[...] I cannot tell you how disconcerting it is falling asleep at 4am while the sun is shining. It affords me little sleep and I dream some very bizarre dreams that night although it may have been the results of a grease overload via Jaskan Grilli’s Kannibal hot dog. [...]

Hi Maria T-Hehe yes it is a vegetarian’s worst nightmare, in fact the only thing vaguely vegetable is the tomato sauce!

Thanks! It’s “Marina” from Mecca Cosmetica’s Winter collection

Hi Tuulikki-I’m sure it happens everywhere although I think australian bus drivers are more likely to yell at the passengers-I’ve seen them do that plenty of times!

Hi Maria-Hehe it sure could, at least 3 burgers I should think! It was rather expensive though, perhaps they figure drunk people don’t really notice?

Hi grace-I blame the major jetlag for why I was able to order it without hesitation It was really weird, whatever time you went to bed, it still was light, even when the sun went down, it was like twilight!

Hi SydneyGal-Hehe anything for my blog!

My arteries are hardening just looking at the photos. Thank god we’ve got you Lorraine - you put yourself (and your cardiac health) on the line so we can safely experience the vicarious thrills of the Kannibal.

wow, that’s a fierce sandwich. i’m not sure i could (or would try to) conquer it! and i’ve never been in a location where the sun is only down for 4 hours–that would be so surreal!

Gosh, perfect hangover food! Or buy more buns & this filling could stretch to several burgers I’m thinking 10 Euro’s is a lot of money for one burger..(AU$16.42 according to an online crrency converter) but yeah.. I guess the amount of meat has to be taken into consideration. I think I could resist.. especially since my digestion isn’t the best.. (shudder)

I am missing the enchanting light summer nights in Finland. Jaskan Grilli’s food choises surely sound unpalatable for a vegetarian like me. I have lately experienced a saturday midnight busride in Sydney along Pittwater Rd towards Manly and your description of Helsinki nightbus would fit almost exactly also to my Sydney bus experience…

oh my god! A vegetarian’s worst nightmare! I’m not vegetarian but I don’t know if I could eat that much meat! I would still give it a go though, and try to decipher between all the different meat flavours in each bite.

completely irrelevant sidenote: I am loving that nail polish that you have on!
