Comments on: SMH Good Food and Wine Show Sydney 2007 http://www.notquitenigella.com/2007/10/27/smh-good-food-and-wine-show-sydney-2007/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

I really wanted to try the Bather's tart, lucky you! Hi jenjen-That’s a great idea to pre-book the tickets, I’ll definitely do that next year. I really wanted to try the Bather’s tart, lucky you!

I know what you mean with the crowd. It was crazy. This year I learned my lesson and actually pre-booked my tickets and got there at just before 12. Although even by then, the place was already packed. It's always worth it though. Great pics. I know what you mean with the crowd. It was crazy.

It felt a bit like "The Amazing Race: Food Edition" :lol: Hi Jobe-I had visions of having all of these coupons that were useless at 2pm so we’d rush from stall to stall.

They did indeed. Granted a lot of stalls had run out of food by then/soon after, but those that still had stuff were still going at about 3 when I left. I guess the 2pm finish was only a guess so the stalls knew how much food to bring. “Did they serve food after 2pm?”

The crowds are always crazy. In the past I've usually made it a point to arrive at 11.30am, get photos and suss out the menus and then make a mad dash at midday. You did well all things considered!

Did they serve food after 2pm? I was absorbed in our food by then. Hi blythe-choosing was rather difficult and it was excellent value! You should definitely try and schedule a visit here for October next year as its Good Food month which means good food/events for the whole of October.
