    @drkknits Haha, that’s classic American university town Chinese food. I think it’s like chicken tikka masala, in that it’s totally invented.


    @drkknits We ordered it a LOT back at ND. But I don’t think I’ve ever seen it on a menu outside the US! Like chop suey. 🙂


    @drkknits Indian harder to come by. I’d never had it til I went to the UK…


    @drkknits I think it’s going to depend a lot where the immigrants settled. West Coast would have a lot more, I suspect.


    @imdominating Yes! And sometimes it causes people to miss birthdays. So happy belated birthday. I really liked your FB photos! 🙂


    RT @Ben_Shute: Coldplay asks people to join video shoot in Sydney. http://t.co/8cGPX6OyvS – then people remember they are the most BORING. …


    RT @clepetit: Today will really suck. I know because I accidentally left my fitbit at home. // Self: HERE’S YOUR CHANCE. MUST WALK TODAY.


    Another full day of off-site training. Really not feeling it. (@ Karstens) http://t.co/arYkSCcQJd

     Happy Father's Day, Dad! (The fact that I had just turned 13 explains the facial expression, I think.)

    Finally watched first episode of Silicon Valley. Wow. Don’t think I laughed once. How could a Mike Judge ripoff of Microserfs be so boring?


    Just your average Sunday in Chippo, dismembering multiple computers. http://t.co/ZVO0JtwYzF

    @jannism Coincidentally, I just bought a jar of rose harissa yesterday.


    @TheOpalUser But it doesn’t include the cost of the car or the parking? Sensational headline, but a bit silly.

    I’m not gonna lie – the return of Shireen Basha today is the only thing making Monday morning bearable!

  • Banh Mi Thit in Sydney, Vietnamese | Noodlies Sydney food blog

    Banh Mi Thit in Sydney, Vietnamese | Noodlies Sydney food blog – Wow, a map and price comparison of every shop selling Vietnamese pork rolls in the Sydney CBD. (Well, mostly. They do list some in Chippo and Ultimo.) I was a big fan of Chop Chop back when I worked at M&S on York Street. Didn’t realise they were at the top end of the price scale though!

  • Coleslaw

    My Dad informed us after the funeral last weekend that when he goes, he wants the traditional family feast to consist of pulled pork, bratwurst, sweet tea, and lots and lots of coleslaw. He loves coleslaw. Coincidentally enough, Serious Eats are featuring coleslaw recipes this week:

    There you go, Dad. 🙂
