"23 & Life in Sydney"

Yes, it's true I watched Twilight. I'm one of the rare guys watching Twilight I suppose. Partly influenced by a female friend who said it's nice and partly influenced by the interesting plot of the Twilight series. I'm not here to give a synopsis of the movie though but here to write the last post while I'm in Sydney.


Today's my last day in Sydney & this is the first and the last movie I watched at a cinema in Sydney this year. Yes, just this one coz I was way too busy throughout the year. I thought it was worth watching it here becoz Msia always removes certain scenes in movies deemed "inappropriate" to be viewed by Msian community. What a shame.

I strongly recommend people to watch Twilight. It's quite interesting really. Not a waste of time at all. Interestingly, I watched this last series with the friend who recommended me to watch Twilight. And it's my 1st time going for a movie with a girl. Another interesting fact in my life after 23 years haha.

I'm back again! As you can see from the title itself, this post is nothing else but about my food hunt again! A friend of mine, a suizhabo (pretty girl in Hokkien dialect) *she self-acclaimed this* recommended this little cafe to me. It's a cafe which belongs to the sister of this suizabo's friend. So, u kinda get the link right?




This cafe is located at Oxford Street, Paddington which is pretty far away from where I stay. It took me prolly 35-40 mins to reach this place including walking time? When you know there's a good place for coffee/breakfast, you would go the extra mile won't u?! Gotta love that name "Not Just Coffee" & the logo! Very well designed.





What's so special with this cafe is the kind of homey feeling you get with its courtyard garden. And I have to say they are quite creative by turning the wooden crates into stools. And you can just sit wherever you want, on the stools/chairs/stairs.

The outside view of Bon Bon Fine Chocolate. It has two floors, this one is the upper floor which sells heaps of good & delicious but EXPENSIVE chocolates!













And the cafe is uniquely located underground. (A snapshot of the counter... and.... the waitress =X)














The interior of the cafe is really attractive with its vintage decor =)















The wallpapers with the many definitions of chocolates.

















My Espresso... very tiny glass indeed coz u don't need much! Otherwise you'll stay awake all night O.O

















And accompanied but a scoop of Vanilla ice cream toppled with rich Java chocolate sauce! yums! So, for anyone who doesn't know especially non-coffee lover, an espresso + ice cream = Affogato! (sounds like Avocado haha)












I'm not sure when was this chocolate boutique/cafe opened. I've walked past it a couple of times but have never made an attempt to walk in. Glad that I finally did! =D

Ermm..a rare sight of horses?? haha
 





A bald tree in the park. But spring's coming & the flowers will start to blossom soon!












No idea what's this but each of them has a different word though like "love", "friendship", "wind", "our" etc etc..














Quite a unique tree! Where's the tree trunk & branches???







Just way too many BIG trees in this park!!












Love the big field. I would love to play football here! I was actually trying to take a pic of the ducks but as you can seeeeee...they ran away! =_=













A really great spot for picnic!













And I met a friend here, who's willing to let me take a pic of him/her haha














Three siblings? or 3 best friends? Triangle love perhaps! XD












Mini bush-walking site???







How beautiful is this T.T in the middle of the pond.













A snapshot of sunset =D












The Duck Pond! So many ducks there! And some black swans too! Ermm..that partically-white colour bird..what's that??

Bondi Beach, Sydney.

But fret not..coz it's not easy to get lost in Sydney as long as you have a ticket & a mouth to ask the friendly people here =D Hence I finally made my way to Paddington Markets...

Paddington Market. Saturdays only!

Latte with no latte art on top! Coz it's a take-away zzZ
