Penang Chendol

Thinking about a hot December afternoon when we sat at a table along an alleyway in Penang and ate/drank sweet, icy bowls of Penang chendol...




... and a few other delicious things.

Burgertime

A couple of photos taken earlier this year on a quiet Sunday, when I had lunch with my parents at our go-to burger place, Relish.



Lovely light, courtesy of the restaurant's floor-to-ceiling windows.

The last few weeks have been a bit crazy for me, work-wise, but things are slowly going back to normal and I'll be back soon with some new film photos & a proper post!

My friends introduced me to this dessert cafe a few months ago and I couldn't help admiring its cosy, classy decor. Wish I'd snapped more photos! I can't remember exactly which desserts we ordered, just that everything was really chocolaty, so I'll let the photos do the talking:

let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

wednesday was a snow day! in the afternoon i spent half an hour looking out of my window, just watching the snow fall, quietly, furiously, beautifully. photos don't do it justice at all.



it snowed heavily again that night, so we hid in a cosy little cafe in anam that serves pancakes. their banana pancakes were scrumptious, but their chocolate pancakes were heavenly! each bite is full of drippy dark chocolate that melts in your mouth. i couldn't take a photo because we ate them up so quickly! this definitely goes on my 'things to eat again before i leave korea' list.

yay, the weekend is here! 주말을 잘 보내세요~

korea: food

good food abounds in korea! from the top: 1)kimbap, which is quickly becoming a staple of my diet, 2)street food and 3)cold noodles (the bits in the soup are ice!). most of the food here contains LOTS of vegetables, which is good, and can be really spicy!

i've been busy settling into school but things are gradually falling into place. i'll be taking korean classes everyday while i'm here, which is exciting and a little scary.
