Pretentious food … or who gobbed on my meal?
I don’t get this whole “foam” food thing. I’m not a fussy eater. Heck, I’ll try anything that doesn’t have a deceased animal in it. But when this dish showed up in front of me on our trip to San Francisco last month, it did take me back a second. On the menu, this was listed … Continue reading
On the hunt for decent takeaways – Little India – Merivale
Ah Indian food, I have missed you! This afternoon we took the doglets to visit some friends, so got takeaways from Little India in Merivale on the way home. I used my iPhone to check their online menu and phoned the order through. We chose the Paneer Shimla Mirch (Home made Indian cottage cheese cooked with … Continue reading
Carthay Circle Restaurant at Disney California Adventure
As part of our VIP tour to Disneyland for the 60th, we got a private tour of Carthay Circle Restaurant and the exclusive 1901 lounge (more on that in a future post). This was the first time I’d been inside the Carthay Circle Restaurant. Typically we don’t do sit down dining while at Disney – it’s … Continue reading
On the hunt for decent takeaways – Hello Vietnam Restaurant – Riccarton
A freezing cold winter night, storms-a-comin’ … takeaways for dinner on the way back from a friend’s place. We decided to try the fairly recently opened Hello Vietnam Restaurant in Riccarton. If you know the area, its in the new group of shops on Riccarton Road near the corner of the Clyde Road intersection. A trap … Continue reading
On the hunt for decent takeaways – Green Leaf – Bishopdale
We had important things to discuss, like holidays for 2016, so decided to get takeaways and have a chat over the meal. It was decided that we should get Indian and this time we picked Green Leaf in Bishopdale. This is a firm favourite with my brother and my parents who used to regularly … Continue reading
On the hunt for decent takeaways – Five Stars Vietnamese Restaurant – Fendalton
It was my 31st birthday (again! 🙂 ) and my choice for takeaways. I was tempted to go back to My Hanh but in the theme of trying the different options for takeaways in the area decided we should try Five Stars Vietnamese Restaurant in Fendalton. We have been here before but again it was years … Continue reading
On the hunt for decent takeaways – My Hanh – Upper Riccarton
This time, cats to the vet for their annual jabs so takeaways it is. Many years ago we were regulars to My Hanh, a Vietnamese restaurant in Upper Riccarton. If you know the area, it’s just opposite the standalone Countdown in one of the alleys. It’s actually just along from last weeks choice Spice’n’Life. Due … Continue reading
On the hunt for decent takeaways – Spice’n’life – Upper Riccarton
Ever optimistic after our fairly average curry last week, we decided to try the slightly dodgy looking Spice’n’Life in Upper Riccarton (Church Corner). I didn’t personally go, but by all accounts the decor isn’t all that, but on the bright side, the clientele is Indian – a good sign. And this is a good example … Continue reading
On the hunt for decent takeaways – Sai Touch of Spice – Coach Corner
Long story short, a trip to the vet during our usual meal time was a good excuse to get takeaways this week. We had a loyalty card to redeem a free curry at Sai Touch of Spice at Coach Corner, so that sealed the deal. Their menu is here. We got Aloo Gobi and Vegetable Khadai. … Continue reading
