I got a job !

I got a job ! I got a job ! I got a job ! I got a job ! I got a job ! I got a job ! I got a job ! I got a job ! I got a job ! I got a job ! I got a job ! I got a job ! I got a job !

And not only just get a job, now I am working at Bacco winebar pasticceria, Chifley tower since this Monday 24th Aug.. my god, unbelievable !




I was very happy when chef Brendan Dewar, executive chef, allowed me to go working in his kitchen.. And I am now even more extremely happy cuz chef Brendan, Andrew and Daniel (working for another chef who is having holiday) are amazing ! They are super great chefs, very nice and kind to me. Everytime they tell me to do something, they also teach me, just like I am in school again... so cool !

Today I feel that I made the right decision applied the job there...since I was thinking that Bacco looks too good so I was scared to apply.. The day I went there to send the resume, I was hiding under the escalator in front of the restaurant for 30 minutes ! haha , yes, exactly 30 mins standing.. cuz too nervous. Finally I started walking and told them that I was looking for a job ! Lucky got chance to talk to the chef..

The first 2 days I worked there, I was very happy. The third day, I love them ! I feel I am the luckiest person got chance working here.

please take a look about how cool the shop is at the SMH Good living .

Kawa

This cozy cafe is on Crown St. It looks small outside but got a lot more space inside than I thought.

You can even sit upstair.


Menu is writen down on the big black board.. dinner menu sounds good too.


Ayla (looks like she had an aura..haha)


We had breakfast at Sparkle cupcake (yes..at cupcake shop) still a bit full so we shared the beef pie


Beetroot, carrot and ginger juice for Ayla and skinny flat white for me.


Beautiful !


It tasted healthy.. mm..too healthy for me (not rich and not creamy, quite light) but Ayla like it.


I will come back :)

When Bean meets Panda !

After I found my twin stomach, Jenny, we took some times to meet each other. She works so near, just 1 block from my house so we met at the bus stop and took the bus to Din Tai Fung... (its last month..sorry I blog too late, Jenny..hehe)

I was very nervous before meeting her, it was just like I gonna meet superstar..haha, really. Cuz I was only saw her via the blog.. So excited when you got chance to meet the person who inspire you.. When I saw her waiting for me at the bus stop.. hehe...so cute lol.

It didn't take long time for waiting since we were okey to share the table with others.


Din Tai Fung Vegetarian Delight. I had this before and I like it.


Drunken Chicken


Xiao Long Bao (Steamed pork dumplings)


Spicy Pork & Vegie Dumplings with Noodles. I wanted to try this for long time. The sauce was nice and spicy ( it reminds me of Indo mee sauce..hahahaha) but I don't like the dumpling filling.


We had Steamed Taro Dumplings for dessert. Jenny said it would be better if there are some chunck of taro inside, give more texture. Yeah, I agree.


Panda & Beansprout.

It was very nice meeting you, actually I want to talk a lot more but as I said, I was very nervous...lol... I hope we got chance to meet each other again, thanks Jenny :)
