We are doing a family day trip to Hobart today to attend "The Taste" festival today.  Mmmm, Tasmanian produce.  I'm looking forward to sampling food from all over the state; seafood (oysters and scallops), vegetables, cheeses, beef, wallaby; all put into magnificent dishes with different themes.  Last time I sampled Ethiopian, Indian, Japanese, Malaysian and French.

Here is the website:

The Taste of Tasmania

Forever will be, FatBoy.

Does wallaby count as jumping bacon.......

[Phil №❶]

Nothing, can substitute for BACON.

Have fun Jamie.. Haven't been there, hope to get there some day.. 

[FatBoy]

WHAT, NO BACON  

Oh, there was bacon there, Phil!!

We are back, left just before the storm hit.  Started off with a fried oyster roll (delicious), then we tried a pulled pork taco, followed by tempura mushrooms, then seafood paella, finished with icecream.  All washed down with a cider from Franks.

Off to have a sleep now.

I just had a choc shake at Wendy's, for lunch

 

[FatBoy]

Oh, the kids had fresh raspberries in dark chocolate mousse for desert.  That was very nice too!!

[Dazzler]

Sounds great Jamie, best I've had today was a big slice of Pavlova! Yum..

[FatBoy]

Sorry, I forgot, the eldest boy had crumbed blue eye trevalla and chips as well.

That would have been a nice day out Jamie

Last night the GF cooked me a crusted roast lamb loin done two ways with truffle jus - parsnip puree and roasted then pan seared gnocchi an asparagus, it was beautiful

[FatBoy]

I love roast lamb!!  It sounds delicious!!

It was very delicious

We like going to the food festivals as well, I'm amazed how she remembers a dish after one tasting an then replicates them at home for me ( good for me as I cant cook for s""t ), with her Malaysian/Indian heritage she does some mean curries too

If I had a girlfriend like that I'd show her some quality porn... 

Been there done that... she's a quick learner

I normally have a sleep after a pulled pork taco too, Jamie.
