Comments on: The Old Convent, Borenore, Orange http://www.notquitenigella.com/2010/02/28/the-old-convent-borenore-orange/ 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 don't even like cake much as a general rule - but this one I couldn't get enough of. Oh - and the answer to question about whether a Sunday lunch at the Old Convent is worth the long drive from Sydney is a resounding YES! I am lucky enough to have EATEN Josie’s pistachio cake!

The cafe is open on Sunday but we open for groups of 16 or more at anytime. We use the old classroom off the cafe for groups of up to 16 and the old church for groups up to 70. If you could put our website and email details on your review it would be great. Thanks for the comments on our place. The cafe is open on Sunday but we open for groups of 16 or more at anytime.

Scallops always scallops. Me, my dream dish is whole dover sole, but that is a hard find. Lamb chops are a second and if they are with bread salad, I'll hover over it gladly. My husband refuses to pick up bones, so I get mine and his. :) My husband is the predictable one. Scallops always scallops. Me, my dream dish is whole dover sole, but that is a hard find.

Wish I was having either for lunch instead of my boring cheese sandwhich. My must have is crab pasta (I’ve been searching for a nice recipe to replicate) and mushroom risotto.

And the lamb too. :-D As for a dish I always order - well I usually can't go past duck on a French menu. Other times it's usually steak only because I don't eat much of it at home.
