	<description>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.</description>

		<description>Hi Carol-LOL I agree! :lol:

Hi Lex-Ahh that is great to know! Yes I can imagine it would be great for patrons, but difficult for the kitchen. Yes I don&#039;t tend to order from the Specials menu as that changes a lot and readers can&#039;t get to try it. Thanks, good to know! :)

Hi Tara-I felt vey lucky that day. Hubby and I were totally blissed out that afternoon! Lobster is divine-if you do get the chance I throughly recommend it.

Hi Ellen-Oh that sounds like a wonderful experience! *sigh* I&#039;ve done that a few times (most recently at Emmilou) and was rewarded duly :D

Hi Conor-It was! Yes it can be very expensive here. Oh you are so lucky! Ah yes although I suppose it was good that she said she didn&#039;t like it instead of just steering you one way! :D

		<description>What a gorgeous surf and turf spread!  Absolutely stunning photos!  I agree, asking for the waiter&#039;s suggestions and/or chef&#039;s specials are an excellent idea!</description>

		<description>I think I would go there and only order the Angel Chips - they look like the best ever chips this side of heaven. Lobster - meh - not my favourite meat, crab is more flavourful but carbs fried in fat, aaahhhh!</description>

I tend to make my own decisions when ordering - studying psychology at uni has taught me that waitstaff aren&#039;t always on the customer&#039;s side...</description>
