Banh Mi Thit in Sydney, Vietnamese | Noodlies Sydney food blog – Wow, a map and price comparison of every shop selling Vietnamese pork rolls in the Sydney CBD. (Well, mostly. They do list some in Chippo and Ultimo.) I was a big fan of Chop Chop back when I worked at M&S on York Street. Didn’t realise they were at the top end of the price scale though!
Excellent public service announcement from Volkswagen. Last week in the US I saw – *cough* – SEVERAL people who should know better checking their phones and texting while driving. I hope they watch this. (Link courtesy of John.)
My Dad informed us after the funeral last weekend that when he goes, he wants the traditional family feast to consist of pulled pork, bratwurst, sweet tea, and lots and lots of coleslaw. He loves coleslaw. Coincidentally enough, Serious Eats are featuring coleslaw recipes this week:
There you go, Dad. 🙂
Talking Head
Last week I attended the Brightcove PLAY conference with a few members of my team. Brightcove are our video partner for 9jumpin, and they’d asked me if I could stop by between sessions and record a quick video interview. So I memorised some talking points and put on some makeup so I’d look presentable. When I turned up for the interview though, they told me that Brightcove’s CEO was so impressed with our State of Origin multi-cam feature that he wanted them to record me demo-ing it. So I whipped out the iPad, threw out my talking points, and winged it as best I could. (I wasn’t sure if non-Australians would even know what State of Origin is, so that was the first challenge.) They’ve just written it up on their blog along with the edited video, and I think it looks pretty good! I talk too fast as usual, but I’m happy with how it turned out.
Star Wars Macarons – Semi Sweet Designs – These are amazing!
Perfect Fried Eggs Recipe – Cook’s Illustrated – Interesting. Two types of fats. Hm.
ThinkGeek :: Rampaging Kaiju Garden Gnome – My only regret is I don’t think I can get it shipped to my Dad in time for Father’s Day…
Holy moly! Chimps are really, really smart. Like, if I see that new Planet of the Apes movie, I’m gonna have nightmares SMART.
