Bostons Espresso - Wollongong CBD










Anna had signalled to me how she and her other half and enjoyed this cafe on a weekend.  Tucked away on the ground floor of a modern building, it is spacious, has a few library shelf books and even alternative forms of seating for guests.   The staff are friendly.  Perhaps the menu and feel is Mediterranean in a modern Australian setting. I see feta, haloumi, yoghurt, aoili, dukkah, fennel, avocado and cheddar.  I see a range of customers, from the young to the elderly, not dominated by a set demographic.   Sited between the office crowds and a light industrial area, the cafe reaps the benefits.







My choice of pulled pork sandwich was rather wholesome and of a generous serve, especially in relation to the pricing.  I am looking forward to try the slow cooked lamb sandwich for AUD9.  There is another sandwich with smashed chat potatoes, cranberry sauce, egg and baby spinach. Down to earth, they also offer soups, salads and sides of grilled chicken or smoked salmon.

The coffee?  I only had a quick drop by and a rushed cuppa. It was good enough to want to come back at another opportune time.





The pulled pork roll for AUD 9 - July 2015.

Aunty Gaik Lian's - Straits Chinese, Georgetown, Penang

Image
A simple but appetising egg omelette as starters. Gulai Ikan Tumis or sour and spicy fish curry. The previous long standing branch of jewellers B.P De Silva, almost at the corner of Bishop and Beach streets in the old quarter of Georgetown, has a few months ago been transformed into a hub of Straits Chinese cuisine. Straddling two shop lots, located in an evening quiet location but near to the banking district on  business days, Aunty Gaik Lian's provides a refreshing change to the Nyonya food landscape on Penang island.  I have always found that the best Straits Chinese food is found in homes in Penang, like what my Mum dishes out, and it has been exasperating to be really satisfied with commercial outlets in this cuisine.  The Penang variation of such Peranakan food tends to be more influenced by ingredients and cooking styles from Thailand and the Malayan peninsular , when compared to the Malacca version (with more of stronger Indonesian influences and the use of the

85 Degrees Bakery Cafe Hurstville NSW

Image
There are several outlets of this bakery cafe for several years now in Australia.  Did they coem from the USA? Each franchised outlet is in a busy area, often in suburbs so-called by a diverse Asian demographic.   The one in Hurstville is rather roomy and lots of baked stuff on its shelves.   The base of Sydney operations is in Chester Hill, a suburb south-west of the Sydney city centre. Some of the cake creations would be viewed as rather leaning on the East Asian dimension  - Strawberry Angel (with chocolate base and top) and Mango Cheese ( with yoghurt).   However, to counter this perspective, there are also Death by Chocolate, US Cheesecake, Coffee Brulee and Blueberry Marble options.     The pastries are definitely filled with ingredients more suited to perhaps  Anime loving fans and non-mainstream cultures - for example, garlic, pork, tuna, green tea, red bean, shallots, pork floss, coconut, Hokkaido butter cream and Boroh or pineapple buns.    Sung
