PekoPeko 鹽酥雞我來了!

Wasn't fooled by anyone, or anythings yesterday...

I wonder how this April Fool's Day started~~??

Anyway, the activity for April Fool's was to dine out at a Taiwanese restaurant--

*PekoPeko - modern Asian cafe / restaurant*

This tracked back to once that Princess J was talking about "deep-fried food in TW" with her Taiwanese friend M when she and her hubby visited at Rose St Market...

Therefore the follow-up action was to solve Princess J's craving for "taste-like-home" food~

So we made a date to dine at PekoPeko on April 1st!

(not that we thought about celebrating April fools.. just Thursday was chosen as for our dinner..)

I had to say that we were lucky because M booked a table~~ (thanks for being considerate, M)

Otherwise we'd have to queue in the door till a table was free...

After sitting down, Princess J was just very excited about getting the food..

(that's why no photos were taken last night, I was totally lost in the food  *.*)

We ordered several dishes to share--

(not that it was too much for four of us, yet our little table was full with food!)

--  Pop chicken with rice (鹽酥雞飯)

     Soup Formosa (肉羹湯) and with Rice as well (肉羹飯)

     Taiwanese sausage (臺灣香腸)

     Beef About (牛肉麵)

     Crispy Mango Prawn Won-tons (炸芒果蝦餛飩)

Pop chicken with rice (鹽酥雞飯)

Soup Formosa (肉羹湯)

(從別人家copy的2張圖,因我嘴摳ㄘㄨㄚˋ,沒拍照)

And of course, Greg ordered a bottle of TAIWAN BEER!!!

After the first sip of the beer, he even said-- "Ahh, it takes me home~~"

As if!!  @_@   The sentences  /terms he'd known in Chinese in total would be fewer than 10...

not even mention about Taiwanese- the only one term he uses well is "Ka-tzeng" (which means bums~~)!

Because I was so eager to eat, (plus there were a lot of people in the restaurant..), I didn't take any pictures this time, the photos above I copied from others'. 

(sorry la~ promise I'll definately do it when going there next time)

While we were still working on the main courses, my mind had gone to the dessert already~~

As a princess, I was very generous to give the rest of the food to Greg...

(The truth was that I wanted to save some space for the dessert, heyhey~~)

Black Rice Pudding and Green Tea flavoured+ Blcak Sesame flavoured (have you ever had this kind?) Ice Cream served us as desserts.

They both were nice!  :)

Very full after the desserts~ though we all think that it would be perfect if they had "real good" "Pearl Tea" on offer~~~ (you know, that's the most well-known drink from Taiwan!)

So it was a good day for Princess J being down under, haha~

很好,愚人節沒被任何人.事愚弄到.

好奇當初是怎會有這日子的由來??

昨天和朋友去吃了一家臺灣人開的餐廳.

叫做--- PekoPeko ----

起因於上次朋友M和她老公去Rose St Market那一次,
聊天時我說我好想念鹽酥雞,

於是為了解決公主對故鄉食物的懷想(有看到我口水要滴下來了嗎?)

就有了昨天的晚餐約會.

話說這家叫 PekoPeko- Modern Asian Cafe / Restaurant 的,

生意真不是普通的好~

要不是朋友M有先訂桌,

恐怕得排隊等上一陣子,才有位置坐下來點餐~~ 感謝M的貼心 :)

我們四個人點了好幾樣~

(其實不算多,但小小一個方桌都被塞滿了食物!!)

有-- 鹽酥雞飯.肉羹湯,臺灣香腸,芒果蝦餛飩,牛肉麵,肉羹飯.

當然Greg一坐下就先要了 TAIWAN BEER!

喝了第一口之後,

他還說: "Ahh~ it takes me HOME~"  <呃,有家的感覺~>

(最好是這樣啦~ 中文總共加起來會不到幾句,

台語最溜的也就那麼一個"咖撐"....)

Sorry 我沒有照照片-

因為人太多

公主太嘴饞

急著點餐急著吃!

主餐還沒吃完,

已經盤算著甜點了~

把吃不完的都推給Greg之後,

就迫不及待的叫了

黑糯米糕+綠茶口味冰淇淋 和 黑芝麻口味冰淇淋~~

吃完之後就真的飽了~

我們一致覺得可惜的是--

他們沒賣珍珠奶茶 之類的飲料~

要有然後又好喝的話就大完美了!!

總結: 公主南下(合"蕃"? ------  <指的是___ G??>  ) 的第一個愚人節

           Safe-  快樂地在大口大吃之晚餐中度過 :)

p.s. then I remembered that we were actually fooled by a Tram 16 driver--

As usual, he announced: "next stop- Art Centre! and it's also the last stop!!" while we just got on the tram from Flinder St station..

Greg and I looked at each other.. "I didn't know it was gonna be like this," I showed a face like that to G, didn't want to take the responsibility of being late for dinner...

Then when he stopped at the Art Centre, really, I was about to step out to catch the next whatever tram, in order to get to the destination...

Suddenly he said, "was just joking, it's not the last stop. Happy April Fool's Day!".

Gee! But I had to say it was a good one!!  :)
