Jacks’ Steak

No, it’s not Jack Sparrow, but Outback Jacks. It’s a bar & grill restaurant Aussie style, quite newly opened (not sure how new) here in Fremantle. Had a night out with Carol and Lisa, we stumbled across this restaurant and got attracted with the smell from outside the restaurant, just when we couldn’t decide what’s for dinner.

Not a bad place for Aussies with their favor with steaks and BBQ. Since I have not had a good steak for a while… decided to pop in! First off… the wait was about 20mins! That’s a good business for them, but bad wait for us. FYI, it was a cold night. Carol went ahead with the waiting list, and we decided to have a short walk around before they can seat us.

Right back at the restaurant, Lisa and I took about 10mins later to realize there was a giant croc hanging down from the ceiling… just like the newspaper article below.

Freaky I say… giant croc, reminds me of ‘ahem’… BUAYA!!! I need a croc dundee! Hehehe… We got seated finally after about 30mins. But there’s another wait… wait for food, which was another half and hour. Good thing I had good companies and some got busy chatting away catching up with each other.

Finally, ‘royal entries’ for our steaks! Mine was a medium-rare T-bone steak.

It’s not that ’super huge’ portion… just that the platter is deceiving, especially with that amount of steak fries on it! The steaks didn’t quite turned out the way we expected them to be. My medium-rare steak wasn’t tender enough and tasted like medium to well done, whereas Carol’s and Lisa’s said theirs were like cooked through instead of just medium. Maybe it’s just the Aussie-way grills? Oh well… not a bad try, but I would expect it to be better.

But what counts at the end of the night is a good catching up dinner with some good friends. =)

Hmm… but I wonder how is it like to take in 1KG Rump Steak in 30mins? *gulp* There’s a challenge for anyone interested in gobbling it for in exchange for half price and free T-shirt. Meanwhile, I’m happy with my wee-bit portion, thanks!

My ratings: 3.5 out of 5.

Some Randoms

This is just a random post… where just one of the days I feel like doing the below…

It may be what it seems like the ‘Doing the Karen Cheng‘ thing… but I’m just doing for my own fun. My style? Comfy casual. I like to be comfortable in what I wear. Who doesn’t? I guess they may be some minorities who dress to ‘kill’! But not me. I’m just being me. =)

Hey! Check out my winter snuggles!

Thanks to my mom, I don’t have to worry about having cold feet now! I literally run around the house with these. Hehe! Then again, pink is not my color… but heck! This is warm and comfy. Wee~

Morning Colors

Despite the cold and rainy week, there is still a short moment of unexpected yet extraordinary scene occured. It really helps to brighten up one’s day and brushes all the moodiness and gloomy feelings away… well at least for that one short moment.

I was and am freezing my ass some mornings when I woke up to get to work. I don’t mind the cold, but I seriously dislike the wet weather happening at the same time. Geez… some Malaysian rain is happening here, plus big strong winds which literally can blow me (who cares if I’m small) or anyone off! Well, my umbrella did flipped for that matter. I am really not enjoying this wet winter. I am wishing it to be over SOON!

That one short moment which took my breath away and helps me start fresh in the morning… well this should happen on a blue Monday but heck! Who cares?! It happened to cheer me up anyway.

It’s a huge rainbow, and a fully-formed one! My little camera-phone can’t take it all of course. But I still managed to have a go with it. This massive rainbow is my first seen fully-formed and clearly visible for up to 15mins. Hah! Superb!

Hoped to seize that moment. But it’s good enough that it actually stayed clear and visible for so long. My walk to the train station and trip to Freo takes me about 10 - 15mins. That’s how long it is… till I reached Freo train station, it started to pour. =_= Meh!

Who’s the Daddy?

It’s my dearest Dad of course! Haha… in a nice way. *wink* It’s my dearest dad’s big day today. Although I’m not there to celebrate with him, he knows I love him very very much! My gift is there with a little help from my other half. But ultimately, love is much bigger gift to be presented to my dad than any other objects.

To you my daddy dearest…

Look at Dad O’Mighty… he’s fun to be with! Hehe!

Have a wonderful day with many joy and blessings!

Love from your dearest daughter, Hui.
