Do we have any Jessica Jones fans in the house? No? God damn it, guys. Stop focussing on the chill part of Netflix and Chill and spend some time on the Netflix part. I’ll do my best to not spoil anything but one of the characters on the show talks about a foreign emotion called […]
If you really want to, you’ll be able to find something to complain about. I’m getting fat. I’ve lost all of my friends. My name rhymes with male genitalia. I’m not making enough money. It’s really easy to complain, but it’s a lot harder to make things better. Figuring out how to stop being a […]
Growing up, I didn’t have a lot of non-Chinese food. I lived on yum cha, noodles, stir fries and claypots with smells that made my Greek neighbours wrinkle their noses. I also had a lot of Chinese BBQ with sides of rice and bowls of “I wish you would seriously consider being a doctor” soup. […]
It’s the remix to Edition. Hot and fresh out the kitchen iFat rolling that blog got every man in here wishin’ Sippin on a cafe latte, I’m like so what I’m up. It’s the freaking weekend baby, I’m about too have me some fun: Edition Coffee Roasters in Darlinghurst has been sitting on my list […]
Confession: I once thought that Transformers was the greatest movie ever made. I emerged from the Megan Fox/explosion fest thinking I had just witnessed cinematic history. I was young, but I wasn’t THAT young. My only defense is this, there were robots duking it out, and Megan Fox is a god damned fox and my […]
Have you ever met someone who makes you feel like they’ve cast a spell upon you? You have? Well, I haven’t and I don’t plan to. I rather they cast a bucket of Belle’s on me. After single-handedly keeping Barangaroo from resembling a zombie wasteland with their pop-up, Belle’s Hot Chicken have now opened a full blown […]
Give it t-ume, baby. You have to admit I’m pretty fly for a blog guy. You know what else is pretty fly? The newly revamped Bar Ume in Surry Hills. (Disclaimer: I was invited to sample Bar Ume’s brand new menu however opinions remain my own). Chef/owner Kerby Craig already has extensive experience with burgers […]
I come from the streets. Ok, the streets were lined with large, leafy trees and white picket fences but still. I’m not claiming to be hood (the most hood thing about me is my large collection of zip-up hoodies), but I did come from a street of some sort. Where was I going with this? […]
Shopping centre food is notoriously bad. You either have to settle for fast food that isn’t served very fast, unauthentic Chinese food that you can’t find in China or butter chicken without any butter in it. Look what smuggled into Broadway Shopping Centre whilst everyone was watching the Olympics. I’d like to introduce Dutch Smuggler […]
If you have a look at what Hollywood is coming up with outside of comic book movies, you’ll be thoroughly disappointed. We have remakes, prequels, sequels, sequels to prequels and movies trying to convince us that Kevin James is a movie star. We also have weird combinations coming up like Godzilla vs King Kong….yes, it […]
My parents and I have been through Hell and high waters together. But I’m not going to get into that, I’m going to talk about the hardest conversation I’ve ever had with them. I’m going to talk about the time I tried to explain the economic concept of ‘sunk cost.’ For those that don’t know, […]
Have I ever told you guys about the first time I tried to cook? My mother was in the process of preparing dinner and I nominated myself as her sous chef. By that point in time, I had seen enough cooking shows to build up a false sense of confidence in my budding skills as […]
