SIN: Mid-Autumn 2015 Mooncakes @ Bakerzin

Image
Smooth lotus paste infused with jasmine so fragrant! Today is 2015 Mid-Autumn Festival! This is the fourth time I'm going to write about mooncakes in this blog, and apparently I've never written a single thing on traditional baked ones. Hence, a few days ago, I decided to get some from Bakerzin.

TRY: Kordon Yengec Restaurant

An incredibly fresh grouper, ending with an amazingly special dessert! Let's continue with our adventure in Izmir, Turkey. The evening at Izmir was spent at Konak Pier, which includes a long stretch of marina for a pleasant walk. Out of the innumerable eateries there, my BFF and I decided to give Kordon Yengec Restaurant a visit, which is one of the most highly rated restaurants there.

SIN: Tart Blanc

A happy marriage between peach and salted egg yolk! Let's take a short break from Turkish food as it's Pikachu's and my birthday! In spite of the current not-so-good situation I'm currently facing, I took a bit of time off in the afternoon for a simple celebration with my BFF. Tart Blanc is a small café tucked in a row of shops in Millenia Walk with its unsurprising, unmistakable white interior.

TRY: SushiCo

Have you ever tried General Tso chicken? :P It was time to leave for Izmir, Turkey by train. My stomach was growling throughout the whole journey, waiting to be fed. Upon arriving at the city, my BFF and I quickly made our way to the next hotel to check in and put down our things. SushiCo was the destination for our late lunch, a seemingly popular chain of restaurants serving Chinese, Japanese and Thai cuisine.

TRY: Urkmez Hotel [Breakfast]

Image
Delicious homemade cheese spread to go with French toast! In Selcuk, Turkey, my BFF and I stayed for one night at a small, but cosy inn called Urkmez Hotel (no star). It's written on the Internet that the buffet breakfast is served at its topmost floor daily, offering a panoramic view of the town. The inn is manned by friendly and polite staff who'll make you feel at home.

TRY: Mehmet & Alibaba Kebab House

Messy, but appetising Turkish scrambled eggs! September is here! To be honest, I really want to sing "Wake Me Up When September Ends" due to the hectic schedule I'm having at the moment, but I suppose I shall look forward to Pikachu and my birthday this month. Back in Selcuk, Turkey, after having lots of fun exploring Ephesus, it was time for dinner at the well-known Mehmet & Alibaba Kebab House.
