So today my friends and I decided to go down to the city and visit Martin Place to pay our respects to the two lost.

It is truly a tragic event and my deepest condolences are sent to their families – may God bless them. But it is amazing to see the amount of support from the people of Sydney and the #illridewithyou being created.

After we payed our respects at Martin Place, we headed off to have lunch at Sussex Centre (my fav place to eat!)

I always order the same thing every time I go: Chicken Yaki Udon (Spicy), it is delicious and would definitely rate it 5/5! I always look forward to eating that when I go to the city. But today when I visited the lady recognised and remembered me (surprisingly) and she told me they were closing down! Which is so so sad. She asked if I’d like to leave my contact details as they are going to open somewhere else and I gladly did, since this is my favourite place to eat!

Complementary black sesame icecream (also my fav)

On the way to Sussex, there was a store offering free iced tea, so as people do, we went in to get some. The set up was so cute but the taste… it was, to be frank, disgusting. It tasted like water with some cinnamon!

After lunch, we decided to buy some cream puffs (this shop often has a looong line, but today there was barely a line so we decided to try it – it was my first time having them and they were DELICIOUS).

Lastly, we had EasyWay since we were thirsty, but I soon remembered why I stopped buying EasyWay… I ordered a mango frappe with pearls, but it literally came half liquid and tasted like plain sugar. Was not impressed, the only good part was the pearls.

Some Christmas decorations we saw as we walked around the shops and outside:

Ps. Three days until Christmas! Ahhhh, hope you all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! x
