I'm usually pretty comfortable with my faux meat treats, but buying cheddar cheese spread made me feel dirty. I wonder what's to be done with the rest of the jar.
August 23, 2016 Today we celebrate the 10th birthday of this here blog. We started where's the beef? in our first month of living in Melbourne and it's grown into an incredible document of our time in this city - it's threaded with the broadening acceptance and availability of vegetarian foods, the ebbs and flows of food trends, and our own evolving kitchen habits. We've collated some year-by-year highlights below. ____________ Year 1 Being our first year living in Melbourne, we spent our weekends exploring various restaurants, markets and festivals all over the city . Michael started working in Fitzroy and launched the Gertrude St Grub series ; Cindy's workplace showed off their home cooking skills . Best recipe: spiced chickpeas Best restaurants: Three, One, Two , Moroccan Soup Bar Year 2 Cindy had a slow culinary start because she had her wisdom teeth removed . After that week we got much more sociable, participating in our first food blogger mee...
We're celebrating another blog millennium with some alterations to our site design - hope you like the new look! Actually, there's not much time to write as we're cooking all sorts of goodies for tomorrow's celebratory picnic . It'll be great to see some of you there. I can't imagine what our years in Melbourne, eating habits and circle of friends would be like if we hadn't set up where's the beef? . Thanks for your readership, your recommendations and your encouragement.
In 2008, Michael and I are stepping into the unfamiliar world of high culture with a subscription to the Melbourne Theatre Company . Thus, on seven Fridays in the next ten months, we'll be hunting for delicious dinners around the CBD that we can gobble down before the curtains rise at 8pm. I'm clumsily dubbing this series of posts Friday Featre Food. We've got a few ideas for future meals but we're also keen for your recommendations - casual or classy, just be sure it's tasty and timely. First up, an old favourite with a new flavour: Lord of the Fries . They have a second outlet now at Shop 5 Flinders St Station, facing Federation Square. We picked up the $13.40 deal - an original regular-sized burger, a spicy regular-sized burger and a cone of chips. The night's sauce of choice? The Indian chutney/yoghurt mix. It was pleasant enough, but the Belgian mayonnaise holds a special place in my heart (or is that arteries?). We relaxed on the grassy south bank...
Ha!
