12 Pin Oak Crescent, Flemington
I finally had a chance to eat at the newly renovated Laksa King restaurant
Firstly, the place has come a long way from it’s small beginnings in that arcade at 320 Racecourse Road. Laksa King now have their own fully furnished restaurant , and are now fully licensed to serve alcohol as well.
Despite the new facelift, is the good ol’ Laksa King the same one we love and remember?
On my recent honeymoon to Europe, I stopped by in the rather sleepy city of Vienna where I managed to sample one of the country’s great food icons, the apple strudel.
Anyone going to Schönbrunn Palace should stop by the Cafe and Restaurant Residenz, where they can try the awesome apple strudel there. I’ve never really liked apple desserts before, but one mouthful of this and you will be totally sold.
The great thing about this place is that they sort of have a package thing going on with the Palace, where you can get a ticket to the palace, a slice of strudel as well attend one of their Strudel shows, where they actually show you how they make it, as well as give you a recipe to take home and try.
Well, guess what I did when I got home.

A short while back Coconut House on Elizabeth Street underwent some renovations. Shortly after it reopened, Little Coconut House appeared as well, just 3 doors down! So what’s the difference?

So, I finally had an opportunity to dine at one of Masterchef judges, Gary Mehigan’s restaurants.

This might not be the first place you’d think you’d find a Malaysian restaurant, but it’s actually one of the best I’ve had in the CBD, not to mention cheap!
If you’ve ever been to Malaysia, Coconut House is almost like one of those makan places you’d go eat at, from the decor down to the food.
Welcome to the king of dumpling restaurants.
HuTong Dumpling Bar

So it seems that there was actually a dumpling place in the city that I actually hadn’t tried yet. Upon learning of this I quickly rushed out in order to rectify this.
