Hot Pot

A couple of weeks ago, before I came to Geelong, a few of us had hot pot at my place.

There were seven of us, and we had four pots of these.

We could not finish the fourth pot.

Mercadante Woodfired Pizzeria

Considering I've been in Melbourne for 3 years plus already, and have been living not that far off from Lygon Street, and now living much much more closer to Lygon (only one street away), its a shame that I've only been to 2 of multitude of Italian restaurants there (Corretto's and Villa Romana), Vina Bar and Lambs notwithstanding. So, I've decided to embark on The Quest to Sample More Italian (or Non-Asian) Restaurants on Lygon Street.

And the first one on my hit list is Mercadante Woodfired Pizzeria.

And how was the food, you might ask? Well, nothing was really spectacular. What you see here is what I got then. Perhaps I ordered the wrong things. Reviews on the net seem to be very highly in favour of this restaurant.

Oh wells, I'll have to try it again some other day.

Breakfast

Hello.

The other day Jian Ming made breakfast.

The breakfast consisted of scrambled eggs, mushroom, tomatoes, and toast.

And maybe some salmon with avocado.

The breakfast was very good.

And it looked very pretty as well.

Good bye.

So.

A week and a half into staying at an apartment, and I must say that I'm actually enjoying it.

Well, apart from the fact that I have no internet and have absolutely nothing to do at night. And any other time that I'm at home.

But cooking's alright. Some attempts turned out well, one was a disaster, others were so-so. Managed to take a few pictures of what I've attempted so far, but I just can't access internet on my own laptop, thus, there won't be any pictures here.

And the location of the place is just awesome. A walk to Lygon Street only takes 10 seconds. Well, maybe more. But extremely good for times when I'm feeling lonely and just want to be around people. Even though its people I don't know.

Oh well, its less than a week before I get back.
