I havent posted in a while!

I know this, im working way too much and not taking enough pictures of food.
I will soon.
I promise.

OBSESSED

OK so this has nothing to do with food... wait actually considering im talking vampires we technically are food.
I think im in love with Eric from True Blood, not just TV crush in love either, stalk him and keep him in my basement in love.
Oh dear.
I had no massive attachment to him until I read the books (all 9 books in 2 weeks does this show how obsessed I am?), now its a completely different story.
I have issues im pretty sure.
Tell me im crazy, I dont even like blonds!!

Visitors a plenty!

I have been spoilt with friends and favourites visiting me.
Ill save the commentry and just give you the photos!

Lunch with the Doctor

Ive been sick, like proper sick but not dying or anything (just in case you were all going to send me flowers and money) so Dr. Jay picked me up and we went to lunch a few weeks ago.

I cant for the life of me remember what the pub was call, The Prince something on Victoria Street, Abbotsford.
Anyway... it was delicious food and naturally Jay had a 2 for 1 voucher so it was also a bargin.

One of the high(low)-lights to the meal was that our waiter was lacking any kind of intelligence and whilst that would normally make me pretty angry, I couldnt do anything but laugh.
When I asked if they could possibly do the scallops as a main instead of an entree I was informed that they only came in one size and it was this big (demonstrates the size of a scallop), so I gave up and had the Barramundi... how can you argue with that?

Mine was delicious and the skin was crispy which is the absolute most!
Jay had the steak special... i wont even go into what our waiter had to say about that!

Happy Marriage Day

Our flatmates got married on the weekend, it was beautiful, i being me cried like a baby.
Jessie walked down the aisle to November Rain (it pretty much sold me to the fact that I think she is super rad) and looked stunning whilst the dashing groom posed at the alter.
We then all got drunk and had a house party... all in all sucessful day I would think!

Oyster on Little Bourke

It was time again for Secret Surprise Friday with Miss Sammy.
This time I took her too Oyster which has the most amaing lay out EVER.
It feels like a old New York loft, not that I have been to one but I imagine this would be the case.
Morgan got the night off work so he came along too (yay)



Morgan ordered the Vegtarian Gnocchi and it stole the show over the seafood... it was like magic!


I had the 3 Cheese Gratin Oysters which were so delicious


And Miss Sammy had the Barramundi, she enjoyed this thoroughly


We also had the loveliest waitress who was more than accommodating and really friendly which you dont often find in more expensive places.
Ill definitely go back!

Borsch Vodka & Tears

While Bee and Nelly where here we did a little tour to the 'other' side of town, which has probably happened about 4 times sinece I moved here.
So after our little walk around St Kilda and Chapel Street, Bee desperately wanted to go tob this restaurant/bar... so we went.
It was amazing!
AND ALL THE VODKA... I suggested that I should be their taster, they didnt buy it but I might keep trying.

Nelly had the honey vodka prawns which I didnt take a photo of because of the vodka probably.
Bee had the russian style chicken stroganoff which looked delicious

Morgan and I shared the potato cakes and potato dumplings, both with a sour cream-ish sauce, they were fucking delightful.


There were martini's drank, also a lot of vodka and other goodies.
Im going back the first chance I get.

Presents!

I bought a present for myself.
Is that even a present?
Anyway....
They arrived yesterday and boyfriend is going to pick them up for me and bring them at lunch, rad times!

Aren't they pretty?
I heart Karen Walker

I went to the Napier again...

It was bolts.
You know what made it even better?
The fact that I was with BEE AND NELLY.
They love me. I love them. I thought marriage might work but apparently thats bigamy.
Whatevs.

PS Morgan I dont love them like THAT

So...
to the food!
Nelly ate the motherfucking Bogan burger. The only other person I have seen eat the bogan burger is Gustav, and well thats Gustav so you know he does all kinds of awesome things
Anyway this thing is massive just look at it.


Bee had the Fish and Chips, they looked tasty


And me, I had the seafood chowder because all I had done all day was eat.


This is us!

Weekend away at the beach house

We went to the beach house on the weekend for some much needed R&R... oh and eating the biggest amount of food possible. Safe to say we all gained some kgs.

Knee Update

So apparently I was wrong about the floating cartlidge... I pulled the lateral ligament is my knee instead.
Its good in the way that I dont need surgery but bad in the way that im meant to do very little for the next 6 weeks.
Im an idiot in short and really need to stay the hell away from crates!

Lunch at The Napier

A few weeks ago I met Morgan and Mike at the Napier for some delicious lunch before a school skate.

I had the Mushroom Wellington with Mash and Beans, it was delightful


Morgan had the Red Lentil Pie with other stuff... it was a bit curry for my liking but he enjoyed it


And Mike had the Three Type Bangers and Mash which he said was excellent!


All round delicious meals, that Napier is consistantly damn good and they have the second best pool table in Fitzroy.

That's all

Its been a long time, shouldnt have left you...

So, ive been out of action for a bit.
I might have been playing crate soccer, got the crate stuck on my foot, fallen and torn the cartlidge in my knee.
I might have done that.

Unlucky for me I now have floating cartlidge in my knee.

YIPPEE

BEST SECRET SATURDAY SURPRISE EVER!

So im about 3 million weeks too late with this post and im sure that anyone that I have actually spoken to would know about this in intimate detail but im going to post it anyway...

Sammy (one of the best people ever) took me on a secret surprise saturday date and she took me too NOBU!
So I was a little bit too excited and forgot to take photos of some things but this is what we ate...

Nobu style Salmon Sashimi

The a broc salad and also a lobster salad with lemon dressing, Sammy didnt like the lobster one, I think mainly because of the lemon, it was overpowering!

I forgot to take a photo of our favourite the soft shell crab...
But then we had their famous dish, the black cod in miso which was incredible!!!

And then the sushi...


They recommended that we have 7 sharing dishes between the two of us and thinking they would be small we did just that, by the time our sushi came we were so full that we could even eat it!
Nobu is my most favourite at the moment.

THANKS SAMMY YOUR THE BEST SURPRISE GIVER EVER!

Dinner at the Union

We love the Union, its our local... but we haven't eaten there is a long time.
So Saturday was all cold and stuff and we decided a fire and a pool table were the key ingredients to a good meal!

We ate;
Cauliflower Soup (it was AMAZING)
Veggie Burger and
Veggie Lasagne with mash instead of chips



While we were waiting we got a little creative with our napkins...
perhaps you can tell us what is there?
