Crackling pork Vietnamese roll. Rozelle Bakehouse.

Celebrating somebody's birthday at Kimusabi on Enmore Road, Newtown.
P.S - all plant-based.

salmon sashimi: yuzu crème, citrus ponzu, crispy chilli oil, fragrant herbs


open fire chargrilled corn: miso and ginger sosu, togarashi, smoked hemp chizu


parsnip korokke: miso butter, shishito pepper, parsnip puree


There were more dishes after that, but I forgot to get them on film. Perhaps a sign of how much these were enjoyed - would definitely revisit.

After lunch - deliberately left room for dessert - a couple of doors down is Hakiki Turkish Ice Cream.

I had a "single scoop" (really 2 smaller scoops to accommodate 2 flavours): today was the day for Banana Cinnamon and Melon Feta.

Not quite the same as what I’m missing at the QCC with @QF WP .

After more than a week of great Japanese food: rice, dumplings, ramen and so on, today it was comfort food.

Burger for me. Parmy for Miss H.

I’m confused, menu says Fennel Roasted Carrots - did Bugs Bunny pinch a few ? And a beef cubed roll, when I originally saw the menu I was wondering how you roll a cube?
It enough to drive a man to drink….

My Bangkok special Khao Soi. Nice and spicy.

Who's to say it was my companion(s)?

Tonight a dip I had never had before - Muhammara which has its origins in Aleppo, Syria. I really liked it. Based on red capsicum, walnuts and molasses.

I saw this dip on a menu today and hadn’t heard of it before. Good to hear that it is recommended.

So happy birthday to you @RB001

Thanks, @Flyfrequently
Actual day was the week before last, when I celebrated by going AKL-SYD-MEL-OOL departing at 6am!
To stay loosely on topic, my "cake" could theoretically be my welcome chocolates at thePullman AKL. (FYI for others - they provide a slip of paper listing allergens, but it appears to be non-specific to the individual treats.)
