Jazz City Milk Bar, Darlinghurst

I love how diner-y and vintage the whole place feels.

So, here's the thing, I didn't know there were two "Jazz City's". There's a milk bar and there's a diner. I'm not 100% sure but I've heard the diner is temporary closed. But in any case, I was at the milk bar earlier this week. And boy, it did not disappoint.

Peanut Butter Malted Milkshake- $8

Kicking things off with a peanut butter milkshake. So thick and scrumptious. I had a hard time slurping it up the straw. Oh goodness. After a few sips, I was set. I can't take that much sweet and dairy. Waaaay too much for me to handle. My friend had the rest!

Yabu, House of Katsu

I'm sure y'all have heard of (and tried) Yabu by now, but here is my review anyway! :) 

My sister and I mega mega mega love Yabu. It's always our post-F21 (yes, shame of shame, I REALLY LOOOOVE F21!!!) pigout place!

Condiment tray. Love the piggy-looking piece!

Excelsior Jones, Ashfield

Last Saturday was such a miserable morning for me. I was given a new shift at work which is definitely something good, but NOT if it was around 13C degrees out and the heater in the pool is broken. It felt like the longest 4 hours of my life. Yes, seriously. After that, I got warm and cozy, then dined at Excelsior Jones. Excelsior Jones definitely made up for my sad sad morning. 

Someone seems to be shocked.

That place was packed and we had a short wait before we got a table. This is considering we rocked up at 2pm, imagine it during peak hour! The decor was really simple, minimalistic, and straight forward. There was an old, diner-y feel to the place. I thought it was great. 

Soy Cap- $4

Started my meal with a soy cappuccino- something that hasn't been on my regular list as of late. I've been leaning towards shorter drinks. It's not bad though. 

A Healthy (But Faaaaaar Too Oversized!) Brekkie

A breakfast I had sometime in May 2012 (yes, my extremely long backlog really is extremely long). At that time, I was really conscientious about my food and trying to eat clean BUT it was during this time that I started packing on the pounds because food became a bit of an obsessive problem for me, and I was too lazy to exercise (it's true what they say - inactivity breeds inactivity. And there is no inactivity quite like unemployment inactivity).
