I just finished making the “Braised Beef Ribs” from the Longrain cookbook. Sticky, salty, sweet and chock full of flavour. I regularly make the “Braised Beef Shin” and double the salad mix. This is a terrific source of modern Thai and one my all time favorites.

What kind of oyster is nice in US?? I have tried Pacific oyster, but it has different taste compared to Sydney rock oyster.

I could never bring myself to eat fresh oysters… I need my food to be very very dead… as in impossible to revive via CPR! :P But it’s great that you enjoyed your food there! Looks and sounds divine!

You’ve probably already found out by now, but eschallot/eschallotte are just other names for shallots. (see the resemblance?)

What a combination! I wonder what Betal leaves taste like though, never tasted one before!

Well, glad you enjoyed the food in Sydney :)

Hi,
I just wanted to tell you that I LOVE your blog! I’ve stopped by a few times already, but this is my first comment. It’s a great source of inspiration for me who just adore traditional and modern asian food, and your photos are simply wonderful.
I’ll come back for sure! :)

There are a great many Thai restaurants here in Sydney, and several are excellent. Sydney is the Thai food capital of Australia, for some reason.
What is Pg food, team bsg? Perhaps I can advise on where to find good examples in Sydney.

Thanks for the tip on the cookbook.

I am always amazed by your stunningly fresh looking photos.
