“I think I’m a little bit excited in the pants” says Steph giddily when a plate of food is set in front of her. A little later we say “We have four girls and two meatballs” and immediately burst into laughter. For those that think that I’m hanging out with a particularly rowdy bunch of girls, you’d be slightly off the mark for today I’m hosting a “Meet My Suburb” Walking Tour of Kensington and Kingsford with a bunch of fellow food blogger gals Betty, Reem, Steph and Trina. In our best effort to eat but still fit into our clothes, we’re going to stop and eat and then do some walking. We were very lucky and had some lovely warm weather this particular weekend which made the stroll down Anzac Parade all the more enjoyable (and the iced drinks at our pit stops all the more satisfying). Our tour started at High Noon on a Sunday at Pondok Buyung where we were baying for brains…
The Bain Maries at Pondok Buyung
A few days before I had emailed the group asking them if they wanted to try brains. The answers were swift and decisive and all in the affirmative so we fronted up to the colourful bain marie display and ordered a plate of lamb’s brains, fried chicken and chili chicken along with a Es Campur and Es Telur drinks. In order to eat as much as possible, all 5 of us split a plate which thankfully doesn’t bother any of the shopkeepers there as we eat and go (ok and chat for a while but no-one was waiting for a table I promise). Total damage for the group at this stop? $17.
Mixed plate with 3 selections $11
Close up of the brains-don’t they look oh so brainey!
It’s the first time for many to try the lamb’s brains and they’re surprised at how soft and spongy they are and how mild they taste for offal (as compared to things such as liver or kidney). The chili chicken is a favourite of the group with it’s spicy chicken flavours and moistness whilst the fried chicken is too dry, something that I often find with Indonesian style chicken.
Es Cendol $3
Es Campur $3
Underneath the icy tower of the Es Campur-yes avocado!
The icey drinks are welcome and the Es Cendol is a caramelly, coconutty iced drink with wriggly tapioca noodles or “worms” and is refreshingly sweet. The one that has everyone intrigued is the Es Campur which is similar to an Ice Kacang. Underneath the shaved ice, sweetened condensed milk and rose & raspberry syrup is a treasure trove of goodies ranging from pieces of avocado, grass jelly cubes and the sweeter than sweet palm seeds which have a molar sticking texture to them. We fish around and see that there are just enough of them so that everyone can try one.
Grotta Capri outside
After our little “appetiser” we head off down Anzac Parade and past Grotta Capri which is closed on Sundays and Sushi Tengoku which was said to reopen at the end of August but has yet to do so.
We walk into Pempek Clovelly for some Pempek which are a type of fried Indonesian fish cake. Here at Pempek Clovelly they do all sorts of shapes and each is a different flavour. We buy a mixed bowl of Pempek sitting in a sweetish and sourish soy sauce which is flavoured with sugar and tamarind. Total damage for the group at this stop? $17.50.
Everyone crowds around and we diplomatically help ourselves to the various Pempeks. The large, most expensive one is the Pempek Telor at $7.50 has a whole boiled egg in the centre. I don’t like the parts with the egg as much as I like the fish cake so I’m a cheap date as far as Pempek is concerned. The other Pempeks are $2.50 each and we seem to prefer the Fish Skin pempek (not as gruesome as it sounds and definitely not too fishy). The Tofu Pempek is a fat spongey square of tofu pressed against the fish cake and is also good and there is a stick version with just the fish cake itself shaped into a baton. We see a savoury Murtabak go to another table and it looks great but alas there is a 20 minute wait and we need to keep going if we are to hit all of the places we want to.
There’s a bit of a stretch of walking (about 15 minutes) but everyone is in good spirits and concurs that this will only serve to stimulate the appetite. We walk past UNSW and get to Kingsford and hit our next stop. We’ve taken a detour for our tour as we’ve taken up a lot of time chatting and want to make sure that we hit La Paula for empanadas before they close at 4pm so we stop at Tea Inn to refresh ourselves with an iced dessert and some takeaway drinks.
We share an iced desert with 3 types of toppings: mango (unfortunately canned), sweet lotus seeds and red beans. It seems to take an inordinate time to arrive despite its simplicity but when it does, we dive in gratefully, parched from our walk in the hot sun. There are murmurs of much contentment and I particularly like the sweet lotus seeds and red bean but I’m not a fan of tinned Mango.
The drinks finally arrive – we ask them to be given to us in takeaway cups so that we can keep going as there is a short walk to La Paula. We’ve all chosen variations of the Snow Shake drinks which are drinks with flavouring, shaved ice, milk and fat, chewy sago pearls which you suck up with fat straws. We try the sesame, papaya, watermelon, taro and Winter Melon flavours. Trina tells us a story of the Winter Melon “Winter melon is called dong gua in Chinese (the phonetics I’ve used are Cantonese), and as explained “dong” sounds phonetically like both east and the “dong” from Mao Zedong even though the characters are actually different, and “gua” which means melon or gourd is the slang term for “death” (hence why gourds are usually banned from the dinner table at auspicious days like weddings or Chinese New Year).
So, together the words (for Winter Melon) sound like “Mao Zedong drop dead”. This wasn’t explicitly outlawed by Mao himself but by his Communist minions. It was more strictly enforced in Beijing and the official cities, less policed in areas of Southern China where my folks are from. Instead people were ordered to call it “heung yeung gua” literally “facing the sun gourd”, as the sun rises in the east, and the clumsy way of saying “facing the sun” replaced the word east” . Ahh the life of a dictator…
The drinks are varied in success. The papaya is quite powdery and weak, the taro is quite weak in taro flavour and missing that purple shade (although that’s probably an artificial colour), the sesame is burnt tasting as sesame can sometimes be, the watermelon is not particularly watermelon-y but not bad and the one I enjoy the most is probably Steph’s Winter Melon which actually tastes like Maple Syrup! With our reinforcements in hand, we make our way onto La Paula. Total damage at this stop? $29.60.
We walk past Romance (the scene of a very fun and memorable meal) and heads towards La Paula. Oddly situated in the middle of nowhere it is right next to a funeral parlour. We take some empanadas to eat in but not before an adorable little boy with a chocolate covered mouth helps us pull chairs around a table.
Chicken Empanada $3.70
We order one of each of the Empanadas as well as a Humitas (sweet corn wrapped in corn husks) and they bring them out hot. They’re quite big and we try the Emapanadas de Pino (beef, onion, olive, egg and spices), the Empanada de Polle (Chicken, onion, olive, egg and spices), the Empanada de Espinaca (spinach, egg and spices) and the deep fried Empanada de Queso (with homemade cheese filling).
Spinach & Cheese Empanada $3.70
Beef Empanada $3.50
Of the baked empanadas most prefer the beef empanada as it is the most flavoursome and the chicken is perhaps the least favourite as it seems to lack the spices that the beef has (although we dip this in the chili sauce). The pastry is a little thick, especially where it folds over. Reem promises to email us her empanadas recipe which she does the next day and it looks like a goodie.
Empanada de Queso $2.60
The cheese one is delightfully stringy and produces many food porn shots. And this is where Steph says her famous quote “I think I’m a little bit excited in the pants”.
Humitas $4.90
The Humitas is curious, it actually tastes like a tin of creamed corn with spices and perhaps one for creamed corn lovers as it’s mostly left behind.
We all buy various cakes and pastries to take home with us – the common denominator to all of these goodies being Dulce de leche. The prices are between $1 to $2 each for the alfajores with the flan and meringue sponge cake being $3.25 each. Total damage at this stop excluding cakes? $18.40.
Later at home I try the flan and is wonderfully eggy and wobbly, a touch more eggy than a creme caramel. The sponge cake is my favourite with a thin spread of dulce de leche on each layer and a fluffy cream meringue on top and a dousing with evaporated milk it is a hit with everyone that tries it. I wonder if it’s a version of the Tres Leches Cake.
Meatballs $1.50 each
At this point some of us are full but being troopers, we all vow to push on. There are only two places to go. The first is Pinangsia Noodle House for their gigantic meatballs. At this stage Trina has to leave so we walk in, take a table for four and ask for two meatballs. The guys behind the counter find it amusing and I suppose four girls and two meatballs is a funny thing indeed. They arrive within minutes and they’re huge, about 8cms in diameter, with a fluffy interior and nothing at all like an Italian meatball. Inside is pork mince but the texture is so unusual, sort of like one of the Ham Sui Gok dumplings that you get at Yum Cha. Despite the pork smell it has a distinctly fishy aroma but when it’s dipped in the chili sauce, it really comes into its own and the fantastic texture comes to the fore. Total damage at this stop? $3.00.
We leave our meatballs for the last stop Ayam Goreng99 but as we cross the street and walk to the front we see a staff member clicking the door shut. They were closed for the afternoon at 4pm! So we did what a good foodie would and improvised. Our last stop was a few doors down at Shalom where Betty had recommended the satay sticks.
Satay Sticks with rice $10
It’s all red inside and prices start at a tiny $4.50. We order and pay at the counter and shortly after the satay sticks arrive. Betty was right (of course), they’re excellent and are very tender and juicy indeed, in fact some of the nicest satay sticks I’ve had in a long time. They’ve got that distinct char flavour that I love in a satay and are still moist so that they ease off the stick easily. Total damage at this stop? $10.00.
We spend some time talking and chatting – it’s amazing the capacity we have for food and gossip even after talking non stop for the past 4.5 hours! The total average damage per person for all of this food? An amazingly low $20. And were we full? Absolutely but given the mouthfuls of food we had it was more like a mobile cocktail party. 5 girls, 6 places to eat and I’m sure many kilos lost and gained…
To host your own walking tour down Anzac Parade, I’d recommend bringing cash, comfortable shoes, sunblock and a hat (don’t get sunburnt!). Look out for more Meet My Suburb Tours coming up

Wow, I like them all, but the “brain”, no offenses
Oh! the shaved ice look just right…so yummie!
Ooohh Meet My Suburb! I think I’d love to host one myself – I do have the Flemington markets and the “Little Cabramatta” in my doorstep! But I’m not sure if Flemington can top off Kensington’s brains!!!
Ooh those meatballs and satay sticks look yummy! A shame I had to leave early and miss out
And I am constantly impressed at your steel trap sharp memory – I didn’t see you take any notes yet you recall the details with such clarity!
Looks like you gals had a fun day – but I think I’ll skip the brains!
Thanks so much for organising the tour! I feel like I’ve just relived it all again! It was such a great day out, I’m dying to go back to Pempek
Looks like alot of fun!!! Those satay sticks definitely look like winners. No- brains are on my no-go list!!
Good effort, girls! It’s a fabulous idea, walking between venues and ordering a few items to share. I end up having eyes bigger than my stomach most of the time.
Looking forward to more suburb tours!
the boy look soo cute!
Pondok Buyung is a great place.. love all the foods.. specilly the satay sticks with rice 
the boy look soo cute!
Pondok Buyung is a great place.. love all the foods.. especially the satay sticks with rice 
What a great idea! Walking and eating (especially in Sydney) are two of my favorite things!
Great post Lorraine!
Hahaha I sound SO inappropriate! We did so well knocking so many places off our list in the space of a few hours, it honestly didn’t feel like nearly 5 hours passed because it was great fun. I’m still undecided about the brains themself, but the curry it came in was delicious!
A food tour of Kingsford, which doesn’t go to Kingsford Chinese? Tut tut…
What an adventure. I love eating tours. The walking helps the food go down so by the time you get to the next stop its on like donkey kong.
I love brains. Actually, when I saw brains cooked on Masterchef I was really excited – they made it look so easy – but not! Through careful editing they failed to show the real difficult part – blanching and peeling the membrane off the organs. When I jumped on their site for the recipe, this very step (omitted from the broadcast version!) was the first step. It is the only think I hate about cooking them!
And when someone cooks me up a mess of brains, I’m sooooo happy!
Fabulous idea! I should start doing something like this once a fortnight or something, as I have dozens and dozens of restaurants within a short stroll from my apartment and this seems the only possible way I could maybe, possibly begin to try and get to a good chunk of them.
I’m not an offal eater, but am willing to try most things once, so I’d have a little nibble and then somehow be ’so full I couldn’t possibly fit another thing in’
My Dad used to love eating lamb’s brains, so they were a staple in our household. Lightly crumbed, fried , a squeeze of lemon and served piping hot, delicious! Sometimes it’s the ‘idea’ of eating certain foods that makes people hesitant to try, my motto is to try a food at least once and then make up your mind.
Whilst this “To avoid clogging the blogophere with reptitive content, not everyone will be blogging this” makes me happy as I get a tad over the same posts on every blog, could you give us a nudge and a link when other suburbs are done?
Sounds like a fun day out! I’ve had crumbed brains at an RSL club, but I didn’t like the texture and found them too fatty. The cheese empanada and the ice desserts look a lot more exciting.
My cousin used to love eating the chicken head (yes, you heard right). The best part for him was the brain. It would have been tiny, and I just couldn’t see the attraction!
But what a great idea for a day out.
Haha your photos make Kingsford look so chic and exotic good work!
I LOVE that pic of all the cameras aimed at once. Poor little dessert never stood a chance! Great your Lorraine – can I come on the next one?
Fun post, Lorraine
I work at UNSW I don’t often venture out onto Anzac Pde.. Hrmm… maybe I’ll have to go exploring on my lunch breaks. However, I am afraid of the effect it might have on my health kick… I really need to shape up for Spring / Summer!
Firstly I would not eat brains unless they were crumbed and fried and drowned in sauce. Offal not my fav at all. Would love to accompany you on the next ‘tou’, and would you ever do a walking tour of the Inner west…(the best area !).
I love Cendol! Thanks for the post I think I might be a copy cat and try out the same trail
A lot of great places to eat in that area, though I’ve only been to Pondok Buyung and Paula’s.
Some of the other ones seem nice nice alternate lunch options.
Love it guys! Love it!
Looks like you all had a good day!
I’d love to do a ‘Meet My Suburb’ walk like this…but as I’m not a food blogger, it wouldn’t be an extrememely interesting trip for anyone other than me (because I won’t blog about it! LOL)…
I’ve eaten brains at a Lebanese restaurant…when I was 13, I was dared by my half-Lebanese friend…I didn’t like it!
I don’t remember what it tasted like, but I know that it wasn’t nice 
I wouldn’t try it again.
Love the “Meet My Suburb” concept! So much food for 4 tiny ladies! No brain for me :p
Fantastic! This tour brought back many fond memories – I used to live in Kensington and Kingsford, have eaten at each and every place you so accurately described and am happy they still exist despite the low prices, must be the constant turnover.
Brains? Er..yes, ate that curry version too and liked it..like silken tofu with taste..at that time I wasn’t afraid of eating anything!
Too bad I had to miss this although maybe it was a secret blessing (the brains! The brains!). Ew.
Definitely can’t for more tours! Hehe especially the ones away from the city area…
wow you guys went through alot of food
I wanna go tooooooo T^T .. haha… I want to eat that Mixed plate … looks awesome !
I’m afraid I do draw the line at offal. Do brains count as offal? They do in my book. Perhaps I’ve become less adventurous since moving to the country…
oh dear. i don’t think i would really want to eat brains. so many other nicer bits of the animal but kudos for trying. the cendol and campur are really cheap. which places did you enjoy the most?
Looks like fun Lorraine and a great way to catch up with friends!
I was laughing so hard at your line “…baying for brains”. But, then again, if it’s curried lamb brains, I’d be clamoring for them, too.
I’d love to do a walking/taste tour of Melbourne one day
Brains are not food in my book! I can’t help but think of Kuru disease or CJD…*shudder*
But then I’ve never been an offal eater. My Nanna used to try to get us to eat liver and kidneys, and “black pudding”, but Mum wouldn’t let us near it. Bleh.
My kind of walking tour!! As to brains…no, I haven’t tried them, but, I’d love to. I have an ‘anything once’ attitude to food. (That’s how I know tripe doesn’t do a lot for me).
I’m partial to the topless dancers at Churchill’s Tavern at the Kingsford roundabout
Fantastic idea, nearly spat up my tea at “I think I’m a little bit excited in the pants” and 4 girls and a (2) meatballs! Can’t wait for the report of your next foodie excursion. As for brains, I love them done the French way, crumbed and deep fried and served with burnt butter and capers!
brains? i must pass on that, i’m afraid—i’m just too squeamish. many of these dishes are quite foreign to me, but that certainly doesn’t mean they’re not appetizing! i particularly love the shot of the colorful drinks, and the picture of everyone taking pictures.
Eating brain ?? haha.. no thanks!
I love reading your blog and I like the idea of touring the suburb for nice food..
I have been looking for a nice satay sticks.. will try Shalom this weekend, thanks
BTW I think you meant Es Teler, not Es Telur..
Great post! I’ve been living in Maroubra for yonks but i’ve never been to any of those places you visited! I’d like to try some of those before moving to the North Shore! Thai Boom in Kensington is my favouritest Thai takeout, I love their Pad Siew! Their food is always consistent! i know i am going to miss dearly after i move.
Wow sounds like heaps of fun… I’d love to go on a Meet My Suburb tour! The brains don’t look that bad – I’d be willing to give them a go!
You’re much braver than I am.
What a fun day! I’ve never had brain, but maybe I’ll give it a try if I see it on a menu. I love Snow Shake drinks (we call it Bubble Tea)…apple is one of my favorite flavors!
that’s a good foodie tour – I love the photo of the bloggers with cameras out – made me laugh in recognition
Awesome. Kingsford/Kensington is my local area too.
Mmm…Pinangsia’s meatballs are amazing, doubly good with chilli sauce.
Lorraine, please do a walking tour part deux!
There’s still In Chan, Ratu Sari, Fajah, the Chinese locals, Sing Ma, 99 etc.
Trivia: Grotta Capri was the restaurant used in many episodes of Underbelly season 2!
Yay! Thank you this is a great post as when I’m in Sydney I’m staying with my son & almost daughter in law that live on Todman Ave just off Anzac Parade…so perfect info for me about what’s local. Cheers, Elaine aka ellynelly
)
What a fun story!
I wouldn’t eat brains – I’m not so adventurous to eat brains, sweetbreads, liver etc… I just can’t do it!
Hi NQN,
It should be Es Teler (drunk ice) not Es Telur (ice egg?).
The main ingredient of es teler is young coconut, condensed milk, and avocado. You can add more ingredients which you like.
I have eaten brain, cooked like croquet, it is soft and doesn’t look like a brain because it already been mashed and mixed with spices then deep fried with batter. In fact, it was my favourite deep fried food. I grew up with these sold at any food stall beside beef tongue satay, chicken livers, cooked chicken blood jelly, cooked pig intestines, and cooked pig urine bladder.
Other islands in Indonesia cooking bat, deer, and other game meats.
There is no-go for me, but I will not eat dog or cat meat like in China.
Es Campur = <3
Wow! I’m truely impressed by the amount you girls had! I probably would give brains a go…and depending how they taste I may even eat a whole one eheh
Shame Ayam Goreng was closed so early! I love their food! Especially their satay sticks and the grilled chicken leg!
Wow, that’s some suburb! You’ve inspired me to want to make empanadas…the question is will I ever get around to it
I’m so sad I missed it but I don’t think I could have managed the brains in my fragile (hungover) state haha. Sounds like you guys had a great day though!
I would need a lot of drinks to eat those brains, oh and a blind fold. I sorry..I eat with my eyes.
How DO you eat all this food? And, I can tell that you would probably fit into the dress I saw today on sale that was adorable black ruffly chic in a size 0.
Hi Juliana- Hehe that’s cool, brains aren’t for everyone I know!
That was so refreshing! 
Hi Trisha-You would do a great one!
I bet Cabramatta has some great finds!
Hi Forager-They were really good
Yes what a shame! Hehe I have a great memory for food, I don’t know why 
Hi Cakelaw-We did! Hehe that’s understandable!
Hi Betty-You’re welcome! Thanks for coming and it was lots of fun spending time with you all!
Hi sandra-It was indeed
I really must go back for those satay sticks-they were great! Hehe! 
Hi romaverona-Thankyou! Yes a must as we don’t have that much of a capacity to eat
Me too, that’s always my problem 
Hi nora-He was such a little darling
The food was amazing!
Hi Brittany-Yes it helps negate the calories consumed!
Hi Steph-Thankyou!
Haha that was so funny your quote 
I know, itime really flew by because we were having so much fun. yes I think the curry is very important 
Hi Dave-tut tut…didn’t you read my post on Kingsford Chinese? I wasn’t impressed. Besides it’s such an obvious choice.
Hi Katherine-I know, we thought we were full and then suddenly some stomach space cleared miraculously!
Hi mikey-Ahh really! I’ve never tried cooking them before so that’s a very interesting point-thankyou! Hehe I’m just a bit wary of the cholesterol in them. A reader pointed that out and I freaked out!
but once in a while isn’t so bad 
Hi Conor-thankyou! Yes that would be a great idea and it’s nice to get some exercise too
Haha yes at least you try it! 
Hi Matilda-They’re quite soft and nice but quite mild tasting so the curry really helped. Crumbed would be very interesting I can imagine! Like how I’ve eaten sweetbreads which was gorgeous
Yes I totally agree!
Hi Blanche-Thankyou! Yes we’re tired of it too and so are readers. I absolutely will!
Hi Arwen -It was lovely
They are quite fatty in texture I guess (hehe that’s maybe why I like them 
).
Hi Shirley-Oh I’ve never done that (well I’ve never been offered the head!)
That’s amazing! Thanks for the tip and I’ll look out for it! 
Thankyou!
Hi Lex-Hehe thankyou! It’s exotic indeed although I don’t know if I think of the word chic when I think of Kingsford
Hi shaz-It was so funny and cute. I know, it was a target for sure! We might do some more but let me know which area you’re interested in!
Hi Ladybird -Thankyou!
Oh yes there’s a lot to be eaten there. There is that though although perhaps a meal can be shared between you and a colleague? They tend to be generous portions 
Hi Katrina Smit-Eadie-Fair enough! We’d definitely do an Inner West area one (love that area!). Which area did you have in mind?
We’re doing a few more!
Hi clekitty-Me too! Of course, go ahead, that’s why we did it, so you can do your own
Hi Simon-There are a crazy amount to eat at. In fact that was the hardest thing about putting together the tour-the editing!
Hi Jaselyn-Thankyou so much!
Hi Liv-We had a great one
Hey that’s fine, it would be a fun way to spend an afternoon! Ahh well not everyone is a brain lover but good on you for trying it! 
Hi Ellie-Thankyou! I know, we ate a lot
Hi Howard-Oh very cool! Thankyou! Yes it’s amazing how low the prices are there. Actually yes you’re right, it’s liek silken tofu!
A fearless eater huh? That’s great! 
Hi Karen-Haha you could have eaten them
Can’t wait for your tour!
Hi Betty-We sure did!
Hi Ja-Hehe next time huh?
Hi Amy-fair enough, there is some offal I won’t eat and some I will (mainly because of the smell). I guess it’s considered offal although I’m not sure
Hi Simon-Of course there are but that’s part of the adventure! I liked them all for different reasons
Hi Gab-It’s the best way to do it!
Hi Midge-Hehe we were!
I was crossing my fingers that the brains would be there 
Hi Tiffany-Great idea!
Oh yes there’s that too, I remember reading all about CJD when I studied psychology. Oh I love black pudding! Although the concept isn’t that appetising I admit… 
Hi Caro-Cool! That’s great, I admire that!
Hi Ridves-LOL such a shame we missed out on that!
Hi Moya-I kow, she is so funny!
It felt a bit raunchy but we weren’t honest! I really need to try them methinks! 
Hi grace-That’s cool!
Haha yes ahh the life of a food blogger 
Hi Angie-Hehe not for you?
Thankyou very much! Those were awesome satay sticks I have to say 
Oh yes thankyou! 
Hi Bubble-definitely please do
Hving lived on the North Shore I can confirm that there’s nothing really like them North side 
Oh thankyou for the recommendation! 
Hi Jacq-Thanks, it was!
They’re so much fun and good that you’re an adventurous eater! 
Hi Blond Duck -Hehe really?
Hi Faith-It was great
Oh yes they’re great aren’t they. The snow shake drinks were perfect for the hot weather too! 
Hi Johanna-Thankyou! Yes it’s such a funny sight to step out of for a second!
Hi Lucas-Oh cool!
Yes the chili sauce is a must on them. Yes there are so many more places to go to… but so little time! Yes that’s right-was infamy! 
Hi Elaine -You’re welcome!
Oh great you’re in the middle of the action! 
Hope you enjoy Sydney!
Hi Zam-thankyou very much!
Hehe that’s fair enough, they’re not to everyone’s taste 
I eat some offal but not others!
Hi Lilia-Thank, I’ve changed it
Yes I really need to try it done like that although it’s quite high in cholesterol already 
Bat and deer? 
Wow that’s amazing! Interesting, is that because they are pets? 
Hi ArtemisIII-Hehe!
Hi carolyn-I am amazed how much we managed to eat!
Oh good on you! 
I know, we only just missed out too 
Hi maris-Hehe I have a recipe too and it’s on my very long to make list
Hi Lisa-Ahh you poor thing! Yes the sight of brains might have pushed you over the edge. We did!
Hi Angela-hehe really?
Yes if we mashed it up for you perhaps you might give it a go? 
I’m not a size 0 sadly, I’m a size 4 American which is 8-10 here depending on how much I’ve baked that past week so quite far off. I wish though! 
i bumped into this blog by chance and i really enjoyed it! definitely brings back memories from my uni days in unsw!
to answer your question: yes, i love gulai otak though the cholesterol level gives me headache
