G'day. If you're new here, and you are interested in the Melbourne food and drink scene you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or the email newsletter below. Thanks for visiting and enjoy eating and drinking in Melbourne. Cheers.
It’s a healthy breakfast that sees in the new year. Nearly tasteless $10 a punnet strawberries, diced melon and banana and passion fruit smothered with live yoghurt and topped with a lone home grown strawberry. Remarkably I am not hungover although I am pretty cranky.
So what’s in store?
- Jak is in posession of Jill Dupleix’s Lighten Up and plans to give me the choice between sausages and beer.
- In return I’m waging war on the petit bourgeois.
- Specifically it’s war against place mats and coasters.The former are a waste of time. The latter, topped with an unbalanced misplaced wine glass, is an accident waiting to happen.
- I write an amusing book about curry that comes with a packet of moist wipes but nobody wants to publish it.
- Economic boom turns to recession. Freelance journalists turn to roasting pet dogs as a means of survival.- The cat is working tricks on Grey St.
- Instead of drinking fewer bottles of better wine I’m drinking more cheap casks.
- In desperation I auction ads on this blog on eBay (having already sold all my possessions).
- Finally, I introduce a new blog template. Everything goes a bit wonky in coming weeks.
- In early March Four food bloggers at a Melbourne Food Festival panel on blogs are trampled by an angry crowd of journalists and chefs.
- Wordpress is giving me a hard time and doing weird stuff and losing formatting. Fifth save coming up…
Happy new year everyone. I guess it’s business as usual here.

I think we need to bandy some blogging support before the Food and Wine festival to lessen the impact of the trampling… or worse still everyone chooses to see another panel on at the same time and nobody cares what we say!

Nothing wrong with coasters - they protect many a good tabletop. The cat is NOT turning tricks on Grey St - he’s down on Greeves St where he can make more money!
Jack, maybe we can stack the audience.
Jak, he’d never cross that busy road.
