Category: Finding Myself – Adelaide

Eggless, it’s really eggless! The desserts they serve got no egg in them at all! If you’re a vegan or prefer gluten free desserts, they have it. Impressive. The crowd was even more impressive! It’s located at 162 Goodwood Road, just next to the churchand opposite the cinema

Went there last Saturday right after our Korean dinner. Too bad my camera ran out of battery at Burnside so I ended using my phone. That explains such colour.

It opened at 8pm but we reached there about half hour before 8pm to be the first in line! Scary I tell you, not long later more and more people came and the queue got sooooo looooong. It’s not even open for business yet and people already queuing up. I heard if you come after 8pm, you might have to wait at least 45 minutes to get a table. That’s how good their business is.

Left: Black Sticky Rice (AUD5.50), aromatic purplely black glutinous rice served warm with coconut cream, very yummy, haven’t eat this for soooo looong, for years! Finally had it in Adelaide *LOL* What an irony. I can always make this myself at home, just need to buy the rice at Chinatown. Soon I’ll make it ;p

Right: Mango & Candied Orange Creme Brulee (AUD8), fragrant mango custard with tangy candied orange pieces, a tiniest hint of ginger & crunchy torched sugar crust. It is quite sweet but that’s what dessert is all about, sweet ;p

Left: Vietnamese Banana Coconut Bread Pudding (AUD8), a beautifully moist Vietnamese style baked banana & coconut bread pudding (aka Banh Chuoi Nuong), accompanied with caramel sauce & vanilla ice cream (soy/dairy). A great East West fusion! Quite sweet for my liking but can taste that it’s a good pudding.

Right: Cendol (AUD7.50 I think… Can’t see the price clearly in my photo), eaten all over south east asia, this summery dessert is a yummy combo of red beans, pandan bean jelly (cendol), palm sugar, coconut milk & shaved ice. I don’t like the cendol though… it’s tough -.-” Also, I think it’s best for them to use a bowl than using a glass like this. It’s difficult to eat.

Overall, it’s a nice plce, I like the interior. The price is quite reasonable for a place that cater desserts for people with special diet (vegan and lacto-vegetarian). No wonder it’s so popular.

Had my very first Korean food in Adelaide last week. I will be eating Korean food daily in about 2 weeks time! Excited but worry at the same time because I need to go to the airport at 4am on my own with all the luggage and I have limited knowledge of Korean language. Trying to learn it but too occupied with work.

Anyway, let’s talk about this place. I thought it’s a Japanese restaurant when I saw the name but it’s not. It’s located at Shop 7/475 Payneham Road, Felixstow. Also, was told that you can’t get sushi here unless you pre-order. Hmm… The name sure is confusing enough.

Left: Cutlery.
Right: Soontofu (AUD10.90), soft tofu marinara hotpot.

Left: Pork rib soup, I don’t know the price and the actual name.
Right: Garlic Chicken (AUD15), fried chicken with onion, garlic, and nuts.

The 3 side dishes consist of bean sprout, potato, and kimchi. While the big one is kimchi with beef (I think… I can’t find them in the menu).

Love them all! Each of us only paid AUD17 for all these, there’s 4 of us. In fact, these are a bit too much for 4 of us but we managed to cleared everything on the table. We’re all considered medium-big eater and we were stuffed. So if you’re small eater, these are definitely too much.

Overall, the place is highly recommended and the price is not bad at all just that it’s quite far from the city(at least for me, unless I have a car).
