Zowa

First meal with Man (Thai friend who finished cuisine from LCB, Thailand and came here to do Cert4) We were very hungry so I took him to Zowa, World square.

Lots of seasoning...

I like the atmosphere here...pretty cute !

see !

I just know that Korean also serve Omurice...I thought it is Japanese...

There are special menu for lunch also.

Water..

Ready !

Man had the Omurice with grilled chicken & chilli sauce...

Rice was good, it was fried rice with their special recipe which I dunno...but the chilli sauce was weird...

Mine : Omurice with Hamburg and tomato sauce...

The beef was good, especially the sauce and mayonnaise...Ah..I like it !

Fancy menu outside...

Another interesting choice when you are hungry in the city ^ ^

Kura

Such a lonely night....I was cold and really hungry....give me some food please ! lol

Actually I am happier when I am hungry that full...because I can eat more ..haha

I walked to Haymarket to Kura...The small Japanese restaurant where I knew from Panda & cakes

There are only 14 seats here....

The meal served with hot miso soup...

I chose just normal Chicken Tonkatsudon...(I dunno they serve pork or not)

The chicken was ok, the sauce was ok, the rice was ok...everything was just ok....but I was so satisfied ! Sometimes even it is not a best dish but it can make you happy...

ZoZo

A few first day I was here in Sydney...always dine alone...such a poor girl :D Then I found this Korean restaurant around World Square...

I were there at 4.30 pm...not really lunch or dinner time...

Rice came with many side dishes...I like Korean food because of this ...

Warm and soft rice...

My pork and tofu kimji soup...(forgot what is the name of this dish)

Not bad...A first few minute I ate...I thought they forgot to give me pork, maybe they gave me Tofu soup? But I didn't bother cuz felt that ..ok let's be healthy...then kept eating....I found out that lots of pork (belly part) were under the veggies....Healthy food become so fatty..haha

Bite Me

At first, we IP3 were thinking about having BBQ party at some parks or beaches...then finally we decided to go to eat at the restaurant in Bondi Beach instead...then "ok ..1.00 pm at Bondi beach"...That was what Seok told everyone.
You couldn't imagine how many people joined this party....3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah...Me, Seok and Sam :(

So we went to Bite me...I influenced them cuz wanna eat since I read from beverly
