From what I've experienced in Australia, this is typical of any
restaurant or home cooking down under. It all sucks.
I guess that's the disadvantage of living so far away from real
civilization - you folks historically didn't have any bordering
neighbors to teach you how to cook or eat anything worthwhile.

You lot, of course, have the civilizing influence of the Mexicans on
your so-called cuisine! From what I've experienced in America, you are
in no position to talk. Huge servings of bloody nearly inedible junk
food swimming in grease and overloaded with chili to make up for the
lack of flavour.
LOL!!
It's time the bloody Yanks went back to meat and 3 veg. They have
tooooooo many choices, and 99.99999999999% of them are utter [censored]!!
Lets ask Stevie Boy........ when was the last time you made your own
bread?
When was the last time you made a pizza from scratch (ie, packet of
flour)
Quoted message said:I did get some good home cooked meals; if you didn't
here then it is a reflection on the people you were keeping company
with, not on the local cuisine.
I don't really think that Stevie actually came out here. I think he's
just being a bitter [censored] :-)
Quoted message said:Unless, of course, you are so used to
bad cooking that you actually don't appreciate good cooking when it
lands on your plate.
He *is* a Texass'n, don't forget!!
Quoted message said:We've got a friend like that, and I regret to say
she's American, though to be fair she could be any nationality. I
blame
Quoted message said:the parents.
I have a Canadian mate, she speaks 3 languages (not Mexican) and loves
food and wine.
Maybe it's just the US residents that are fat, lazy, obnoxious [censored]
who think their 'plastic food' is the ducks guts?
Quoted message said:
Australia, like America, was settled by people from all over the
world.
Quoted message said:They didn't need to be taught how to cook, they brought the knowledege
with them and, unlike far too many of your compatriots, equally far
from
Quoted message said:"real civilization" (now I suppose I've offended the Canadians), they
haven't forgotten and had to take lessons from the Mexicans. Indeed, I
have read that authentic Mexican food is not bad, but that a specially
inedible version has been developed by Americans. I'm sure somebody
will
Quoted message said:correct me if I'm wrong about this :-)
No, you aren't wrong.
Quoted message said:
I realise that you're just stirring possums with this drivel (goodness
knows Pete invites it),
Que'?????
Moi'????
:-P
Just goes to show how frikken uptight, and up-themselves, the bloody
Yanks are.
Oh, hang on.......... Stevie is from Texass.
We shouldn't tar all Yanks with the same brush as him!!
Quoted message said:but honestly you only make yourself look like
the stereotypical loud ignorant Yank. And there's always the danger
that
Quoted message said:some people will take you seriously.
LOL!!! Best laugh I've had all day!!
So to get back onto the food thingy........
No breakfast, no brunch.
1430hrs on the balcony with nibblies...... and wine as *she* requested.
Found out my pooch *loves* marinated octopus........ but she didn't get
any of the leftover King Island Blue Brie.
Dinner was a Weber cooked chicken and veges to my own recipe.
Which I will divulge later....... couldn't be arsed now.
After this glass of wine, it's time for bed, methinks!!
