Getaway Holidays - Mornington Peninsula Part 1

We just come back from our little getaway holiday and we went to explore Mornington Peninsula.


It was pretty spontaneous on us, we were like " Honey!, let`s go a short holiday and away this city life, is time to get some fresh air to 'charged our battery'. LOLOL

So, we just pop on computer and start to do research about Mornington Peninsula. The easiest way is search for "i" stand for "Information Centre" for visitor / tourist.




Once we reach Information centre and we start plan our journey!

How`s simple is that!!!!!!



Hello~~~ Mornington Peninsula.

Now we at Dromana beach woohooo~~~

If you on holidays, MUST grab this booklet and is FREE for tourist.




The Information centre just located at Dromana town.

We gonna travel all over the places! How`s exciting!!


Wine anyone?????? tooooo many of them to visit so we skip.

Next, Beach time!!!!



Dromana beach.

Before we hit to next destination we visit around local town Dromana.

It was beautiful little town, so peaceful, and you will see people jogging, fishing, walk the dogs , kids play around playground, picnic, local people were really friendly and will say 'hello' when you walk pass, unlike some country -_-'




It was beautiful day and nicely warm but the wind a bit chill.



omg,..someone leave me!!! wait for me >.<"

okay,..next we went to Mornington Peninsula Chocolate factory @ Flinder but it was closed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! damn! otherwise I can buy some chocolates for everyone as souvenir T_T. Okay, never mind it will be NEXT TIME ehheeheheheh

Gyoza aka Dumpling

This is my second time make Gyoza. However, I`m still not as good as those at market or restuarant. But, my technique getting better for wrapping the gyoza. I guess more practice will get better next time.

Basically, it very easy to make Gyoza and mostly people will use pork mince instead chicken or beef.

As for ingredients, I used the following;




  1. Pork mince
  2. Spring onion
  3. Onion
  4. Carrot
  5. Shiitake Mushroom
  6. Dried Shrimp
  7. Chinese cabbage
  8. Soy Sauce
  9. Sesame oil
  10. Chinese wine
  11. Salt





As for gyoza wrap it can easily purchase from market.

The following is the step and teach you how to wrap gyoza which I learn from internet.



took it from internet.

Just go to google and you can easily find about making gyoza.





Yaaaaaaaaaa! I`m getting better now wrapping the gyoza compare to last time >_<" omg so ugly! Now, I need to learn how to grilled those gyoza. I still dont know how they can make it so nice like those restaurant!





>_<" kind of ugly. I guess need more practice. Anyway just me & Ray gonna eat it, is not like I`m gonna share it with friends or neighbour as gift. Well, Ray prefer grilled instead steamed.





I prefer steamed one because less oily. All you need is placed bake paper and wipe a little oil on it before you put gyoza on top.

But, it doesn't matter because I used olive oil for grilled the gyoza and cooking purpose which much healthier.
