Boon Cafe @ Haymarket, Sydney

7/31/2016 07:56:00 pm

Hiiii
Let's just jump right into it, shall we?
Yes, is another food post! =)

I was out with a good gal pal of mine, and we randomly chose this place to have brunch cause well the images online looks great!
So we wanted to try it out!
And we did!!
Boon cafe is a modern Chat Thai diner! So check it out!

Coffee, as you know I'm not a coffee drinker, so obviously is not mine.
And I'm sorry for those who are curious what coffee drink is this, I'd forgotten.
So my apologies.
Pandan Custard Toast $4
We ordered it cause it was on the recommended items for this cafe, and it was not wrong!
For this amount of toasts and it actually have the taste of Pandan, is awesome!!!
Is creamy, thick and the flavour is just perfect!
As some stores, their pandan flavour doesn't have the taste of pandan, so this is food from back home!
Gosh I miss kaya!! ><
I ordered the Nahm Prik Nuum Sandwich $13
Which basically contains northern region green chilli relish, spicy pork herb sausage (which caught my attention), soft-boiled egg, soft herb and pickled cabbage salad.
And in conclusion!
It tasted like otak-otak! And is amazing!! The spice is not as bad as you can't keep on eating spicy, but is tolerable.
I'm missing this dish now....
My friend ordered their dish that was recommended online, and she said that it was a good choice that she ordered this, cause she love it!
Naam Todt $13
Which contains fried fermented pork and rice cake, peanuts, soft herbs, pickled cabbage salad.
And it sounds and look amazing doesn't it?!
While waiting for our food, well I finally took some selfie from my camera.
My insta, go check it out!! - sarahlee95

Then we had time to burn anyways, so we head over to Hyde Park.

Calabur Cafe & Diner, Bondi Junction @ Sydney

6/04/2016 08:37:00 pm

Hey peeps! 

Back with a short post! 
I wanted to update my 'dead blog' before I can relax and do my assignment, or else this post will forever be at the back of my mind annoying me. 

So, I went to Calabur Cafe & Diner at Bondi Junction with my relatives. 
Well I never knew this store existed until I was there. #newbieinsydney

Hidden in a small spot in one of the busy streets in Bondi, Calabur serves a mixture of Asian cuisines. 
This cafe is clearly one of those perfect small and cozy cafes ever! The best kind of place to hang out with your friends and family!
I did mention some cafes back home are cozy, but I was wrong. 
This cafe, is small but yet is amazing! 
Sadly, you can't make any reservation in advance for breakfast and lunch. 
You can only make reservations for dinner. 
The great thing about this cafe is that they serve all day breakfast! (which is actually quite normal over here)
Apparently everyone loves breakfast!
 I ordered one of their famous dishes, called the Mama's Egg Pudding - $16.
Which is steam egg with bacon bits and Chinese sausages, toasts and salad.
Doesn't sound much, but it did it's job in filling me up!
And I love it, is just so good. The egg is light and fluffy and it matches well with the toast and the sausages.
A great choice for a light meal.
In addition, I ordered their detox juice! It's pretty in pink!
And here goes to another short post!
Hugs and Hearts for all of you, my readers! =)
I only have two more weeks of uni left with just 2 and a half assignments to go.
Can't wait for my winter break to start! To let my adventure begin!
Talk to you guys soon!



Love Me!! XOXO ♥♥♥♥

The Grounds of Alexandria @ Sydney

5/24/2016 06:58:00 pm

Hi Hi!! 

So glad that I'm back to my little corner of everything. 

My cousin brought me over to The Grounds of Alexandria for the first time. 
With what I saw in the pictures, it was already amazing! 
The whole place is just so Instagram worth, just saying~ 
I really do love the place, it's big enough to have 3 different places to dine in, and also a few stalls to sell cute mini doughnuts and pastries.
I never tried those pastries as we were full from our huge and amazing lunch!
Just look how cute and mini those pastries are!
I would definitely try it when I visit this place again.
So my cousin and I, had lunch at The Cafe. 
There's also The Garden and The Potting Shed to dine in which also have really beautiful ambiance and great food for you to enjoy.  
Being serious here, I have no idea what to order. 
And I was just looking at the menu for so long! 
In the end, made the decision to have their The 'Ground' Burger for $19.
I love the chips so much, it's just crispy on the outside and everything melts once you bite it in! Just heavenly! 
My cousin ordered their Lamb Ragout Pappardelle for the same price as my burger too. 
I was worried for their huge serving, but with my cousin and I sharing the chips, we manage to finish off all the food.
And the burger isn't as big as I thought, which is great!
They have a bakery too!
Even though I would love to enjoy all of their pastries, sadly I was just too stuff.
They also have a flower shop.
Might be a great place to buy a last minute present to an event =)
They also sell candles and pretty cutleries in the store, so go in and check it out!

The main entrance to the cafe is decorated prettily with lights and potted plants.
#OOTD
Top: I'm sorry I don't remember where my black tank top is from.
Cardigan: Cotton On
Pants: Uniqlo
Sunglasses: Gucci
Bag: Pierre Cardin
Shoes: Toms
The weather isn't as cold, so I can just wear lightly around, which is awesome!
*Now I'm missing my shorts*
This is The Potting Shed area to enjoy tea with family and friends, I love how they decorated here.
They also have this picture printing machine in every dining area, once posted the picture in Instagram with their specific hashtag, the machine will print out the image in 30 seconds.
And my once private Instagram became public just for this, because I wanted a free printed picture.
This was the picture that's printed! Look how cute that is! =D
And of course, an awesome place with great ambiance and amazing food, just brought my whole mood up.
Did I mention that they have a petting zoo too!
But I was in a hurry, so no pictures were taken.
How amazing is this place!
I'm glad that I'm back, but uni has been busy. 
So, I'll will see you guys when I see you! =) 
Enjoy!

Sydney Korean Festival 2016 @ Darling Harbour

4/24/2016 08:11:00 pm

2nd April 2016 

Hi Gals!! 
So so sorry for the MIA in the past two weeks, uni just got me busy not only mentally but physically too. I was so tired doing my assignments and just did not have the time to update my blog! 
But here I am now!! 

Went to a Korean Festival near Darling Harbour, it was a sunny day! I have to say the sun here is crazy! It's way more hotter compare to Malaysia!
So my friend and I hang around just to look around, before we run away for shade.  
There were many stalls at the sides that sells food and snacks. 
I saw this deep fried twisted potato, and was so tempted to try it! Which in the end I bought it. 
I can even choose my own topping which I chose my favourite - sour cream and onion!  
They were having traditional performance while I was there, but with my height, I just gave up watching the performance. 
Then, after enjoying my twisted potato, we headed off to Darling Harbour for lunch.
Since I'm still a newbie here, my friend was guiding and showing me around. 
Then head over to Blackbird Cafe as she recommended. 
We sat outside and enjoyed the Darling Harbour view =) 
Their pizza is actually quite good! I enjoyed it! 
Then, we took the water taxi to Museum of Contemporary Arts Australia unplanned.
Well my friend needed to do her photography assignment, while I follow her so that I can explore around.
The Harbour Bridge view from the water taxi!
Opera House from the top floor cafe of the Museum.
#OOTD 
Hat : H&M
Romper : Jay Jays
Cardigan : Cotton On 
Shoes : Toms 
Bag : Pierre Cardin 
I'm glad that I wore a romper on that sunny day, cause now the weather is cold and I just want to bundle myself up in jumpers and pants!
Enjoy the sun while I can right hahaha =D
I'm had fun walking around, exploring the city!
And also spending time with my friend =)
Hope that we can go out again soon!
And I hope that you guys enjoy this post too! =)
Sorry for not posting for so long, so here I am alive and well.

Redang Island Trip [Day 1]

6/03/2015 10:40:00 pm

Hi guys and gals!!!
I'm back with another post!  
My sem break is officially over and to make things short. 
Here's my trip over to Pulau Redang during my break! =) 

The trip was awesome, fun! And I got tanner, but with a few days of just staying in my room, I manage to become back to my fair self =D

In case you guys were wondering, why am I so high up in the pic below. 
Cause the guys who were taking pics of us, pull me up so suddenly while taking the pic. Lol!! 
My eyes were open, but so so so small -.- 
I was shocked! 
Very much shocked! =0 
But I survived, and super love this pic actually 
On the 21st of May. 
Woke up super early in the morning from KL, took a flight to Kuala Terengganu.
Reached there at around 9am+ 
Then we took an hour and half boat ride over to Pulau Redang. 
So, it was around 11am+ when we do reach our hotel. 
Hotel that we are staying is Laguna Resort. 
This is the place where the Hong Kong movie called '夏日的么么茶' is filmed.  
I never watched the film before, cause duh.. I was only like 5? =D 
But they showed the movie in the hotel TV on repeat and yes in the end I watched it. 
Fact: The songs '对面的女孩看过来' and '浪花一朵朵' is from this movie.  

Here's the main building of the resort! 
Refreshing or welcoming drinks were given to the guests who just arrived. 
Look at that view =) 
The white sandy beach, the clear blue sea and also the cloudless blue sky!
Is just an awesome view.
Buffet is our everyday meal, breakfast, lunch and dinner.
I'm not saying that they make good food.
Of course Penang have better food.
But their food is edible and great =)
We have a quart bed room!
First time hearing it right?
Usually there's twin bed room which is common, and us siblings have to order an extra bed cause there's 3 of us!
But now with this quart bed room!
It's so so cool! =D
After resting and having our lunch.
The activities began!
At 3pm, we rented our snorkelling goggles and life jackets.
And off we go on our FIRST EVER SNORKELLING TRIP!!!
Us 3 
In the sea!!
Yes, we were swimming in an open sea.
I was drinking tons of salty liquid while swimming. =(
Tasted really really salty.
And I haven't been swimming for years.
Thank goodness there's a life jacket, or else I will be even nearer with the fishes and corals.
After a few practise we manage to get the hang of it.
And gosh!
Underwater experience is something that everyone, yes EVERYONE! should try out!
The silent world under you just make you go wahh!! 
And like people who had experience, all you can hear is your own breathing.
The silent world just brings another beauty into it. =)
And we also manage to get underwater pictures.
I seriously want a Go-Pro for my birthday lol.
I have to pay for these pics, which I guess is worthy! =)
The underwater world! =)
Older bro, me, Sam and Daddy. =D
Family pic!! Mom is taking her own sweet time on the beach. =)
After around an hour of swimming and enjoying the beauty of another world.
We head back to the boat and went back to our resort to rest! =)
Tan, tired but all smiles =D
Okay I lied that we were going to rest.
But, ermm... we head to the beach in front of our resort!
We played around in the water.
Feeding fishes and I have to sacrifice my camera to take pics for them.
The pretty and the goofy *smirk!*
The sea here, is just so clear and beautiful. 
And I'm sure that I can stare at it the whole day. =) 
Pretty isn't it? =)
And then all of a sudden, my brothers decided to build a sandcastle.
I admit that we never build a sandcastle before, cause we rarely go to our beach back in Penang.
And now we had the chance and the time, so why not?
They took hours lol, by using our cousin's tools and build up this multi-levelled castle!
They are proud of it.
Last but not least, the main attraction for that day!
Green turtles!
Baby Green Turtles!!!
We were lucky enough to meet them, and also had the chance to free them!
It was an awareness campaign that they were holding.
And for each turtle, we have to pay RM20.
On the website, it says RM80! =0 *mindblown!!*

I've always wanted to free a turtle, it's an rare experience and opportunity to do it!
And with me nagging about it, my parents allowed! =D
This is one of my all times bucket list!
And I manage to cross it off! =D
Happy me!! 
This little one should stay strong and live long in the sea! =)
Forgot to mention what I wore the whole day.
#OOTD
Crop Top : Materials.
Swimming tops and bottoms : Ogival

So that's it for the first day of our Redang Island trip! =)
Hope you guys had fun reading, as much as I have fun writing it all out for you guys.



Love Me!! XOXO

Sekeping Victoria│DCOVA

3/17/2015 11:25:00 pm

Hi Heyyy =) 
Went out with Nicole and without LC. Cause she was in KL. 
So yea, on the 6th of March we went to Sekeping Victoria because of the pretty interior and also head to DCOVA for dinner. =) 

Sekeping Victoria is right opposite of China House's back door.
Well for me, it is consider as the back door caused that door was facing at Lebuh Victoria, which is where Sekeping Victoria's entrance is at =D
We went at around 4pm.
The place is open air, and on that day itself, the weather was hot!
So ya, try to find a much cooler time to go there.
Love the interior of the whole place. =)
Just love the walls and the unique chairs, with the trees in between the cafe, but doesn't look too much.
The cafe itself is huge, and they even have places to stay upstairs.
The other side of the cafe =)
Took this pic from the back of the cafe =)
Pretty =D
So we ordered some treats for ourselves.
Owh ya, btw, met Jacques and Annabelle when I reached. =D Hii!!
So back to the food, ordered some quite expensive food. Lol
Mocha RM10.50
And it doesn't taste anything like a mocha, more like a coffee instead. *bleak*
And again coffee art =)
Simple and nice.
Ordered a mille crepe, which I forgotten the name of it ><
But it has alcohol inside for RM15 a piece.
It's quite nice, but I won't order it again.
And that's how I spent my money.
On expensive yet normal tasting food =(
Haiz
Then, we chatted until there was no one around.
Start taking pictures time.
Candid. Or not?
With someone's help. Or not?
It's up to you to guess =D
And I know Nicole will kill me that I post this pic, but I look nice in this =D
Me not caring about her presence =D
This is what we do in out free time, laugh at some nonsense from social media =D
And this is the truth, me waiting for her to finish up 'our' shared mocha because it tasted more like coffee and I don't like it =D
Love this pic, with the walls and everything =)
#OOTD
Top : Dotti
Shorts : H&M
Shoes : Aldo
Thanks to bff, who manage to take tons of pics and some which I really can post it up.
Me with my serious face on checking up my pics that Nicole took Lol!! 
She was so annoyed that I called her to take pics of me from this angle and that angle =D 
But I know she still love me ♥
Thank you bff ♥♥
Then we head over to DCOVA
Which we heard that it served good and reasonable price pasta.
We went there early, so there's not a single person yet.
Food was amazing for just RM18.90 
Cabonara was really creamy and really delicious, if you ask me I would go back again =D 
 I'm craving for this now =0!!
Waiting for Nicole to finish taking pic of the cabonara =D 
'Are we done here?? I wanna eat!!' =D
#OOTD
Kimono Cardigan : Cotton On (Australia)
Really love the tribal design ♥
And I guess that's the end of my small retreat with Nicole. =)
We went to Coffeesmith later on and just chatted and chatted =)
So ya, just be happy and be like me in the pic.
Run and fly with the wind with a smile =D

P.S. : I think I got a bit crazy at the end of the day =D





Love Me!! XOXO ♥♥♥♥
