Pffft.. another day, another wine or two while staring at them thar hills .

Them thar volcanic hills. So I had a suitable desert at lunch.



Oh, the main, salmon on a quinoa salad ( sideways).



This is was at the Salentein winery, where it's harvest time

You see I was salivating so much I couldn't even speak English - I did mean to say I just had a toasted ham and cheese sandwich or a Croque Monsieur

Can I add the awesomeness of the Delta dessert trolley?

Chocolate brownie and cherry or vanilla ice cream with choice of 4 toppings, including crushed cookies.

I stayed awake on a red eye just for this and it was worth it.

This was our dinner at the Pura Vida Hotel in Alajuela (4 kms from SJO Airport) made by Nhi who is a culinary genius.

Eggplant for entree

Tilapia fish curry infused with lemongrass

Dessert was a fabulous lemon concoction with lemon granita & homemade crystallised ginger

 

[OZDUCK]

We are just back from 8 days in Kl. We were taken to a Macanese restaurant - specialising in food from Macao. A lot of it, fairly obviously, had Portuguese derivations.

This was Apricot Chicken

 

[Pushka]

At my new favourite cafe - Almost French on Swan St just a five minute walk from the new apartment.



Mick Malthouse (AFL coach) also a fan it seems.

Twin Smokers BBQ in Atlanta. I got the pork (below) but hubby had amazing Beef brisket.

Soooooo good!

Te Motu Waiheke island

Hilton lax lounge offering is bbq pork and lobster stuffed potato skins and they are really, really good!

Sad I'm leaving to go out for dinner... Wonder if they would bring the left over pork to our room.

Chose this restaurant in Rotorua because I loved the name but food was excellent- sadly I forgot to take photos of the food





Sorry but can't get the glass around the right way
