Food Glorious Food

I'm Obessessed !!!!..... with FOOD!!!

Dave does not approve of me taking pictures of food...
He has observed that everytime we go out, I'm always buying some kind of food home.. (groceries that is, look if u want a yummy dinner, I've got to get nice ingredients)

He has observed that even after a very satisfying dinner, I'm still looking at some restaurant menu on the window pane musing to him "Hmmm, maybe we can try here next time.."

He has a terrible phobia of me flashing me out my camera and going WAAAITTT.. *snap*snap* Ok you can eat now


LAST Night.. quite ultimate, we were having a deep conversation about life, I was posing him a question
"Do u think this is all to life, have you thought God will lead you somewhere to do missions, set-up an orphanage, plant a church.. u know like the many stories we've heard.. Or do you think life is just working, making money.. buying food??"
DRATS!~! "BUYING F0od...." ok he almost choked, laughing in his hyperventilating type of laugh that Pet attests to and tries to imitate...
"Haha so you think buying food ranks real high on your list of things in life u need to do.. "
urrrr.... lost of words so I resort to violence to strangle him...

Anywayz...since I haven't posted my food pictures for a while.. here they are, but I've attempted to make it more interactive this time.. there's people in the pictures!









Spanish baked eggs with tomato confit, capsicum, oregano and chorizo



Haloumi cheese, pomegranate, watercress, shaved fennel, roast eschallots Pumpkin pancake with confit of duck leg and mixed leaf salad

And of course topped of with fantastic book kitchen coffee..


Book kitchen is my ideal cafe, uses mostly organic and free-range products set in a warehouse like building stocked with heaps of FOOD BOOKS... muhahaa.. chai's pretty good here too. Pet and I checked out Sean Moran's latest book.

Introducing....
Little Stick: Sue Lynus the Skinniest, my food buddy

October was good food month in Sydney and we ventured out one weekday lunch time for the $35 "Let's do lunch" special feature a poshy indian restaurant near darling habour Zaaffran.

Lobster and prawns glazed in a clay oven, mesclun, spiced potato wedges, mint chutney, bettroot raita and mushroom nann Topped off with a Brown Brothers' Pinot Grigio 2005 or James Squire Amber Ale.

Mmm after that we were so stuffed that by 7pm when we wanted to celebrate BB's birthday in newtown we couldn't eat... Sue lyn cannot eat?!?!?!

This week we were planning to venture out to King's Cross to hunt for Little Penang reputated M'sian food place for Har Mee... but me too tired after work so I introduced her to Thai on Wok in Glebe where we had Tom Yum Goong, Yellow curry and Pumpkin with swiss brown mushrooms, snow peas and egg gravy with pork.
