interesting signs..

It's been ages since I've stepped into dessert house. For those unacquainted with Melbourne's chinatown, dessert house is a Hong-Kong style eatery in one of the small shopping centres, mainly patronized by overseas students. As we walked out of the shopping centre, I took a double-take as we walked past this sign posted on the door of a small phone shop.

In English: "We have moved house.
Please go to the new store.
(Same shopping centre)"

Just in case you didn't know where the new shop was... the kind owners had a map drawn out as well...

... and if that wasn't enough...

for the topographically challenged

it's been a while since I've been this amused :)

canapes....

so we made canapes in class today...

pastry tarts with salmon roe, quail egg, sour cream, dill & coriander
pumpernickel topped with a lettuce chiffonade, smoked trout mousse and garnished with capers & chives

we also made stuffed mushrooms, spinach and fetta filo parcels, chicken satay, mini qaesadillas... which unfortunately were all eaten before i remembered i had a camera... haha. i have such great memory.

omelette with bacon, mushrooms, and gruyere cheese

this was just my dinner a few days ago. i was lazy to do anything else so i just cooked up an omelette. thought it looked pretty so i took a photo of it :)

now that i have a compact camera at my disposal.... i think i'm going to have more photos of stuff done in school. provided i remember to bring it for practicals... haha. i will try my best!
