The 2nd day in Sydney had been a rather LAZY day. We set up what we want to do the night before, but ended up did nothing according to what was planned -_-.
Was suppose to wake up early and go Sydney's Fishmarket for brunch but slept till 12pm ! Wah, I was feeling so guilty, spend money on this trip to SLEEP IN?! But hotel beds are so damn comfy , spacious too (been sharing a single bed with Panda - beat that!) !
Then dragged both of us out to explore Sydney Chinatown.
Actually we were looking for this particular famous ramen shop in Sydney, that got quite good reviews. Couldn't find it !!!! ZZZzzz . GoogleMap phail over here.
Cause we were toooo hungry, no choice but to settle for :
Argh. The last thing I want to eat in Australia is Malaysian food. All FAIL one !!!!! They just don't taste like food from home :( So much more expensive some more. But no choice. too fhungry and well, Mamak is really famous here.
My friend brought me here once before, and I had their Roti Tissue, really nice. So just come here only, since the restaurant's always so busy (good sign).
Eddie ordered Nasi Lemak :
I ordered Murtabak Chicken !
haha, don't know why I like to order Murtabak in foreign countries. I had my VERY first Murtabak 4 years ago in Singapore. Forgot what it taste like. Second time was in Melbourne, this time it's my third. Don't know how to compare man cause haven't eaten Malaysia's murtabak, but edible. Taste abit like popiah somehow -_- was it cause everyone in the kitchen = Chinese?!
Then after Mamak, ate Meet Fresh again ^_^
After this meal, the next photo is dinner already. So I think we went back to hotel to spend time with each other. OH YAH, it rained and we didn't have umbrella nor want to invest on any. So stayed indoors.
So hungry again, came out for dinner at Mother Chu's :
It's not as good as I thought now T.T Why ohhh why!!! Was it cause my I had high expectations, or they've really gone bad?
And don't know why people like to serve us the wrong food/order:
I ordered oyster noodle :
Our table:
Something sweet after the meal ...
Freshly made:
The weather that day was super cold and windy, and our cream puffs were piping hawt ! Such a good combo. The wind kinda chilled the crust of the cream puffs (no chance for it to turn wet and soggy) and the cream inside was still warm!!! IT WAS BLISSFUL.
Its quite similar to the kaya balls I had when I was young that looks like this
Then I guess erm, those cream puffs were not enough, we took a stroll along George Street (main street of Sydney) and decided to buy some cakes from Cafe 85degrees! I know the cakes there aren't that good, but its so pretty to look at...and I never fail to not buy them every time I come Sydney.
But we didn't eat immediately la. I felt guilty from so much food, made both of us walk to Circular Quay and back.
Then go Delifrance to smell pastries T.T
I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEE pastries T.T !!!! But somehow I always can't have them. Always wrong timing.
If only there's a black hole in my stomach, eat already then kena vacuumed away somewhere, not converted into fats at all ..That'll be good ! Okaylah, don't want to be greedy, thankful I am still alive and healthy ( I hope).
Go back hotel, pig out on the cakes (and pineapple tart) we bought from Cafe 85degrees :
End of Day 2 !
Pineapple tart reminds me of my late maternal grandmother that passed away 2 years ago. She was the first person who introduced pineapple tarts to me when I was around 10 years old, telling me its really delicious, and gave me a whole box of them. I didn't like the sound of pineapple tart because I didn't like pineapples back then.
But she managed to convince me. The box was really pretty and classy looking (like pretty mooncake boxes), and inside laid 25 pineapple tarts sealed properly, with pretty wraps around each individual square-shaped pineapple tart.
Sigh, miss my late maternal grandma and late paternal grandpa. Thinking of you guys still make my eyes all watery and full of regrets (especially for my grandpa ....)
.....
Also, kinda stumbled upon blogs of people with cancer, and how they battled them. Actually, just 2. Worse thing was that two of them led a very healthy life style, no soft drinks, no junk, loadsa veggies and less meat. They also exercised loads, everything they eat are low in salt and sugar.
How come they get cancer? They looked after their health but yet they get cancer. I kinda eat like them now in Canberra, albeit less discipline (cheat on diet with snacks - chips, chocolates and sweets once in a while).
Does this simply prove that our food is contaminated?
Reminds me of my Aunty that passed away few years ago, from cervical cancer. She's one of the healthiest eater I ever known. She baked her own bread, made her own soy bean milk to drink, eat organic stuffs, but yet....she got cancer! Why ?!?!?!?! How come!?
I remembered asking my dad before why people get cancer, and he answered "Unlucky loh" -_-
I myself haven't been feeling too good lately. The mole on my neck bleed suddenly (again, but just healed), puked 2 weeks ago halfway while exercising in the gym (the last time I vomited was 8 years ago over food poisoning!) , almost fainted while working last Saturday, my chest feel tight and breathe also like damn hard, sometimes got sharp pain, and my menstruation is super late. Feel nausea all the time. =/ weird nia.
