A perfect weekend

Another beautiful Sydney weekend. Golden sunshine, a mild breeze and some friends with whom to enjoy it. First an evening walk along Bondi with Ellen. Then Saturday at the shops buying pretties. Saturday night with uni friends, eating ham and drinking sparkling wine. And Sunday spend swimming laps, lazing in a spa and cooking in the steam room, followed by sushi. Oh and i dare not forget the amazing beef and Guinness pie my brother and i made for dinner tonight. Good weekend no?

Stay tuned for a delicious recipe for beef and Guinness pie with a side of minted mushy peas and mashed sweet potato.

Steel Bar and Grill!!!

All i can say is YUM! Steel Bar and Grill is such a great restaurant. The food, the drinks, the dessert *drifts into a drooling dreamy daze*. I think its delicious menu has been calling to Ellen and i for a while, and we finally gave in to its pull.

My outfit comprised of a lovely Alannah Hill dress, cute little wedges from Truworths, and a belt from Cue. And to add a bit of bling and glamour, a lovely seed pearl and emerald ring from Dresden Dollz, a scarab bracelet from Nouveau Motley, and a diamond ring from Tresors.

Now onto the food!!!!!

Totally amazing cocktails. I had one called an Aztec iced tea, and Ellen enjoyed a Mrs K.

Very nice share plate. Squid stuffed with an array of herbs and spices and some kind of wholewheat cous cous type ingredient. Yum,

The main courses were incredible. They certainly know how to cook meat at this place, and with a name like theirs you'd hope they would. I had pork wrapped in pancetta with spinach and potato gratin. Ellen had lamb with eggplant, olive and capsicum. 

Mmmm desserts. Vanilla creme brule with pistachio biscoti and strawberries....oh my god, can't even describe how good it was. Ellen's was pretty amazing too, dark chocolate mousse cake with burnt orange ice cream and honeycomb bits. 

Needless to say, we were both in heaven. Can't wait to go back hehe.
