I can't believe how long it is since we last posted! That's not to say we haven't been busy cooking and eating; in fact, it's because we've been soooo busy cooking and eating that we haven't posted. I'll have to find time to do a re-cap of our gastronomic adventures over the past 12 months when I can, because at the moment our attention is focussed on something very important - a gluttons weekend in Melbourne.
No, dear readers, this is not something that you can call your travel agency and get them to book you a seat for. This is something that we've dreamed up for ourselves. We've done our research, read the reviews, asked our friends, remembered favourite cookbook authors, and tried to think of some of the stuff that we wouldn't ordinarily treat ourselves to at home. We've created ourselves a very dedicated schedule of food. Not coincidentally, this weekend is also the "Taste of Melbourne" festival.
For those interested, here's a run down of our eating schedule for the next few days:
Restaurant | Cuisine | ||
---|---|---|---|
Thursday | Dinner | MoMo | Middle Eastern |
Friday | Breakfast | Glicks | Kosher |
Lunch | Taste Festival | Everything? | |
Dinner | Scopri | ||
Saturday | Breakfast | Sweethearts | Modern Australian |
Lunch | Oriental Tea House | Yum Cha & Tea House | |
Dinner | Aux Batifolles | French Bistro | |
Sunday | Breakfast | Balzari | Italian/European |
Lunch | MoVida | Spanish Tapas | |
Dinner | Quanjude | Asian |
There are probably a bunch of other, better restaurants out there in the world of Melbourne food, but we'll be sure to let you know what we think of these ones...
