Check me out!!!
HEY everyone, how's everything going? Sorry I havent been able to update here. One of the reason is because I [really] SELDOM go out to eat nowadays in Melbourne because everything is so freaking expensive. Plus, I'm on a diet now! Therefore, these kinda sum up why I can't possibly come up with new food posts here.
HOWEVER, I have been quite active on my personal blog FIONISM. So IF you feel that this blog is growing mould everywhere, which I guess is an undeniable fact, FEEL FREE TO STALK ME THERE!!
You get to know what's happening in my life in Melbourne. I share the things that I like and also...to warn you in advance, there are lots of vain selcas of me and my friends! <3 p="p">
GO TO:
BTW, HAPPY BELATED MOONCAKE FESTIVAL EVERYONE!
Enjoying mid autumn? It's spring in Melbourne now...which means, summer is on its way here too....NO~~~~

Red beans soup
Gosh, I am really procrastinating in everything lately. My semester break just ended and then now mountains of homework, assignments and essays are piling up on my to-do list again TT so sad~~
As I promised in the previous post, I will post a short update AT LEAST ONCE EVERY WEEK so this is it ^^
Red bean plus glutinous rice. You cant really see the glutinous rice in from the pictures there because its of a small amount only. Could only feel its presence when you put it into your mouth.
The white colour thing to pour in is something like milk cream, I don't know the exact name for it though which makes it slightly creamier and sweeter and apparently, tastier xD
A homemade dessert by my mom's friend ^^ I don't have the recipe for it, sad case
Ok, can't blog too much right now, gonna go do my Mathematics homework already :/ have a nice week everyone xx

Comeback Update: Passion fruit Cake and Lemon Tart
Hey everyone, I'm back. So sorry that I have been neglecting this blog for such a long time. Really didn't get to try out good food in Melbourne, that's why no reviews to write. So sad TT
Now, I will TRY to update every week because my hostel is giving us FORMAL HALL DINNER every Wednesday, which is the only day with super duper good food LOL
In the meantime, I am sharing some of my favourite desserts which are being served in my hostel during dinner, occasionally.
Passion fruit cake :D
I always chose passion fruit over blueberry and strawberry, that's why I only have this photo. OOPS :/
Lemon tart
Sometimes me and my friends would pack this for next day's breakfast. Feel so blissful eating this early in the morning especially taken right from the fridge~awww...
Such guilty indulgence for me!
Join me on FIONISM's Facebook page as well :D

I am on a diet right now TT Planning to slim down by 1 inch on my waist and all these desserts and meals are always seducing me, OMG! Slimming down is such a challenging task for me :S
**By the way, I started another blog to for me to blog about my personal life and it acts as a place for me to put all my thoughts and rants. Because this is purely a foodie blog, I think it's better to not have things jumbled up, right?
My personal blog is called FIONISM. This is the screenshot of it. And the link to it is here ^^ Feel free to visit :D and don't forget to drop me a comment as well IF you feel like it.

How To Find Great Restaurants
How to Find Great Restaurants
Dining out can be fun. Dining out can also be boring. Going to the same restaurant time and again makes for a lackluster experience. Instead of venturing to the same eateries, you might visit a new venue. Discovering new places or even attempting to try new restaurants can be disappointing.
Reviews, recommendations and even applications can all help you locate the best eateries in town. Whether you’re a student attending an online culinary course or just looking for new venues, finding some of the best spots in town is easy.
Online Reviews
Chances are if the restaurant is big enough, critiques will have something to say about it. The reviews will discuss the ambiance, food and location. Critiques might belittle a dish or revere an entrée. However amiable or vilifying the comments may be, a food critique will help direct you to some of the best places in town.
If a reviewer happens to enjoy a particular genre of food, his advice can guide you to places to try and restaurants to avoid. The insights of a food critique can ensure you get nothing but the best.
Applications
Smartphones continue to reinvent the way customers shop. Smartphone applications, most notably Yelp, help you locate all the restaurants in your area for a particular genre. Got a craving for Chinese, Yelp it. Are you dying to try the best sushi in town, Yelp it. Yelp works as a user-oriented critique, meaning it can be both a good and a bad thing.
The good: Users will offer honest opinions on the food, pricing and atmosphere giving some insightful information. The bad: Users may not be objective in their reviews like a professional will. What a user may find disgusting, you might enjoy. User-review based applications should be viewed with an objective eye. Take the good and bad and average the two. If a restaurant has nothing but four or five stars, chances are the place serves up some delicious food. If the restaurant only has ones or twos, avoid it.
Local Advertisement
Flyers, food menus and television commercials aim to try to get you to visit a restaurant. Why not give these advertised locations a chance? If you feel a bit wary about the food, you can always give a user-review application a whirl or check out a professional review to see if the restaurant is worth the hype.
If food is your passion, and dining out an adventure, you might find a professional career as a food critic. For more information on the restaurant business or careers in the industry, visit onlinecollegeclasses.org.
