Merry xmas to all, especially ones working over holiday period.

Sounds a bit like me... working today 12-8.30pm, would not be so bad except for the early start tomorrow so its home, have a drink and then off to bed for me.

I stated the day with Christmas lunch at 10.30am, garlic prawns with salad and bread and water, then when I got to work it has been more like a see-food-diet. As we all bring in a plate (or 10), the staff room has been overflowing with food and you just eat as you go along and when you can. I have had seafood, chicken, ham, olives, crackers, bread, dips, chips, potato salad, cakes, chocolate, coffee, salad, pavlova, fruit... think I am in a food coma now. Curing it with my whiskey now that I have come home

Merry Christmas to you all, hope you enjoyed the holidays

Last night. Indian meal at upmarket restaurant in Singapore.

No pics, but dined at Tetsuya's Restaurant in Sydney last night. It was amazing, and it certainly still "has it". The menu was seafood focused, and very well matched to the wines. I will try to post a pic of the take home menu.

I was with an American colleague who was rather chatty with the wait staff and asked lots of questions, which were always politely answered.

Definitely one of the best fine dining experiences in Sydney.

Lovely family that run it too. Not that I needed it when growing up here but it is great to see more food options on the NW coast.
