Australia’s Pizza House

Posted on By sweet surrender 12 Comments on Australia’s Pizza House

My first day in Adelaide, I went out to hunt for dinner, it was already 7pm but it was still so bright.

I ended up at Australia’s Pizza House not far down the street of where I’m staying.


Ordered a large Margherita pizza(AUD5.40), the cheapest I could find. Not too thick not too thin base with double cheese and herbs. It took me 4 meals(2 dinners, 1 breakfast, and 1 lunch) to finish it! ;p Each time 2 slices only and I’m full. I couldn’t believe I ate so little, I guess it was due to the tiredness the first 2 days.

Gonna try other type next time, the pizza there is quite reasonably priced. Can even last me for days, so it’s quite economical ;p

Adelaide, Here I am

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Adelaide, Here I am

Finally… Touched down ar Adelaide International Airport. The airport isn’t as grand as what we have in Kuching or KL.

A taxi driver hired by the uni was waiting holding the paper with my name. When I walked out of the airport, it’s not cold at all. I was feeling hot so I took off my windbreaker. In fact, my body was heating up and aching. I thought I might fall sick soon. Even in the plane, it wasn’t cold at all, I only felt inside of my body heating up.


Left: On the way to where I’m going to stay for at least a year.

Right: TADA! Here you go. A friend had moved in earlier, so everything was kind of complete except stuffs for my room.


It’s a two-bedroom apartment. It’s furnished except kitchen utensils and beddings.


My room, still empty. Will show you again in other post which is no longer empty ;p

Since I was feeling not so well, after I covered the mattress with the bedsheet I brought from home, took a shower, I went to sleep. Good thing I had a fleece blanket that I brought along from home too. My body was heated up, head was so heavy and feeling dizzy, I didn’t feel cold so use it as my pillow. Managed to sleep for about 1 hour plus.

My housemate prepare lunch for me. Then I headed out to hunt for pillow. Luckily there’s a shop having closing down sale and I managed to get a pillow(AUD12), a quilt(AUD30), a plate(AUD1), and a mug(AUD1) with very cheap price. (Well… I found out IKEA is selling plate for 50 cents yesterday!) So, really saved a lot. I almost couldn’t get a pillow as I couldn’t find it anywhere, they also told me no more stock. Luckily I didn’t give up, I saw one uncle holding a pillow, I asked him where he found it, he said somewhere. *LOL* I looked hard enough and found it under a pile of throw pillows! I tried looking for another one but no more… Phew… Else gonna buy expensive pillows. Good thing I bought a quilt too, really need it,the fleece blanket isn’t enough. Wonder how about winter. I’m now sleeping with the fleece blanket and the quilt to keep warm.


The apartment building is locating in Adelaide’s red light district *LOL* Rows of nightspots including some strip clubs! It’s sure very happening at night ;p I’m gonna stay in my apartment at night for sure. Don’t dare to go out unless have bodyguard *LOL*

Gonna blog about the dinner in the next post.

On the Way to Adelaide

Boarded the flight at 4pm+.

Left: I check-in not only from Kuching to KL but also asked them to help me check in for the flight from KL-Adelaide.

Right: Food of course, I didn’t expect lunch or consider that as dinner? Hahaha…


I had sweet and sour fish rice. It’s tasteless -.-” Only tasted a bit of sour. Sorry for the blurness, hehehe… The flight was full and the aunty next to me was looking at me as if never see people take photo of food ;p So I quickly took the picture and ate.


Flight to Adelaide was supposed to be about 9.20pm but it was delayed for roughly an hour. Had my dinner at Burger King. Funny thing was that, while I was in the boarding hall, I kept thinking I’m in Kuching even though it’s so much difference from what we have in Kuching. My mind kept saying that I’m still in Kuching *LOL*

Apparently I’m the first to check-in and I got the seat at the very last row of the B777-200, aisle seat. Cool! I thought the seat could not recline but it could, so that’s good. Even the overhead compartment only hold my bag. What’s more, I’m so near to the toilet too. So convenient. I kept asking water from the crew as I want to keep myself hydrated. I could keep going to the toilet without disturbing anyone.

Sitting next to me was an English uncle. He and his wife bought 3 seats but there’s only 2 of them. When sleep, he lay down to sleep. So, 4 seats with 3 ppl. How nice. The two seats next to me were reserved for the crews.

Took off, and had salted peanut, it wasn’t nice at all unlike what I usually had from my sis’ trip back home. Hmm…

Then at 12am, breakfast! WOW! Before touch down, another round of simple breakfast(yogurt and chocolate muffin).


The view was so nice but too bad I’m not sitting at the window seat. In fact I could just go to the seats reserved for the crew to take the photo but that window was so dirty -.-” So I asked another passenger who seated at the window seat to help me take the photo. Even the English uncle wanted a photo of the view too so I helped him to ask that passenger to help take another one.

The view was breathtaking. Just too bad… If I’m sitting at the window seat, I would make sure to have many good shoots of it. Basically the camera was focusing on the dead insects ;p

Next up… My first day in Adelaide.

Hahaha… I know many of you are still waiting for my post about Adelaide, soon… This is the final post of Kuching food post.

Before hopping on the plane to KL for connecting flights to Adelaide, my parents and I had lunch at the airport.

Middle: ABC if I’m not mistaken. It’s RM6.

Right: Honey Roasted Chicken. I didn’t expect the rice was a lot, judging from the look, I thougth the “pot” was quite shallow but who knows… It’s pretty deep. Taste wise, the chicken was ok for me but the rice was a bit dry.


Oh dear… I don’t remember the name of these noodles ;p

So, that’s the end of my Kuching food post.

My final last 2 Kuching food post.


Left: Went out for lunch with my parents last week. I kept hearing them talking about this place as they went there quite often. Dad always bought the curry puffs and yam puffs there. The best I had. It’s located at Ang Cheng Ho Lorong 1.

Right: This is the noodle I kept hear my mom talking about, RM7 noodle! Hen Hua Mee Big Prawn (RM7), very colourful and nicely arranged. As for the taste, to me it’s really nothing, just tasted as it should be.


Left: Tomato Kueh Tiaw(RM4.50), that should be the price, couldn’t see the picture of the price clearly ;p

Right: Claypot Chicken Leg/Pork Soup, don’t remember the price. Extremely peppery, I think it’s more like Singapore Bak Kut Teh since the soup base for Bak Kut Teh in Singapore is pepper soup.

One more to go…
