Early morning into lunch on Thursday morning and out from the media preview screening of Tales from Earthsea at the Dendy Newtown with Ryano,, lunch was on stomach.

Along King Street, it's a good sort and variety if Thai and Indian are the flavour on the tongue. And for the money's worth, something affordable during the lunch period.

One stop not that far from Dendy Cinemas is Newtown Thai. Six dollars a plate and it's quite the menu to choose from. Sure, most of it is stir fried, but them's the deals in Thai food. If you don't like stir fry, you don't like flash fry, which is the same thing and rambling moot.



Stir fried garlic and pepper with rice and chicken. Clean and quick and it's a nice tasty lunch to have one day, any day, but not so many days in a row that the others on the menu miss out.

Tales from Earthsea is a beautiful and warm film. Gorgeous really, nothing less to be expected from Studio Ghibli.
