Random photos.

To make up for my lack of posts recently, here's a small one filled with a few random food photos taken over the last month or so. There's not many, but it's something.

Homemade latkes, made by my mother for the first night of Hannukah. I used to hate latkes because when I was little we used to eat them with sugar. The thought still repulses me. I bought some Murray River Sea Salt just to put on the latkes. Now I think they're great. We also ate them with some smoked salmon and horseradish sour cream. Amazing.

Random breakfast: Toast with baked beans and fried eggs.

One of the very few food court dining options that I find somewhat acceptable: Spudbar. This time I had a baked sweet potato with cheese, coleslaw, peas, corn, avocado and sour cream. Baked sweet potatoes are my new best friend.

This was our Christmas Eve dinner. Like all good jews do, I asked my mum to buy a turkey roll to roast at home. We had it with baked potatoes and sweet potatoes, cranberry jam and some salad with Paul Newman's South West dressing. I discovered the South West dressing at a McDonald's while in the States, and was thrilled to find it in the supermarket back home. So good.

One of my trusty favourites: Wonton Soup from China Bar. I hadn't actually had it in a really long time as I tend to go for the Mushroom and Vegetable Noodle Soup now. I had this on a colder summer day. It wasn't amazing. I think they got lazy cause it was towards the end of the day.

This was a seriously random find. We ended up in Bacchus Marsh on the way back from a road trip to Daylesford and visited an amazing produce stand on the side of the road. I saw the Ben & Jerry's fridge on the way back to the car and had to pick some up to eat on the way home. This was the only flavour in the shorty cups.

Long time, no post.

So, it's been a while since I last posted. I have been doing lots of eating, but not lots of photography.
I recently had a dinner with a couple of girls from school and one of the boyfriends. Since I was finishing work around dinner time I suggested we just stayed at Westfield and went to one of the restaurants. There's not a whole lot of choice but it was convenient. We ended up at Groove Train. I'm not the biggest fan of Groove Train but it has a lot of choice so it's good for people who are fussy eaters (which I am clearly not).

Overall, Groove Train isn't too bad. It's a nice setting. The sun was way too bright for 7pm, though and they had no real blinds to draw across the room. It was a killer sitting there for so long with the sun in our eyes. But, the meals weren't too bad. Decent serves for a decent price.

Now on to the photos. I hardly remember what we ate.

 Shared entree: Eggplant chips. These were tasty. Really crunchy on the outside, with a pillowy inside.

My main: Penne with tuna, tomatoes and olives. It wasn't too bad actually, once they got my order right.

Cookie's main: Some kind of pizza.

Leanne's main: Some kind of salad. Maybe one of the lamb ones.

Evelyn's main: Some kind of curry or something. I just remember the mashed sweet potatoes. Who doesn't love some sweet potato mash?
