Hello from Australia!
It feels like we’ve been here forever yet I never want to leave.
Some quick restaurant impressions: The Aylesbury is a happening new gastropub/wine bar with terrific food and atmosphere. Try the cold-smoked kingfish with freeze dried olives (above) and the duck. And the bread is amazing.
Right nearby is the fusion Seamstress where I got totally carried away tasting everything! The pork neck was the favorite, by far. The gingery scallops were pretty great too. Overall, it’s definitely a nice destination for a foodie.
Yay, can’t wait to see more.
Oooh, Australia!! Have tons of fun 🙂 can’t wait to hear all about your culinary adventures 🙂
Thanks, Anne!
Lucky! Hopefully you’re getting to see some of the Australian Open.
That is mostly what I’m doing here haha:). I’m a huge tennis fan!
Oh my god, you’re in melbourne?! Go visit Jamie Oliver’s Fifteen restaurant. I’ve heart it’s super good… 🙂
Oooh will have to look it up, thanks:)
Ps I think it closed!
P.S. Just buzzing in to tell you that you’ve been tagged 🙂
That’s such a shame… I never new it was closed… Oh darn. I guess you’ve got so many other places you can go! 🙂
The kingfish looks amazing – delicate, simple flavors – freeze-dried olives – mmm! What kind of flowers?
They looked like arugula flowers and hyssops.
