Recentish stuff …

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

Seen

• Micmacs – interesting, quirky
• Welcome – depressing, no punches pulled
• Agora – underrated and underexposed, a little loose in its historic portrayal
• Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky – intense, lavish and introspective
• 2012 – lol
• Iron Man 2 – hell yeah
• The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo – brutal, great cinematography, intriguing, too many endings?

Dined

• Thai Country, Holland Park – awesome food (pumpkin curry, thai green curry with king prawns), average service, food makes it all worthwhile
• Treacle, The Grange – always a pleasure
• Asian Fusion, Fortitude Valley – red curry, a bit salty
• Wah, City – great food (thin-sliced pork & kim chi, kim chi pancakes), a little stuffy, service is ok
• Hien Vuong, Sunnybank – hellz yea – crispy skin chicken in glass noodle soup, combination spring rolls, pork & chicken with rice vermicelli – can get a bit crowded, service without a smile

Cooked

• Signature Roast Pumpkin & Salad with baby spinach, green olives and fetta-stuffed peppers
• Some concoction with kim chi, chicken dumplings and rice vermicelli stir-fried in sesame oil.  Needs refinement.
