Now, this is the part where I pretend to be listening

Part 3

Back to blogging about Perth after the previous post which made my sister cry when she saw it. Doesn't matter, because I still give her shit by doing the chocolate-smeared expression every time I see her. I know, best older brother ever.

Anyway, this is Fremantle Port, where there are as many boats and seagulls as dumb Asian tourists who expect super excellent seafood just because the place's by the sea.

The place was honestly quite beautiful because of how clean the sea is despite the fact that there are boats all over the place. If the port was placed in Singapore however, the water will be filled with used tissue paper, styrofoam boxes and flattened Coca-Cola cans because we are idiots.

In fact, Jules was considering moving back to the sea because of how clean it looked. She has adjusted well to living on land since moving here a decade ago; her flippers evolved into working limbs and her blow hole somehow migrating its way onto her face, becoming nostrils.

Okay, enough talk about sea mammals. This is the Fish & Chips I ordered for $13AUD but the only thing worth writing home about was the freshness of the fish. And maybe the thickness of the fries but then again, ALL the fries I ate in Australia (and I ate quite a bit of them, trust me) were equally thick, they were probably bought frozen from K-Mart.

Jules ordered the Grilled Garfish and Tits, which was quite a bit better than what I bought. I remember the grilling adding an layer of sweetness to the already delicious garfish meat. What a mistake it was, not listening to her when it comes to ordering fish. I mean, she would know which fish tastes the best, wouldn't she?

The REAL reason why I traveled to Perth! But fuck, it was quite disappointing because of how small they were but hey, at least they were fresh. By the way, I never used the sweet chili sauce because I think it's quite a waste to eat fresh raw oysters with such an overly powerful condiment. I'm the fucking connoisseur in fine dining, bitch.

The whole spread, which cost a little too much for how it tasted but I would like to think that I paid for the great weather and sea breeze as well. And the sight of seagulls patiently waiting for you to finish before burying their dumb heads into your food.

This was taken during the meal and I think she was saying something like "Heh heh, food". While not very pleasing to look at, this expression does lend well to making images of food look more tempting. Let's see how the face can be applied.

See? The meal looks like it's worth the price now.

She's so happy, you might think that it's a plate of grilled mermaid.

Mmm mmm.

Despite my poor attempt at veiling this post's purpose of insulting Jules, I would still like to comment on how great of a girlfriend she is and I appreciate her being in my life.
