What I ate today - the food thread

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.

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.
 
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.
