chatswood day out part 1: foodie guide

Since i was meant to go to fishies market but it's been postponed to the point where it was cancelled, my mum and tina went on a trip to chatswood, though I really wanted to go to Town Hall because there would be the Sydney Festival in the city and that would be loads of fun :)

Though it took a while to get there - 2 hours travel minumum there and back- we arrived in style hahahas. But since this is a foodies guide, i won't be blogging about my lovely haul of that day, CAUSE ITS ALL ABOUT FOOOOOD :DD - and creds to Tina who took the loveliest food porn ;)

So we ate lunch at this lovely Korean BBQ Buffet at Mandarin Centre and it was quite cheap, $10 for an adult. The atmosphere of the store was pretty good and it had the lovelies homely style to it :) The variety of food was okay, though compared to the buffet at Bankstown RSL it was quite small. But I guess that's what you get with $10, and it was worth the buck.

The food area plus a tad more.

So anyhoo, this was my first dish:

The food wasn't bad at all. There were noodles, honey pork, korean style omelettes, korean style stirfry. The kimchi was lovely and so seriously spicy but that's the whole point of kimchi.  There was no dukkboki though, so kudos to the korean buffet at chinatown :DD The miso soup was lovely though, there was nothing as nice tasting that I've tasted before - miso soup wise. We got some icecream to top it all up and it was all pretty good :)

The honey pork

The highlight of the experience though was definitely the honey pork. It was so absolutely yummy and the texture was sooooo good omgggaaaahahhhh. on my second round all i got was that a some korean fried rice and everything just kept gawking at my super small roll choked full of pork hahas.


Of course we had to shop all the food off and when it was about time to go home, we hit Meet Fresh. Meet Fresh is this superb Taiwanese dessert place at Chatswood..and you could also find in Chinatown as well. We bought the most expensive dessert which was Super Mango Crushed Ice Dessert and it was sooooo huge it was so fulling. A mostly when we were all thirstly and shit, it was a life saver hahas. Everyone just looked at their bowls and then looked at ours because they had to pay something like 5 for these small things and we spent 7 on something that looked twice the size hahas.

UGH DELICIMOSSSOOO

The mountain was made out of a mountain of ice and covering it is bits of smoothed mangoes, chunked mangoes, mango syrup and the top is vanilla icecream. OMGG it was delicious. WORTH THE BUCK. 


im outtie to go to part 2 :)
