Fusion Cafe, Eastwood

"It's not worth the effort to cook tonight."

That was my mother's decision to take a night off, so we headed off to a cafe I've tried once before - and enjoyed!

Fusion Cafe in Eastwood is tucked away within the arcade, on the western (busy) side of Eastwood Station. Reminiscent of a "Hong Kong Cha-chaang-tang" (Western-style cafe serving Asian dishes), this place has a wide range of Asian selections to enjoy.

I did mention a vast menu, right? I exaggerate a little - there's at least 30 different choices there to enjoy, and some come in a "set menu" - the 6 favourite dishes served with a drink (coffee, tea, lemon and honey tea, cold drinks a surcharge).

You could always choose to bump up the dinner set to include soup of the day as well, a slice of dessert cake, or both. We were thinking of trying the dessert cake... unfortunately, the waiter mucked up the order, and put us both down for the standard set menu (it's only cake, right).

I don't much more to say, to be honest: it's a simple, homely place for a good Asian feed. We ordered the baked spaghetti of fish in cream sauce (top) and Baked Portuguese chicken rice - two dishes worth of creamy, filling (to the point of bloating), fattening goodness that delighted my tastebuds.
