And the rest of very Lebanese

I can't decide. Is it classic Lebanese with an Australian twist or Australian with a Lebanese twist?

Borrowed pilot nephew for Mother's Day dinner as Flyfrequently offspring were busy surfing and running off to the circus (Cirque de Soliel!)

Cheap and cheerful in Southbank - this was the place I mentioned in December @AustraliaPoochie

Nasi Goreng

Peppered beef

Seafood Laksa

Forgot pic of veggies in garlic sauce.

Very pleasant evening

J meal on China Airlines yesterday. I had pre-ordered the butter chicken. All very nice except for some poor garlic bread





The canapes looked and tasted so nice that I had scoffed the first two before remembering to take a photo.

Croque Monsieur at Air Canada Lounge - Calgary last week

Scallop pies from an Autumn pie trail festival in New Norfolk, Tas a few weeks back. Love the map crust. Pie was tasty but quite stingy on the scallops.

I miss my scallop pies. I can get them at Banjos but although OK they are not the best.

What I ate yesterday at a local Cafe catchup with former workmates - sadly these "soft" scrambled eggs were on a par with some J breakfasts I've had, more like an omelette

So glad Surfer Flyfrequently lives around the corner - she did a quick dash to the local Chinese Cafe for some Wonton Soup - all I feel like after testing +ve this morning.

Terroir in Auburn is sadly closing down so went up for a farewell dinner. Food and service was excellent as always

They replaced chicken for me instead of the mullet.
Chickpea churros complimentary

Looks more pureed than smashed ...

While I had a lovely gorganzola.
