An Anzac Beechworth

I spent Anzac Day in Beechworth this year.

It's a quaint, old little town ...

Full of charming little shops ... Some Frenchy ...

And 'purveyors of fine foods', selling delish local produce ...

My foodie friend and I ate at Wardens again. Let's show you our delicious three-hour Sunday lunch, shall we?

To start ...

Appetisers ... It's like art on a plate ...

... And VERY tasty art, I might add! Here are the mains, including the gnocchi above.

And now, dessert! (The best part!)

YUMMM!!

Then, to walk it off, we went to Nine Mile Music, where I bought a French CD ...

... then into Larder, the fromagerie next door.

Where foodie friend bought this cheese.

They were all out of my favourite pistachio turkish delight :(
Oh well, next time ...

And so ends the day with a cute doggie patiently waiting for his owner outside the painting shop!

Wardens @ Beechworth

Went out for a lovely dinner at Wardens in Beechworth. They recently were awarded a hat in The Age Good Food Guide 2010.
I enjoyed:

• ANTIPASTI:
  Ham hock terrine
• PRIMI:
  Mustard crusted quail, grilled cotechino, lentils, spiced white bean puree and candied pears
• PASTA:
  Raviolo of pecorino romano, cinnamon and orange lamb bolognese, baby parsley
• DESSERT:
  Pistachio and olive oil torte, rosewater ice-cream, rhubarb agrodolce and candied ginger

I think the dessert was the highlight for me :)
Do visit their website for a drool here.

Licorice Allsorts

Bright and colourful Licorice Allsorts were my inspiration yesterday :)

Love the colourful stripes!

I made them into a Licorice Allsort Slice for my Dada for Father's Day :) Yumm.
