"Chocolate by the bald man."

This is my favourite place for a good chocolate fix. I always order the Tutti-Fruitti waffle which comes with your choice of either one ($13) or two ($17.50) Belgian waffles with fresh strawberries, fresh bananas and vanilla ice cream. Perfect chocolate craving fix!

The waffle comes to you warm and has a nice bite to it and is drizzled in warm melted milk chocolate.

*sorry, no pictures as I feel so weird taking pictures in restaurants!*



Headed to eat lunch there today :) I've walked past this restaurant numerous times and always wondered what it was like. Silly me thought it was a Japanese restaurant lol but it wasn't!

When you first walk in, you're met with the cash register. It was a bit unusual for me in that I was to grab a menu from in front of the register and then place my order and pay for it then. The menu itself was straight forward. A mix and match menu! Choose what I'd like - beef, vegies, chicken, seafood, combination. Step 2 - what kind of noodles I'd like or maybe some rice? Soup? and then finally, what I'd want for flavour. I ended up just ordering a chicken pad thai. All up, it cost me $14 for the chicken pad thai and a can of coke. Pretty good value :)

I was surprised that it wasn't packed when I went. 1PM on a public holiday. However, whenever I walk past there around dinner time, it is always busy. A good sign?

Anyways, after I ordered and paid, the lady gave us a table number on a stick thing and we just chose anywhere to sit. The chicken pad thai came out in about 10-15 minutes - pretty average waiting time in my opinion.

The dish itself? Not bad. Lacking a tiny bit of flavour but can't complain. However, I did get a big chunk of tofu? The pad thais I usually consume has cubes of tofu? Serving size was generous and this place uses the thinner rice noodles for their pad thais. Some place prefer to use the thicker ones which I don't like.

The restaurant's decor was very clean and modern and not your typical Thai homestyle restaurant.

All in all, I recommend that you all head out to Parramatta and grab yourself some yummy Thai!
