Our last Darwin meal. Late lunch at Moorish Cafe.
First whiskey and juniper marinated salmon. Delicious.


Chorizo. Because I like it.


Then scallops. Perfect. Note no roe. That’s because they use the roe as an ingredient in another dish.


Beautiful lamb strips.


For dessert Mrsdrron had the Turkish delight ice cream.


I had the crepe with ice cream, dulce de leche and Humpty Doo honey.


Mrsdrron had a carafe of Sav Blanc and I a NT beer.

Inspired by @drron’s photos of Moorish, I had a late lunch there today. I had the same dishes - scallops, lamb and bone marrow ( so I won’t post photos as they have already been posted). Definitely recommend it if you are in Darwin.

Fork for scale

Based on the fork for scale I would not have guessed that as an 800g ribeye, as i have no doubt it is - I’m jealous.

Reverse seared or?

I tell a fib, it was 778 gm but it was mighty thick @Steady

And can't answer your question - I am not allowed near the chef to observe his skills, but it was melt in your mouth tender.

Lunch at a small village in the middle of the SpreeWald. This was during a break on our punt tour

Very local with a SpreeWald fish brotchen, sliced gherkins in a sort of yoghurt , and kartoffel wedges with quark topping





On the punt we had gherkin lemonade. The giant gherkin is a bottle opener.

New girl in my local cafe - not great English and very young so I didn't say anything to her but had a quiet word with the manager after and said you might like to tell her that's not acceptable

Look on the bright side, your cup runneth over. ️ And it proves you're not a mug.

Spoke quietly to the manager as well, so clearly didn’t cause much of a brew-ha-ha

she sure did because I asked for a couple of serviettes to mop it up

I am not going to respond to the attempts at humour from other posts

So was oblivious to it prior to that then? Not ideal…
