are spent catching up with friends family so hard to find the time to blog as much as i d like to that said i told myself that i had to share this mee siam recipe if i were to only blog one recipe this year this spicy and sour noodle dish is very popular in malaysia singapore and has always been one of my favourite noodles to eat i made it from scratch for the first time earlier this year when i had a bunch of my friends over and it was a huge hit i was really happy with the flavours normally i am quite critical of my own thinking but i thought this was really delicious to eat if i do say so myself the nostalgia may of eating this again after so many years may have played a part in the enjoyment of it too anyway i sincerely apologise for the lack of updates but hopefully this recipe makes up for it it s definitely a winner for me so i hope you try and enjoy it too mee siam recipe adapted from this recipe by fong s kitchen journal click here to print the recipe ingredients 400g

2016 london 2015 2016 aubaine hyde park a really pleasant cafe to have our morning breakfast before a day of exploration as it is located right across the road from kensington gardens i loved the ambience of the place and yes food was simple but delightful located google map location here kensington gardens google map location here the orangery kensington gardens one of the things that i really really wanted to do when i was in london especially since it was my first time there was to go to a traditional high tea we only had time that week for one high tea so i was doing a lot of research online for high tea recommendations at first i was quite keen on having our one high tea at the ritz for novelty s sake but because they had a strict dress code there it made it quite inconvenient for us then a friend of mum who has always had an appreciation of the finer things recommended the orangery to us it was perfect everything we were hoping for and more for me the setting and ambience was just as important as the food tea selection it was nestled in the middle of kensington gardens and i really enjoyed the historic grandeur of the building itself we felt like we were having tea from a page in history oh and yes the nibbles were really delicious they had a christmas special selection and i loved the roast turkey with stuffing and cranberry sandwich teas were really fantastic too all in all it ticked all our boxes and would definitely recommend this place to others too for a very typically english experience in london google map location here borough market we also met up with my really good friend jeff from melbourne who moved to the uk about a year ago knowing that we are quite the family of foodies he decided to take us for a tour around borough market great place to visit to have a taste of the local produce and delicacies enjoyed my time here having a salted beef sandwich while you re here is essential for the experience i instantly regretted my choice when i saw that there was one particular stall outside that sold incredible looking salted beef sandwich with melted cheese on top i d definitely go for that instead of the ordinary one google map location here eat this one roast borough market look i wasn t a fan of this place at all but i thought i d share it anyway the only reason why we came here was because i really wanted to have a traditional sunday roast with yorkshire puddings this was the only place i found that served it outside of a sunday night it was quite an uppity restaurant and recommended by another friend overall the only thing i enjoyed was the yorkshire puddings the beef was quite honestly one of the worst i ve had in my life there was a ring of overcooked layer on the outside and the meat inside had a smell and was very unpleasant quite awful really plus this restaurant was so expensive too so i was surprised by the poor quality i think living in australia you tend to become quite spoilt when it comes to the quality of beef was not impressed but at least i satisfied my craving of having a traditional sunday roast next time i ll plan my trip a little better and have it a proper sunday roast on a sunday at a proper pub google map location here camden market another local food market that my friend jeff brought us to unlike borough market which was more focused on local produce camden is all about the street eats from cuisines around the world also a fun place to explore because of the vibrant energy of the place but we were too full to eat by the time we got there the market is located in the camden which i found to be quite an eclectic part of london google map location here gold mine bayswater after a few days of being in london we couldn t help but crave some asian food sorry really couldn t help it nothing like a simple chinese roast to save the day lobsters are seriously incredibly unbelievably overpriced in australia so we wanted to have our lobster fix here in london too most people would recommend the famous four seasons restaurant for chinese roast but when we got to the restaurant the meat looked very dry and unappetising from the outside gold mine however was a few doors down and really caught our attention the skin was glistening and meat looked really juicy so we walked straight in food here was seriously delicious the roast duck and crispy roast pork was executed well both had the crispy skin and juicy meats i scoffed them both down with my fluffy white rice with a smile on my face next we had the golden sands lobster very generous portions for the price and again executed well overall we really enjoyed our chinese meal here the restaurant was clean and service was good too so glad that we didn t end up at four seasons like other people recommended because it seemed more like a uni student takeaway joint than a proper restaurant judging by the look of their meats i doubt it would ve been better than gold mine anyway google map location here craving completely satisfied olley s traditional fish chips by now we ve had high tea we ve had sunday roast the next crucial item on our agenda was a traditional fish chips even though the real traditional way to eat fish chips is out of a paper bag but it was pouring one evening and we wanted to go somewhere toasty and indoors there are a lot of local fish chip restaurants around london which to me is the next best thing no complaints from my end mum s friend took us to olley s for dinner and it was yum yum yum definitely better than any fish chip i ve had in australia the reason i say this is because of the fish they use in london i love a good cod and would have it over any flake barramundi or snapper in australia any day i love the soft white delicate texture of cod and think it goes perfectly well with the light crunchy batter i really enjoyed our fish and chip meal here and definitely recommend it too google map location here harrods food hall ever since i was young i ve always been so fascinated by the clips of harrods food hall that i ve seen on tv it looked like a glorious food haven and i couldn t wait to experience it for myself coming here was a bit of a dream come true really the entire food hall exudes luxury class and prestige it was very interesting to see all the foods of utmost quality from around the world great experience oh and the best part was all the food souvenirs we bought most of the harrods brand confectionary products were on sale and everything that we bought tasted fantastic friends and family definitely enjoyed the food gifts we got them too only regret is not taking more photos but not always to constantly whip out your heavy ass camera when you re indoors at a crowded space google map location here dinner by heston mandarin oriental even though we now have dinner by heston here in melbourne i still really wanted to experience the one in london instead firstly because it was the original secondly because i am more generous with my spendings when i m on holiday so this would definitely not have been a meal i would ve paid for in melbourne at first the restaurant seemed to be fully booked when i tried to make a reservation online as i had left it to quite late i was becoming quite desperate so asked if my friend in london could call up the restaurant and try our luck by sheer luck they managed to squeeze us in for a lunch on new year s eve perfect they had a 3 course set lunch special for 35 which i thought was fantastic value so mum and sis opted for that as for myself i simply ordered from the normal menu only because i wanted to have the famous meat fruit the mains alone was around 35 so again their 3 course set lunch for that price was great value overall the food really blew us away the meat fruit was hands down the best liver pate i ve ever had we couldn t get enough of it all the dishes were executed perfectly and i could not find a thing to fault the food was not too complex for fine dining which i find makes it hard to enjoy and well thought out we were very happy with our meal and mum said that this was one of the best fine dining meals she s had i concurred service as well was impeccable do try and book a table here if you re in town well worth the visit google map location here the serpentine lake another place we strolled nearby after a really beautiful meal at dinner by heston perfect way to enjoy a winter s day in london google map location here posted by winston at 7 42 pm 0 comments labels london travels older posts home about me winston passionate about
