Solo dates nourish the soul. It’s a privilege to sit with yourself, to ponder about life and get to know yourself intimately, like a real date.
If you can give that time to someone else, why not extend that to yourself?

Restaurant: DeVine Restaurant, Sydney
Dish: Spatchcock, Italian sausage, pepperonata

Trying to eat cleaner so pasta was out of the question, I subbed in roasted cauliflower and found it quite filling.This was actually really good for meal prepping if you work from home, I had everything in seperate containers and whipped up the butter sauce in 15 seconds or less to drizzle

Happy Friday!
Am I right or am I right, ladies?

I chatted with my co-hosts Rebecca and Cat about comfort foods and no surprise here, unanimously it was soup, Asian chicken soup to be exact.

Food for the soul

In Da Nang, the banh xeo is a hands on culinary experience. This was how they taught me to prepare the crepe.Take a rice paper and layer it with crepe, fresh veg and herbs before rolling it up and dipping it into the sauce. The sauce they served it with in this restaurant in Da Nang is thicker than

How To Eat Banh Xeo - Vietnamese Crepes

I haven't had a banh xeo this good since the last time I was in Da Nang.
That time, I was instructed to go down an unmarked laneway and told to ignore all the other restaurant's poachers and make a bee-line for the one at the end of the alleyway, where I'll find the best banh xeo in Da Nang.
This banh xeo, a crispy tumeric crepe filled with lemongrass chicken and bean shoots, is from Banh Xeo Bar in Rosebery. I figured if the place's namesake is the dish, it's got to be decent. It didn't disappoint. It came with fresh herbs, pickled veg, lettuce and dipping sauce.

Madam Ji in Sydney's Darlinghurst is rebellious Indian food. I loved the mural of gorgeous Indian girls in traditional costume.
They made a killer margarita and martini, which always makes for a great start to the night.
Not traditional, but the burrata tadka was the perfect starter, served with crispy naan chips to mop up the sauce.
When faced with the decision to order old-faithful butter chicken or Madam’s Special Chicken Curry, we went with the latter and were so glad we decided to be a little rebellious. It was perfect with the garlic, cheese naan, which I turned into a pizza slice. A must-order is their lamb chops from the tandoor, the meat was incredibly tender and juicy.

This is my fav pizza hack for those Sunday struggles or when you don't feel like waiting for a delivery.This frozen, "Best Margarita Pizza", from Aldi are about $7 and you can just keep them in the freezer until you're desperate. Because they're plain, you can add whatever toppings your heart

Frozen Pizza Hack

STOP EVERYTHING ✋🏼 
I have found the best fried chicken in Sydney. 
Joy Fried Chicken in Chippendale are a mom & pop corner chicken shop, no frills interior and a small menu but that fried chicken is all you need. 
Every piece was juicy on the inside and super crunchy on the outside because of their thrice fried method... OH! and you know, the owner/chef is also a fine dining kitchen alum with Aria, Rockpool and Quay (just to name a few) under his belt. 
They have 5 sauces to coat the fried chicken in but you can ask for it on the side and you can get boneless chicken breast, if that's your thing. 
All the birds come with pickles, slaw and a beaming smile from the chef.
