Eating adventure

A weekend eating adventure in Brisbane

Posted by Gary

Some might say every weekend is an eating adventure for me

I spent the weekend in Brisbane to visit my parents and daughters. This week Miss13 becomes Miss14!

Saturday morning we enjoyed breakfast at Groove Train Chermside. I enjoyed the granola.

For lunch Miss19 and I made Mum and Dad a simple salad for lunch.

I taught Miss19 how to extract Pomegranate arils

For dinner we celebrated soon to be Miss14’s birthday at Hog’s breath cafe. I had a lite cut prime rib with avocado and a side of calamari to enjoy a surf and turf or reef and beef meal

After the main meal we came home and enjoyed Mum’s beetroot chocolate cake. Yes this was made with a large tin of beetroot. No taste of vinegar or beetroot at all.
