What I ate today - the food thread

[Captain Halliday]

Had the itch for seafood again.

Despite a spectacular coastline and clear blue water… I defy anyone to find fresh seafood anywhere in the Coromandel.

But I digress.

Dinner at the Blue Lagoon Bar and Eatery in Whitianga.

Shared the seafood platter.



The bernaise mussels were great.



And they were happy to do half the fish battered and half grilled keeping everyone happy.



And just to prove I’m still being a responsible parent, Miss H was force fed this.

About last night...
Despite not really feeling up to, I had a reservation to honour at my favourite place in Hong Kong - Yardbird.

Tempura Corn


Right side: KFC (Korean Fried Cauliflower). Researching this dish led me to Yardbird years ago, and they've still got it!
Front: Brussels Sprouts with black garlic and crispy garlic.
Beverage: (no booze tonight - they do have a reasonable whisky selection)
Shio Suika, watermelon and yuzu.
