| Chicken Karaage Obento Box |
Met up with a friend for lunch after all of my classes had finished for the day... Went to Himawari for lunch, seeing that my friend was also a regular there... Haven't been to Himawari for a very long time.. Can't even remember the last time I stepped foot here..

Actually wanted to go to sushi train for dinner, but due to the waiting time so we drove back and decided to give this a try.. Used to be located in Aspley in a Caravan Complex area as their main restaurant but now have moved here to Clock Corner which is a mini shopping complex next to a train station...

| Heavenly-Melt-in-your-mouth Peking Duck Skin |
He took me to Pine & Bamboo in Cannon Hill the other day and I was so very excited... He's recommended this last time saying that it was the best Peking Duck he's tasted.. And yet, it was my time to find out... See, eating peking duck wasn't actually planned at first, but when I mentioned the fact that I was suddenly missing Peking Duck, he suggested to come.. and i could not reject the offer..

| Cheese Chicken & Wings (no wings in this photo) |
It seems as if these days I've just been stuck in uni studying and at home... So, another catch-up session was made.. and it was between Maru and Wara Wara Izakaya, and the decision was made and Wara Wara it was... Located basically right next to each other on Elizabeth St in Brisbane CBD... Wara Wara Izakaya is probably the newest korean restaurant that I know of in Brisbane CBD at the moment... The owner is the same owner as Koogi Hair, also in the CBD..
Newly refurbished reconstructed Wintergarden in the Brisbane CBD has the feeling of a garden.. with the butterflies and flowers imprinted mostly everywhere I go around the corner... The very top level consists of the restaurants and entertainment area which were also refurbished, and do i have to say that they look much nicer and better than how it used to be... Went to Wagamama for a catch-up sesh and truthfully, my previous experience in Wagamama wasn't that good or maybe it was just my asian tongue being disturbed by the asian fusion feeling I felt when I was there... Wagamama started in London's Bloomsbury in 1992 inspired by their traditional japanese ramen bars and asian flavours... Mainly focusing on Japanese dishes, it has spread all around the world...
This blog post has been long overdue indeed with the event of the 'Pure Bier Fest 2012 Bloggers Dinner' being held on May in Bavarian Bier Cafe in Eagle Street Pier.. Finally, I have decided to post this blog now, excuse my lateness in doing so though... I have been busy and had trouble trying to locate these photos from my files.. Was invited by OCOM for a blogger's dinner on a Friday evening to launch Pure Bier Fest which goes for a month..

| variety of fusion(ed) sushis |
I've been here a couple of times but never had the chance of reviewing it, so i'm doing it now.. Oishii Sushi Bar is located in a little shopping complex called Pinelands Centre... Its surroundings only has restaurants ranging from Oishii themself, a chinese restaurant next to them, a Korean BBQ restaurant upstairs and others.. It is not Japanese owned or operated Japanese restaurant, and I did end up knowing the owner and a chat with them everytime I do come by.. They're really nice owners and are very friendly.. But I do have to say, out of all the sushi restaurants I have eaten around, whether it's in southside or northside or in the city area, I would have to say that this might be the best sushi around in Brissy.. Their sushi may be fusion as I may call it as there are sushi that they do have that you wouldn't be able to find anywhere else or another word would be, unique or not typical..

| Roast Pork Belly Laksa Hut |
Laksa Hut's original venue was at Toowong and that was where I tried my first Laksa in Laksa Hut and do I have to say that it was delish which made me reminisce about the good old days when I was living in Singapore when I was young.. the pork belly, oh my gooooooooooodness... weren't they crispy skinned pork belly... roasted well, asian style... Definitely worth a try for many of the international students who misses their asian dishes from their country roots and all.. or any of you who want to try Laksa and I guess, and I would have to say that this is probably the best Laksa I have eaten in Brisbane..
First encounter with Chocolateria San Churro was when I was in Melbourne.. and even then, there was only time for churros bought during that time... Surprised to hear and see that it was going to open in Southbank in Brisbane, I finally went and had another try...
