yummy

Helados Jauja, 254 Lygon Street Carlton

Yay i'm back! Just had a pretty stressful week but it's all over now after two assignments and one midsem. Here are some awesome pictures of what i did after uni today... 

Pandan Coconut  (kuih talem) & Argentine Milk Tea Icecreams 

LOL hello tongue. If you're wondering where I find all these foodie places to post about and are sick of using UrbanSpoon then i highly advise the website/newspaper Broadsheet Melbourne.  This website offers insightful and useful reviews on food and drink, fashion, night life and entertainment in Melbourne and I really like how new stories are published everyday so i can learn more things about this city. Anyway, this Helados Jauja icecream place is a fusion of Malaysia and Argentina. The flavours range from salted caramel to durian (note the lid for the durian tub in the picture haha) but i wish they opened later than 10:30pm. 

Pellegrini's Espresso Bar, Little Bourke Street 

If you're looking for a hearty quick fix on a cold night (and don't feel like going to a sauna aka hot pot) then this is it. Best known for producing traditional Italian pasta and retaining its classic 1950s diner interior, Pellegrini's lived up to our expectations with its good food, fast service and cosy atmosphere. 

Spaghetti Bolognaise 

I don't know - i just had to try the classic bolognaise. I think i like it best when there are big chunks of minced meat and i want to try the Minestrone Soup the next time i come. 

Spaghetti Carbonara

This carbonara had a faint aroma of seafood in it but what i liked the most was how "light" this dish tasted. I usually avoid carbonara because of its heaviness but I wouldn't mind eating this version again. So far so good. 

Okay, i think it's time to sleep and i really should apply to write for Broadsheet lol but ceebs. I don't have the food critic flair but just wait till Masterchef starts again.... i'm going to be fat and writing like i know my gastronomy yo.
