Footy
I missed calls and texts from Stephen (he said there were many, I reckon there was only one) who was calling to see if I wanted to go to the footy tonight and see the penguins (It’s actually the pies, magpies, but it’s so much fun call them penguins and seeing the look on his [...]
What a week so far…
I just want to point out what a fantastic week I’ve had so far and what an amazing variety of great food I’ve been lucky to eat. I’m trying to think if this is normal? Hmmm I think it might be…
Grill’d
Now I’m gonna slag them off and it’s not really because of bad food, it’s more to do with the fact that I chose the wrong burger!
I chose this thing with beef, fried egg, bacon… ick… dripping with fat and all that yuk…
Normally I have the Baa Baa Burger, a reasonably sized lamb burger.
But it’s [...]
The Toasted Sandwich
Now, New Zealand and Australia are very similar. We are practically the same. But there are somethings that are just different!
New Zealand is tecnologically advanced and Australia is struggling with the whole EFTPOS thing… The people in Australia are grenerally better looking… Australian’s say hey and Kiwi’s say aye… New Zealand Cadbury chocolate is much [...]
The Horn – Ethiopian
Now before you say anything, I’m gonna have to say that all those Ethiopian cook book jokes that you know may as well be thrown out!
Nugget’s out of town, so It’s my job to take up the husbandly duties and make sure that Kat is sufficently entertained.
Kat knew these ppl who knew these ppl who [...]
Roti anyone?
‘Hey Namita, feel like roti?’
We roped in Glenn and were off…
We found Roundhouse Roti on Gertrude Street months ago… I was on a cleansing diet at the time and stood salivating at the window wishing I could eat roti, but having to deny myself that pleasure due to the cleanse… God knows why I do [...]
Atomica – The best coffee in Melbourne!
Now I am a self proclaimed coffee snob, well actually my friends call me that more than use it to describe myself, so who am I to argue…
In my humble (stop coughing) opinion I think that Atomica make the best coffee in Melbourne. If you think someoneelse makes better coffee let me know and I [...]
Borsch, Vodka & Tears
Well… Melinda wandered into the area where I sit this afternoon and asked ‘What are you doing tonight…?’ Well it doesn’t take much to get me to go out and I do love to eat and drink out, so I said ‘hey… Let’s do something…’
We decided that we would go somewhere we hadn’t been for [...]
Summer Lunch
The weather here at the moment is just fantastic, my shoes needed some repairs so using my lunch productively I walked down to Smith St and enjoyed the sun.
I bought two California rolls, long ones, not the sliced up versions. Usually I get different kinds but the Avocado and Prawn ones looked and sounded so [...]
A bowl of museli
I’m bored of this museli, I need to get some fresh fruit to add to it.
The best museli I’ve had I got in New Zealand. It was organic, had no perservatives and tasted fantastic. I always get it when ever I go back home. I wish I could find it here.
