What I ate today - the food thread

Back at Tziki Bar in Forest Glen today. A plate of lamb ribs each with a shared roast cauliflower salad. A glass of Sav Blanc for Mrsdrron and a pint of an IPA from the brewery next door for me

Maybe a good place for a Sunny Coast AFF meet up.

Sunday Roast - Beef with Yorkshire pud  and Roast Chicken with veggies, not bad for $30. Brussels Sprouts were delicious !

Last night I was in Brisbane CBD to give moral support to a friend going through a massive mediation session with his Solicitor & Barrister today.

We went to a little Vietnamese restaurant in Burnett Lane, central CBD:

Pork & Prawn Rolls for entree;

He had a Pho and I had Crispy Skin Chicken for mains. Forgot to take photos of both as we were engrossed in eating and confusing the locals eating by speaking in Japanese (friend is fluent):
 
Lunch on Tuesday at Customs House Brisbane:

Loved the fact that it was local Qld produce.

Don’t often eat Quail, it was beautifully cooked and I’d have sucked the bones if I’d been at a street vendor.

Oh my gosh the Eye Fillet was the bomb. Better cooked than the quail. Jus was sublime. Would have liked some vegetables

Lunch at Supernormal Brisbane (never been here before, building on the river near Customs House).

This tuna below was delightful - light, tasty - never had with Orange before but would again and again. Nothing left of the 2 plates after my table of 4 finished (lucky we weren’t a table of 8 as most were)

Another stunning dish. Scraped clean again.

Pulled off the bone with ease. I was in heaven

Polished my dessert off and had a one-on-one with guest speaker after the event where we finished off the desserts left on the tables (they’d been paid for, hate seeing good food go to waste).

By far the best multi small plate meal I’ve had this year.
