Friends, Romans, Countrymen,

Lend me your ears!

You know the saying, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do"? Same goes for Perth.

"When in Perth, eat as the Australians do."

Go to the supermarket, preferably Coles, buy pure Australian food (hotdogs for the bbq), eat pure Australian beef (at McDonald's), drink Australian beer (Tooheys).

Do this for your own sake, and for the goodness of your health.

Asian food down here sucks BIG TIME.

We tried cooking assam fish the other day with those assam fish paste, the ones where you just add water and viola! assam fish. Maybe the Australian mates here will find it all hot and spicy, but it was just bland to me. Same goes for cabbage and mushrooms. How do the Australians eat, I wonder.

The only good thing about food here is their Nutella is richer, and Singapore kaya can be found. Now the only thing left is Skippy Peanut Butter. :)
