Palm Beach food & farmers’ market
This local produce market has been one of the highlights of my 2012 Australian holiday so far. My mum has been coming here for years, but after all the times I’ve visited back home, this is the first time I made the effort to go myself. It has made me so envious of the availability of delicious produce. Not only is there fresh local fruits and vegetables, but potted herbs, eggs, at least three different bakeries, flowers, and many stalls just selling the one thing they’ve got – local avocados, mushrooms or tomatoes.
Philly sandwich pilgrimage
Check it out – what a thing of beauty!
After seeing this on TV last night, by this morning I am already looking up Amtrak fares to Philadelphia… and all for a sandwich! The roast pork and broccoli rabe sandwich at DiNic’s in the Reading Market Terminal.
Real Food market at Southbank
From today Friday 5 November, through to Sunday 7th, the Real Food Market decends on London’s Southbank. La Fromagerie will be serving up delicious cheeses (usually reserved for visitors to Marylebone), along with 40 other producers including the Flour Power City Bakery for great brownies and Woodward Farm for free-range beef and eggs.
The London Particular
Another reason to be happy about my recent move to the South East of London – the London Particular. I read about this on the lovely Scrambling Eggs blog, and I can see it becoming a brunch favourite. Nice!
three kisses for Zurich!
This weekend I visited Zurich for the first time, and I’ve instantly fallen in love for the city. It does help that it was an unusually sunny and beautiful 27c on both days, but still – the place is gorgeous in every way. It’s noticeably lacking in hawkers, rubbish and unsavory humans; instead teeming with happy types, cute little independently-owned cafes and bars and lush with trees and THAT lake.It was perfect for what I love to do most – eat, wander, drink, chat, nap… repeat as desired.
Cherry tomato bomb!
Spring has truly sprung in London. There are daffodils everywhere. It’s still light when I finish work. I’ve walked through Regents Park to work and I’m sweating when I get there. I’m starting to regret all those dark chocolate digestives…
