Back to one of our favourites ~ Tziki Bar at Forest Glen. Revamped their menu. Even better than it was. The lamb ribs now come with a pineapple and pomegranate glaze. I thought this wouldn’t be as good as the lemon sauce they used to come with. But it is better. Also now have mussels with a tomato and brandy cream sauce. Yum.
Also had the roasted cauliflower salad. As good as ever. So to the pictures.


A bit late with the mussels but there was one left.

Small cafe in Malacca. Chicken Rice Balls and a Fried Chicken. With 2 lime juices about A$15.

Looks delicious @OZDUCK
When I was in Port Dickson and Malacca 48 years ago, the food wasn't that good but then again, as students, our budget was pretty lean!

We only had a simple meal in a Foodcourt last night that was nothing special. Todays was fine but not special
Not helped by the arrival of a noisy Chinese tour group into the small cafe halfway through our meal.

I have just had a swim at the hotel and am now lying down munching on some delicious handmade nonya pineapple tarts.

Agreed, can’t remember too much from 1978 in Malacca, I think I ate on the beach, I know I stayed in the Youth Hostel (a proper YHA) where I had my first experience with a Mandi! Good times.

My memory from ‘73 is cloudy! I blame the drugs.

That beach at Malacca would be about 2km inland these days. There has been massive sand reclamation here.

One of the best chendol I have ever had. There pineapple tarts are also very nice

Beautiful.
BTW, nothing so hollow as a perfectly clean BBQ grill

Today a Korean BBQ for lunch- Jango at Kawana Shopping Centre. Was pretty good. The pork belly was a bit tough but the pork jowl was good. The beef was a good standard but the Japanese BBQ in Bondi had better beef.
The accompanying dishes though better here. I like kimchi and the pickles were excellent. Also nice slaw and corn in a cheese sauce.
So the pictures.











Mrsdrron had a glass of wine and I a Korean beer.


A lot of food for us. Cost $103.

Decided to give home made San Choy Bow a whirl.

Passable, but slightly overcooked.
