A Sydney food blog celebrating the world's great culinary underbelly. We are ham-fisted enthusiasts who dig traditional foods, hole-in-the-wall restaurants, and international supermarkets of mystery.
The first time we saw a PappaRich restaurant was in Malaysia, in the heart of KL. We wondered who on earth would want to eat in that cheesy-chainstore-y looking place when we're surrounded by street stalls and wonderful hole in the wall restaurants like Hussain Bistro Curry House? Not us. And not anyone else really, it was near empty whenever we walked by.
Korean street snacks don't get much sweeter and winter perfect than hotteok, a pancake filled with sugar and chopped nuts. When we saw a make at home box, we fired up the griddle and got flipping.
Attention students and tightwads: camouflaged in the jungle of pleather, plastic and polyester that is Paddy's Markets, lurks some of the best bargain feeds in Chinatown.
