Chinese Opera / Chengdu, China

April 14, 2013 by Both Ways

Staying in the old part of Chengdu (about 400 years old), gives you a real slice of history with an authentic experience – even our hotel felt like a  museum. This meant hunting & gathering meals was also a purely authentic experience – with nothing in English. With stubbornly unhelpful staff and no picture book menus, we ventured into the streets for some curb stall food instead.

Holy smoke! This dessert was AMAZING in every sense of the word. Tried so hard not to devour this too quickly in front of clients... . . . #dessert #darkchocolate #whitechocolate #popcorn #candiedpopcorn #passionfruit #mousse #steakministry #theatre #melbourne #australia #omnomnom #foodporn #fortheloveoffood #sweettooth #thewaytobe
I’ve made it my mission to try out the local ice cream in every city we’ve been to, so I’ve had a decent cross section of flavours from blue cheese ice cream right through to Absynth ice cream. Today, I’ve stumbled across the BEST ice cream in the world and it blew. my. mind. Pidapipó is located in Melbourne’s Chapel St. I had the Pistachio and Salted Caramel gelato - purest flavours and the most gorgeous creamy (almost buttery) texture. Very generous serving size to the point that it was painful (good pain of course) - I was so full but endured it because I just can’t let good ice cream go to waste. This could possibly have ruined me because it’s now set the bar so so high... 😕 . . . #gelato #icecream #pidapipo #pidapipogelateria #chapelstreet #melbourne #australia #melbournefood #fortheloveoffood #dessert #fresh #fruit #wholemilk #realflavour #saltedcaramel #pistachio #italian #gelateria #food #sweet #indulgence

We’re trudging through dangerous territory when I discovered from @stevie_draws that @yeahbowl_poke has opened up a store in @britomartnz! This will satisfy my regular Poke addiction... . . . #poke #food #foodporn #fortheloveoffood #pokeaddict #hawaiian #salmon #salmonpoke #britomart #britomarttrainstation #auckland #newzealand #nz #lunch #healthyfood #fresh #hungry #thewaytobe

We're currently back in New Zealand recharging the 'ol batteries and plotting our next adventure!

There's been quite a few moments recently which plunged us deep in our memory banks and have made us reminisce about China and Russia.

As much as we love being home, we're starting to get itchy feet... Where to next? ;)
