Bamboo Bibigo, Surry Hills

Bamboo Bibigo in Surry Hills serves a Korean take on Japanese Bento meals and Donburi. The restaurant is literally Bamboo themed with decor all in bamboo and food served in bamboo bowls.

There are a 2 main options of what you can order.
Bibigo - which is really Donburi.
Dosirak - which is really a Bento box.

There are the standard Japanese options of Chicken Katsu, Tempura, Salmon Teriyaki, Karage Chicken or Curry chicken. And there's the Korean fusion twist of Spicy Prawn, Spicy Salmon and Bolgogi.

Food
This is what I ordered - Miso Yaki Dosirak. There was seafood in miso sauce, a green salad, potato salad, takoyaki (octopus balls), pickles, fruit, rice and miso soup.


The food was quite salty, definitely had to have the seafood in miso with the rice and wash down with water. Probably it wouldn't be too bad if it wasn't in miso paste.

Value
The food was indeed value for money. Prices start from $5 for a small Bibigo, $8 for a regular Bibigo to $13 for a Dosirak.

Overall
This is a nice homely local restaurant. The service was warm and friendly. This is a good place for a quick economical lunch or dinner. Worth going back again to try something not in miso!

COVID-19 Stay at Home Day 7: Crispy Rice Cakes Recipe

Hey guys! Just sharing a quick analogy about numbers and COVID-19 and why you should avoid the disease before I post my recipe of the day. Imagine you have a packet of M&Ms with 100 little chocolates in it. Now you're being told between 2-6 pieces in that packet has cyanide in it, and there are a few that will give you violent diahorrea what would you do?  1) Throw the whole packet away 2) Eat it cause I won't die from diahorrea 3) Eat it cause what's the risk of dying, it's just 2-6%?! 4) Eat it and share it with all your friends and family and even your doggy! Personally, the most logical answer for me is to throw the whole packet away. It's the same reason why I'm staying at home to help stop the spread of COVID-19. I guess it's really food for thought! That said, here's my recipe for today! I've had some leftover rice from last night and NO WAY, not wasting any rice as it's super hard to find rice out there. I've turn my lef...

How to pick your notebook for Bullet Journal

Image
The bullet journal is a "back-to-traditional" organisational tool. It has won many fans not only from those who like being organised with to-do lists, but also from many craft and stationary enthusiast. If you've not heard of bullet journalling (or bujo for short), it is a system using a combination of long term and short term to-do lists, coupled with calendars to keep organised. Variations include meal prep lists, shopping lists, goals, etc. Many craft lovers also use their bujos for variations of paper crafts (like scrapbooking) and calligraphy. There are a good variety of different types and styles of notebooks available on the market. One of the most common dilemmas most newbies to bullet journalling have is what type of notebook to use. It might seem quite trivial for those who have never stepped into the bullet journalling world, but in fact the different types of notebook are used quite differently. To pick your first bullet journal, I've tried to catego...
