last of Perth..

4th July 2008
last Friday i met up with Sun in the city (Perth) for shopping before noon.. we went to Taka for lunch! hehez.. i had to order Miso Katsu again! i was really greedy and ordered a Teriyaki Tofu and forced Sun to eat half of it! Sun ordered a Teriyaki Fish Set and i get to eat that too! wahaha!

it still looks as good!

Teriyaki Tofu! once upon a time, it was my favourite!

Sun left for work shortly after lunch and i walked around on my own before SL came.. she took half day off work to run some errands.. we met up and went to Harbour Town for late night shopping! that's where the real good bargains are! yup, i bought quite some stuff there! hehez!

we went to Northbridge for dinner at this new place called 'Hawker's Cuisine'.. according to SL, it's the most 'in' place for dinner now.. and it really looks like the era of Billy Lee and City Garden are over as both restaurants looked quiet as compared to Hawker's Cuisine, which is just next door!

we went home after dinner, showered and waited for Sun to come pick me up.. by then, it's already 11.30pm.. and around 12midnight when we got to her place.. everyone's asleep.. Sun asked me if i would like to squeeze with her on her single bed or if i would prefer to have a double sized air mattress all to myself.. i went for the air mattress! it was an electronic one and took less than a minute to pump up! Sun said she wanted to join me on the mattress and so we attempted to sleep after chatting..

i was really tired but was awoken in the middle of the night when i heard Sun exclaiming that it was too cold! i asked her if she would like to go back onto her bed and use the electric blanket.. she refused and said she'll squeeze closer to me.. i said okie and fell asleep again.. after some time, i heard Sun exclaimed that she couldnt take it anymore and that we both should squeeze on her single bed, at least we'll be warm! wahaha.. so up we go and we survived till the next morning.. all nice and warm.. hehez..

Sun's Mum is an amazing woman who makes pastries for breakfast! she should really open a cafe! by the time we got ready and head to the kitchen.. the fruits are washed, peeled, cut and served nicely on a plate.. She asked Sun to get me a beverage to drink, i opted for Milo! my first cup of Aussie Milo since i got back to Australia.. next, Auntie took the pastries out from the oven, fresh and hot! oh yum~ i know Cicerello's is on today's menu but i couldnt resist sharing a second one with Sun! homemade pastries!!!

we went straight to Cicerello's when we reached Fremantle! SL and HM were already there when we got our frozen arms and legs there.. the wind just wouldnt stop blowing.. SL and me did the ordering.. and people who know us will know that they better have enough space in their stomach when we are doing the ordering!!! wahaha.. we ended up with:

1. Seafood Chowder

2. Seafood Tray

3. Fish and Chips (Upper left)
4. Chilli Mussels (Upper right)

the prices at Cicerello's have gone up like mad, with the Chilli Mussels jumping from A$16.50 to a whopping A$22!!! the servings have increase in size by a little bit though.. the toilets have been renovated as well.. lunch was very filling and satisfying! http://www.cicerellos.com.au/

HM left after lunch and it was shopping time for us girls again.. we walked the Fremantle Market and came across this fascinating shop! they sell pieces of soap but done up in the fashion of cakes and desserts lookalike! it was really difficult to believe my eyes! http://www.cakeofsoap.com.au/

when Sun and SL were shopping at Myer, i had to go off in the direction where i can get coffee! luckily GJ's is nearby! i drank my Irish Nut Cream while waiting for them.. after Freo, we went to Victoria Park to get dinner.. i was craving for sushi and so i chose Kabuki.. my last dinner in Perth for this trip.. i know a lot about Victoria Park now! haha! sent SL home before heading back to Sun's house.. we learned our lesson and didnt bother about the air mattress at all!

breakfast was again made my Sun's Mum.. little pieces of Corn Custard Cakes and oven-baked bread with butter! gosh! said my thanks to Sun's parents and off to the airport.. when the plane took off, my heart was screaming, "BYE, PERTH! BYE BYE, PERTH!" this place holds some of my best memories..
