Mum can't wait for me to go back to SYD and bring along daughter for visit. Christmas has always been special and this year we visited SYD 2 weeks early as airfares today and tomorrow have been ridiculously high for quite some time. $1000+ return for 2 people BNE-SYD return is taking the piss.

Anyway mum misses BBQs and we had Christmas BBQ 2 weeks early. Never a shortage of food.

Lovely breakfast food. Do they do Roti Canai as well? I guess the Kaya Toast and (very) soft boiled egg set is more of a Malaysia/Singapore favourite?

 

[drron]

Just proper rice,naan and mango chutney of which I have a good helping.

Wood fired pizza tonight, preparing the oven to bake some sourdough in the morning followed by roasting a pork butt for Christmas lunch

Cradle Mountain Wilderness Village Hellyers Restaurant for lunch and the most amazing chocolate dessert I can ever recall





Turkey with hazelnut


Confit trout with beetroot risotto



Choc brulee tart was amazing!

Christmas lunch at breakfast. Part of the breakfast buffet at the Marriott Mayfair this morning. Roast turkey with veggies and pork and apple sauce. Only problem they had a pepper sauce for the turkey.



And a Thai idea for Christmas cake instead of pastries.

Freeze dried raspberries?

Fresh raspberries on the bush honey and vanilla cream but dried scattered on the plate.
