This time, it’s lunch, at yet another Surry Hills hotspot, Nomad.

Good Food Month is always a great time of year to explore new cuisines and cultures, but at The Malaya this year, I’m looking into something that is a little closer to home, something that I grew up with.
Peranakan – or Nonya – cuisine is borne of Chinese and Malay influences, much like the culture. They are notoriously laborious and involved, but also yielded insanely delicious and aromatic results.
With Sydney Craft Beer Week 2014 done and dusted, the post-beer recovery regime of Berocca, Hydralyte, and handfuls of painkillers begins.
But on the positive side, if you’re reading this, you’ve probably also enjoyed the fruits of at least one of the many Sydney Craft Beer Week 2014 events. This memory, or lack thereof may aid in your recovery. As always, if symptoms persist, see your doctor.
Phew! We’ve had such a hot, sticky heat wave recently, and that can only mean one thing…
IT’S SUMMERTIME!!!

Eastwood has stealthily become a bit of a food hub, what with places like The Mandoo opening and offering amazing noodles and dumplings, and other stalwarts like Jean’s Chilli Chicken continuing to offer their brand of fire breathing late-night eats!
So when I heard that there was a new Japanese restaurant opening up down the road, I simply had to go and give it a go!

I’ve often said that I’m on a diet all year so that I am allowed to gorge during Good Food Month – and with events like the Night Noodle Markets and Asia Town, I think I’ve gotten my diet’s worth.
But it doesn’t mean I can’t still use the excuse to get some breakfast!! Cause a girl’s gotta eat right?

We all know that the Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Month has always been about the food – like the ever popular Night Noodle Markets, for example – but sometimes, in the midst of all the gorging, we forget that it’s also about the chefs!
And they were sure present at Asia Town – a celebration of Asian Street Food, seen through the eyes of amazing Australian chefs.

I get inspired by the strangest things, sometimes. This time it comes in a bottled condiment, called Yuzeful, which I found at the condiments table (every restaurant should have a condiments table) at Chanoma Cafe in the city. It tasted like a funky delicious Japanese Tabasco.
And in my kitchen, that means a new recipe!
