Snacks and Takeaway (by Biggs)

I went to Bonnie's for dinner tonight and like any good girly sleepover we started the night out with a ton of junk food. Biscuits, chips, dip, chocolate and lollies. The standout was a layered dip of baba gahnaush, hummus and BBQ eggplant called Heavenly Hummus. Worth looking into.





You wouldn't think we would actually need dinner after that but we thought otherwise and headed out to collect some takeaway from Thai Lada (formally Thai Star). I had huge confidence in the place the second I saw it. Dodgy little corner store, crammed with tables, coriander and coconut smells wafting through the air, staff speaking the right language and a conclusive sign above the door: THAI RESTAURANT.

We ordered a Massaman Curry and a Chicken Pad Thai. Both excellent. I love a Pad Thai and the beef in the curry was ridiculously tender. We were also treated to the September Special of a complimentary half serving of spring rolls even though it's October. A good night all 'round!

We noticed another restaurant near the Thai place claiming Jamaican, Malaysian and Japanese food called Roti-I-Roll. You can bet we're heading there soon.
