is this wrong?




I grew up in hong kong and man, I love that band, soft hard.
they were like the funniest and most orginal comic duo in hk.
but I just cant help but notice they have been doing the helmet thing for a while since they reunited.

daft punk has been doing it for ages! they are a french music duo that does great electro music and put on great light shows in their concert. they have never really shown their faces in public, hence the robot look was made famous.

there's a fine line between copying or drawing inspiration from other sources.
and from the rate of things, the future is looking bad.

I dreamed of roasted goose




tell me if anyone can resist this?
this is roasted goose heaven!
in my opinion, better than yung kee, and half the price!

this place in tai po market is always full but don't worry you wont get your goose.
cos the roast it and bring them out by the trolley-full all through the dinner rush!

the night i was there, they happened to have a just out of the oven, still warm suckling big coming out! get it better than this?

i went there because my auntie loves the place and I saw it on anthony bourdain!
you are right again, mr bourdain!

best to go in a big group, so you can sample more! meat lovers' paradise!

exfoliate.


I been meaning to write abt this AMAZING exfoliator since forever!
and after 2 mths of use, i can honestly tell you this eve lom exfoliator is the best that you can get!

u spread it on like a mask and you wait for 15 mins for it to dry. the texture is very coarse. after that, you rub it off with yur finger tips in upward motion so the mask and all your deadskin will flake off! and it is immensely satisfying to see all these dead skin coming off! and the motion will help you stimulate the the blood flow in your face, hence brighter looking skin!!!

and you can slo use it as a eye de-puffer. you just dot a few little dots under your dark circle and since it has eucalptus in it, and you will rub if off afterwards, it will calm the skin and helps circulation around the eye area

instructions said that you should finish off by washing your face with eve lom muslin cloth, I am abt to get that, lets see how I go!

www.evelom.com or anyhwere in the UK.
28 pounds for 50ml tube (I do it once to twice a week and it has almost last 2 months)
48 pounds for 100ml jar

gone but definitely not forgotten






I think it is time to resurrect ko and my baby.

although our blog is no longer about sydney, but I still have a back log of sydney stuff I will have to write about!

this was my second last visit at fratelli fresh, it was one of my last weekend in sydney I got to spend with our lovely friend, kay!

it was a big lunch, we had the antipasto, it was so yummy, esp the egg with mayo!
u know after u took a bite of it you just smile, it's that good!

next for main, we had pork belly and fennel salad, the crackling on the pork belly is too die for, makes the best crackling sound, oh its like sweet music! the fennel salad has blood orange in it, I tried to replicate it, but it wasnt that good, cos I cant shave the fennel that thinly.

to finish off, I think the pink thing its called supazzo or something like that (kay can u pls check?) its like a berry sorbet with sparkling wine, kinda like a adult version of spider. and last but not least, the BESTEST banoffee pie ever! (Ko, u will have to show me ur best version soon, do share ur recipe!)

i think this will be my first stop when I go back to sydney for a visit!
It's not far from the airport.
