WLG – Wellington pop up restaurant

Have you heard about the Wellington pop up restaurant? In Melbourne for two weeks only, it’s a little taste of Wellington, New Zealand, in the form of a three course meal. As soon as the tickets were released, I pounced on them and booked a table. Why was I so keen? Well, as long time [...]

Cruising: the food

In my previous cruise post, I mentioned that some of the food was good and some of it was terrible. Mostly it was okay. But considering the limitations of cooking on a massive ship for almost 1800 passengers and 800 crew, I think generally the chefs did a good job. As an aside, my only [...]

Cruising

Thanks to Be @ Home for featuring me in one of their Best of the Web posts! As mentioned in a couple of previous posts, I was on a boat! Bro and I spent 10 nights on a cruise to New Caledonia with mum and dad – ooh first family holiday in… 10? 15 years? (Yes, [...]

Japan: markets

I’ll post the winners of the Lord of the Fries vouchers tomorrow night! This post is merely photos from a couple of markets when we visited Japan in 2009. I forget exactly which ones now, but there was one in Osaka, and one in Kyoto. I quite like seeing the difference between these photos and [...]

UK: Borough Market

To market, to market…. Remember that Alastair and I went to the UK last year in September? No? Well, that’s because it felt like a million years ago! I barely remember it myself!

Din Tai Fung, Sydney

Alastair and I were in Sydney in March to hang out in the Harbour and watch his cousin compete in an 18-foot skiff regatta, like we did last year. Coincidentally Penny and her Mister were also in town so we arranged to meet up for lunch at Din Tai Fung.

Nelson, NZ

Some pictures from our trip to Nelson over Australia Day (as mentioned briefly in the Cafe Vue post). Only a little bit of food content here folks, but there is a cute cat photo. That doesn’t grab your fancy? Well, there’s also numerous shots of beer. Is that better? Alastair and I had a lovely, [...]

Singapore: MOS Burger

This is a rewind to our UK trip last year – that I never got around to properly writing up! So, it’s fairly apparent from this blog that I like food. I like all kinds of food. I like the occasional super duper crazy expensive high end dining, and I also like the occasional trashy [...]
