Thinking about our meal at Lume. Jerusalem artichoke, praline, quince. Say what? In a dessert? (at Lume)

Course 9: sea corn and dairy cow. One of the top dishes of the meal. A little trickery involved - the corn is not corn, noodle is not noodle. Flavours were spot on full of umami. (at Lume)

Course 5 @ Lume : pearl on the sea floor. (at Lume)

[aaravenous]

Course 3: rare roasted quince, notes of chamomile and honey, duck liver, nasturtiums. (at Lume)

[aaravenous]

2nd course: oar congee made with entrails of calamari. (at Lume)

[aaravenous]

1st course: warm buttered dough, truffle, duck fat. (at Lume)

Good morning Hong kong. It's hazy, hot + humid, but loving the food! #travellife #travelgram #hk #instadaily @ Kennedy town.

The most sumptuous char siu ever. Melts in your mouth, just the right amount of honey. @ lung king heen @jnny_huynh

[aaravenous]

Char siu bao will simply not be the same after this @lung king heen. #gluttony #yumcha #hk

Pistachio layer cake with cranberry, Earl grey custard, meringue. Really good balance of sweetness + fragrant fruit + nut. #brownbrothers #dessert (at Brown Brothers Winery)

Pan fried barramundi @ brown brothers. Golden skin, sumptuous flesh, creamy sauce of corn. Perfect wintery food, not too heavy but hearty enough. #winterfood #brownbrothers #travellife #victoria (at Brown Brothers Winery)
