Tay Do, Canley Heights

Greetings!

This will be a relatively short post to get back into blogging again. Feels good to be blogging again after a few hectic week. Uni assessments, society events, weekly 21st's. Glad to finally have a breather now until final exams. There always seems to be drama at the most inconvenient and unexpected times. Since starting this blog, I've made met a lot of new faces and made a few friends who I can trust and talk to, joined a Oztag team with Fairfield City Council, went to a few new food places (to be posted!), started playing piano again, and quitting my job at Chemist Warehouse.

So I had lunch at Tay Do (next to aquarium and Diem Hen) on Canley Vale Road. It was my first time there and I was introduced to it by a good friend. They are a fusion of chinese and vietnamese food which also provide set menus for dinner for groups 4 and up. For lunch, we both went with Stewed Duck Noodles (Dry version). In vietnamese, they are called "Mi Vit Tiem". Up until that day, I've only tried the vegetarian version of Mi Vit Tiem. I have no idea what it was meant to taste like but the soup is AMAZING. The duck just falls off the bones. Was so good and honestly a reasonable price too. Because it was the dry version, you get a bowl of noodles and soup separate.

Stewed Duck Noodles ($10.50)

 Definitely would come back for another! Not sure how it is at dinner time but there generally is always people inside.

Miss Chu Tuckshop, Sydney

I went down to visit Miss Chu's on George Street for lunch with a group of friends. As you walk down the escalator, you notice unusual tables (like ironing boards!) and small chairs. The restaurant itself does look like a tuck shop except permanently stationary. The atmosphere is quite nice and inviting! Really makes you want to try out their food. Their menu and specials are displayed on blackboards. Alternatively, you can download the app on your smartphone and browse through their complete menu. As you sit at the table, you will notice a booklet titled "Me thirsty" where you can mark off what drinks you would like. To order your food, it is a similar process however you must approach the counter to receive the order form for food. 

So I ordered Prawn Har Gow (Prawn Dumplings) and Banh Cuon. The sauce used for Prawn Har Gow was not your typical soy sauce. It was strong and had a sweet and sour taste to it. I found it quite strange and prefer the typical sauce. The Banh Cuon however was good! Would definitely have it again.

Overall, I'd say Miss Chu is a bit overpriced but I would come back to try out other things on their menu.
