Pizza Bianca, Spanish Chorizo


Pizza Bianca was on tonight's dinner menu, made the dough fresh at home. The only problem i had while making the dough was where should i put them to proof the dough? I can't seems to find a warm spot in the house.

So I've tried putting the dough into a stainless steel bowl, wrapped them with cling film then put them under the sun.Not really working that well.

It just sprung my mind that i could have put them ontop of the coffee machine! It works fine, no, it works well instead. NOTE TO SELF: COFFEE MACHINE NEXT TIME!!

After cooking them into a not so well evenly heated oven, they turned out alright, the dough taste a bit overworked though! I guess that could be because the Kenwood Chef Mixer that i have wasn't working that well in small batches! I ended up using hand to form the dough into a small ball, the machine is just not forming them together!

Anyway, problem set apart, homemade pizza is always better than the one you have out there (those pizza chain store!)


Dinner tonight's a bit of everything, just like tapas. Clockwise from left: Pizza Bianca, Rosa's famous chorizo, Olive Farm Wines' marinated olives, sweet potato chip, and also a big bowl of salad.


I was around Wembley area last week, went to Spanish Flavour to get some really famous chorizo from this lady - Rosa.

If you love the chorizo from Cantina, Pata Negra, Andaluz, just to name a few. But most of the really good chorizo that you get around Perth, are most probably from Spanish Flavour.

Dao Vien Vietnamese

While we all know not to expect too much of spectacular experience when going to an Asian Restaurant, except for fast and tasty food. It doesn't bother me much if they were not providing top notch service or the tables were sticky, or using chipped crockery, as long as the food is good. Unfortunately ... Dao Vien is not like the others.  An empty restaurant with tired looking decor  Walking into the restaurant for lunch, immediately gave me a weird sense of vibe. It was hot and stuffy, I wondered if it was open as there were no other customers during lunch peak hour. We waited long for the lady owner to notice us and gave us a table. It was a huge place with lots of table but majority of the small table have dirty dishes that were left uncleared. Dirty tables all around us Well, first impression didn't quite make the cut, we were feeling uncomfortable and intimidated. Several negative thoughts were running in my mind, "did we just walked into a bad restaurant?&quo

Self-heating can of latte?

Image
Mom bought something "rather interesting" for me the other day, thought that I might want to try. Yes, a can of self-heating latte! I've heard of self-heating instant noodle bowl from Japan and also self-heating teriyaki chicken but never tried it myself. I'm not sure how popular this self-heating latte is, obviously I've never heard of it as I thought it is way to easy to get a cup of coffee anywhere in the world, be it a good cup of espresso or a rather ordinary cup of filtered coffee or maybe just get a can of nescafe from the vending machinece near you, but you get the caffeine kick whenever you want it anyway. So, on this rather ordinary day, I finally took up the courage and try it! Read through the complicated sounding instruction given (not at all complicated anyway, just sounds intimidated), read through the warning sign given, it sounds dangerous to me to activate the can.  Ok, so frist, turn upside down, remove seal on base of can and press acti

Happy Mid Autumn Festival

Image
It was Mid Autumn Festival/ Mooncake Festival/ Lantern Festival for every Chinese out there. It is also a day to reunite with your family; to chat, eat, drink tea and play lantern under the perfectly round moon. I have lost count on how many Mid Autumn Festival I've missed celebrating with my family. This year was one exception, I got to eat mooncake, drink tea, play lanterns and candles with my family. You'll never feel too old playing lanterns. When we were a lot younger back then, we used to play with candles, making it into a fire stove and started cooking with dried leaves where we picked up at the garden. Well, now that we have all grown up, we don't play with fire anymore, but focus more on decorating the garden with colourful paper lanterns. Mooncake - Pandan with double egg yolk Eating mooncake is a must-do in this festival, you wouldn't feel completed if you didn't have one. We used to fight with each other for the biggest portion with biggest
