Hawker Boys – Melbourne – a Vietnamese joint in popular Hardware Lane
One lunch time, I wandered from restaurant to restaurant in busy Hardware Lane looking for a restaurant for a quick lunch. I was disappointed that some popular joints like Lulu’s Char Kway Teo and Miznon were booked out and simply closed, but luckily I could get a seat at Hawker Boys but sitting outside. Hawker […]
Street Pho – Noble Park, Melbourne – seems to be the most popular restaurant in Noble Park full stop
It can be hard to get a seat at Street Pho. It seems to be buzzing on Fridays to Sundays. Other restaurants on Douglas Street don’t seem to get the same fanfare. For Vietnamese cuisine, Street Pho does a good job with its pho and noodle soups plus its fried noodles and rice dishes. The […]
Torrisong – Carlton, Melbourne – specializing in Japanese teishoku meal sets where you get a smorgasbord of hors d’oeuvres
Torrisong opened in 2018 as a different kind of Japanese restaurant offering ramen and other small plates.

Nowadays, it seems that Torrisong exclusively serves teishoku and doesn’t serve ramen or other main dishes anymore. I think that’s […]

To distinguish one from the other, each restaurant has their own stake in a particular field. At Song Huong – Bun Bo Hue […]
Hotel Clover 7 – Singapore – an affordable hotel in Chinatown with incredibly tiny rooms
Land in Singapore comes at premium and so the typical hotel rooms reflects this reality. While there are some hotels that offer larger floor space, they come at a significant cost that will make any cost conscious traveler wary. Singapore offers several types of hotels aimed at the ends of each spectrum and so Hotel […]
Everything Everywhere All at Once – the role destined for Michelle Yeoh with a story that is way more interesting than the typical Marvel film
Between Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and a non-Marvel film Everything Everywhere All at Once, I think I’d pick Everything Everywhere All at Once hands down because of its incredibly action choreography, emphatic characters and for being a film with a true heart. The star of the film Michelle Yeoh manages to grace […]
