Comments on: Almond Bar, Darlinghurst for Syrian Cuisine http://www.notquitenigella.com/2009/12/02/almond-bar-darlinghurst/ 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 guess 'new' is relative! Christmas wish? That my beloved would get some sense and realize that putting in that application for emigration from Ireland to Australia is of the utmost priority!

But I had to leave for work and didn't catch where it was. Or maybe I was distracted by the mezze. Mmm Mmm, looks so delicious! Hiya,

And then the pita and dips? Wish I could have been there. Was surprised at the raw lamb- guess you'd have to be really careful with that. Fun evening! And ending with those wonderful old hats was great. We just don't wear hats enough anymore. Love all the assorted almonds you had. And then the pita and dips? Wish I could have been there.
