Matt Zzang/Noggi Foodout

hello :)
So i was finishing my previous blog post and i realised that it was pretty much all snacking at Strathfield, which doesn't cover lunch, SO I WILL BE COVERING LUNCHING AT STRATHFIELD. ahahahs yeah, plus i'm pretty bored. 

So Strathfield is filled with many korean restaurants on, on my first time going to eat with kim, i really wasn't sure of where to go eat because all the places looks delicious and they were all very affordable. 

So Kim and I went to Matt Zzang, this restaurant on the main street. And so, in the halfies week, when me, Kim, Jasmine and Chenzo went to go eat, we went back to Matt Zzang because it was pretty good :) So we ordered a beef dish for $12 and dukkboki for $6 - plus an extra bowl of rice for $2- (something like that i forgot).

Side dishes

  For the first time comers, you'd think they'd only give you what you order because that's what all other restaurants are like, but it's totally different. They brought out side dishes!! There was Kimchi, salted seaweed- which tastes really good even though it sounds ..pretty exotic ahahas, korean jelly, and pickled beansprout.

Salted Seaweed- sorry for the bad photog.

 And then the beef dish came out :)

Beef Dish

 The beef dish is pretty big for a 4 people crew - and it was pretty shocking how we saw one lady eating something the same size by herself- but the sauce of the dish was absolutely nice. sososososos noice. This though, is spiceless because chenzo isn't chilli tolerant. If you guys are spice tolerant though, i really recommend the spicy pork dish (for the same price of $12 as well). it honestly is delicious and very worth the price :)

We also bought dukkboki at the store as well. It was very nice and there were tofu pieces in there but i wouldn't recommend you guys buy it at this place if you're just looking for good dukkboki because you can get better ones at the street vendors. But it was okay :)

We walked around for a little bit and went to Noggi to eat. People usually say 'oh but Moochi is pretty good why don't you guys go there?". 
Personally, I don't really like Moochi. It has pretty shitty service and, although it's a very colourful place, there are so little seats and it's pretty cramped. Plus, they have a student deal where they'd give you free toppings if you're a student but you'd have to show your ID card. When me and Kim went there as newbies, we didn't show a card - yet it was obvious we were students because we were wearing uniform- yet they charged as the normal price. The only good stuff that is there is the pomegranate flavoured yoghurt, which is pretty good. 

Noggi might look plain from afar but it has loads of good seating - it expands through to the back and also has heating for cold days- and the service is wonderful :) the staff is very friendly and patient with the ordering and they always smalltalk me when i go there which is very cute - plus there's this cute looking guy there as well ahahahs-. They give free toppings for students just by going there WEARING UNIFORM and their biscotti flavoured yoghurt is extremely nice. SO yeah, choose whichever fits you but i prefer Noggi more.

The big size we got (which is not the biggest cause there's a bigger one) comes with 5 toppings and you can get all 4 flavours of yoghurt. For toppings we chose strawberry, oreo, watermelon, marshmallows, and mochi. MOCHI IS BY FAR ONE OF THE BEST TOPPINGS SO DO TRY IT OUT BECAUSE YOU'D MISS OUT. 

So yeah, if you guys want to try Korean food and frozen yoghurt, do go eat at Strathfield :)

IM OUTTIE :)

Frolicking Around :)

I haven't been food blogging for a while mostly cause my posts have been all bitchrant posts and stuff and cause most of my food stuff are posted on instagram :) . but yeah, im going to try and do many of those during the holidays because i'll be going around a lot. Uhm, just clarifying, i guess most of my food posts won't be all fancy and snazzy because i don't have loads of money to go eat and expensive places all the time. so i guess most of my food adventures are pretty urban and 'streetfoody'- which is good if you want to go so many places and try good things with worthit prices :DD

Uhm so, on the wednesday strike, me and a couple of friends went to Strathfield for Noggi but we kinda spent our money on other stuff ahahhas. Pretty much the whole trip we tried to use as little money as possible while finding good snacks. The first place we went to was for dukkboki; spicy korean rice cakes. You could buy them on a stick, which is usually fried for a bit and them chillied, but we bought a box full of them for $7 at this korean shop next to the pork roll shop. 

RICE CAKES YEARH

 Honestly it's not that spicy but it's a pretty good price. Outside Strathfield station is also a 'streetfood' shop which sells all kinds of Korean hot snacks.They also sell dukkbokki sticks with sausage for $3 a stick and it's quite nice there. Sarah bought a box of fried chicken ahahas. Don't try it, it tastes so bad and dry and it doesnt look like chicken ahahas. 

 But if you're looking for snacks in the plaza, there's so many good places to go get some :) The Asian grocers have pretty nice icecreams which are only $1 each so if you'd like to try korean icecream- which is both pretty and nice- i recommend you try these. 

The onesies here are green tea icecream and watermelon icecream, which are $2 altogether, and it's honestly sosososos nice. The black 'seeds' in the watermelon icecream are sesame seeds and it might sound weird but it's sososos good. the green tea icecream is so creamy and so noice omgahs.


nts: also try 'melon bar' which is a melon iceblock and the coffee icecream, which could be broken in two so you could share with a mate :)


We also went to buy hot fried snacks, and there was this asian store close next to the checkout place of Woolworths (next to Bakers Delight). The friend stuff was pretty okay but they had the best dukkboki on a stick so far in Strathfield (that i've tried ahahs) they had chicken pieces on there and it was so nice and the dukkboki wasn't as spicy but it depends on who eats it. 

So yeah, YAY FOR FINALLY BLOGGING A FOOD JOURNEY :)


I'm outtie :)
