scallops, squid, fish and tofu).

if there are any laksa aficionados out there in london, can you help guide these poor souls in the right direction by posting a short review here in the comments?

many thanks, on their behalf.

the naughty chef

06.8.09

this is a total non-shot, but i have seen this place down near central station often and have thought the same thing each time.

naughty chef….

what does that mean?

does he piss in my pho?

i have never eaten here before, so i can’t judge the quality of food – it could be mind-blowingly good, but is it just me who thinks that is not a great business name?

as an ex-chef myself, and having seen the antics of a few in the profession, i would much prefer a nice chef to a naughty one anytime, next question is… how many ‘nice’ chefs are out there?

spaghetti carbonara in the new house

hey it might not look smashing, but it tasted great!

was moving house all day, so didn’t have a chance to scratch my ass, let alone get any pics. So this is the only shot i managed to get today.

asian supermarket

I absolutely love coming here and stocking up my freezer and pantry.

It’s the place I head to when I’m running low on pickled yak testicles.
