I am craving for the Aussie Chinese food every since I left Australia. I have been staying there for 5 years and I love every moment of it. When I am there, I get home sick too.
The Chinese food especially in Sydney is simply delicious. Most of the big Hong Kong chef migrated and start their business there. The seafood like scallops, abalone, king crabs and oysters were the best I ever tasted. If I ever go back there, I will sure spend myself a scrumptious meal.
During my studies there, I always brought back some huge abalone whenever I came home for summer break. It is really big. I remembered when I was a secondary student, I told my teacher that I ate a big abalone, she wouldn’t believe me. Abalone at that time was affordable. My mom will cook something delicious with the abalone.
Recently I got my friend to bring me some abalone back which I missed. With abalone, you need to know how to cook it. If it is not cook properly, it will become like rubber. You need to tenderize it. It can be cook with any vegetables like broccoli. You can also make double boil chicken soup with it. It is simply my favorite.
If any of you coming back from there, please bring me some more abalone!
never eat an abalone right from the shell before. what’s the name of the restaurant in Sydney? will sure request my SIL bring us there when we visit her. =)
michel: You can get from the market in China Town, if you want fresh ones. Restaurant will mark up the price, unless you eat in there.
