The modern twists on classics was exciting and it delivered on flavour too which is a key factor when playing around with tradition. Can’t wait to go back to try other dishes.

Champagne....that doesn't break your bank!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Ever since I discovered the Veuve Monsigny Premier Cru at Aldi, it has become my go to Champagne for all our Christmas parties. A more affordable option but without compromising on quality. Refreshingly delicious with honey, citrus and pear notes, this is the bubbly of the season. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Plus, lots of interesting and delicious Special Buys this season @aldiaustralia ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I love this time of the year....the festive spirit in the air is so joyous and uplifting. And I love visiting the city to see the various Christmas decorations, lights and installations. This year, we also visited the Gingerbread Village by Epicure.....a whooping 600kg of gingerbread, 460kg of royal icing and 200kg of marzipan has been lovingly sculpted into some of Melbourne’s most iconic landmarks. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But more importantly, this project is undertaken every year to raise funds for Royal Children's Hospital so the gold coin donation you make for an entry into the village, goes towards an amazing cause. So it was befitting that the RCH building was one of the most stunning displays at the Gingerbread village too.The craftsmanship is simply spectacular. Don't miss it!

We decided to visit Questacon for the little champ. But let me tell you, it's for anyone with a curious mind. Not to be missed while at Canberra. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

While at Canberra, we visited the National Arboretum - a 250 hectare site featuring 94 forests of rare, endangered and symbolic trees from around Australia and the world. It is one of the world's largest living collections of rare, endangered and significant trees. It was an awe-inspiring experience just being in that space that holds a lot of promise for our future generations. We had lunch at the cafe there which looks out into this open space; even though many of the trees are still young, it was still a spectacular sight to behold. It is also home to the National Bonsai and Penjing collection which houses some of the finest miniature trees and forests from around the world. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

A bowl of salad is compulsory at our dinner table. It can be a simple one like sliced onions or cucumbers or a slightly more elaborate one like this Chickpeas, Carrot and Radish salad. Tossed with pine nuts and a simple vinaigrette, this one is a perfect summer salad. Recipe link in bio.....

On our road trip to Sydney, we took a detour to Canberra and spent a day there exploring some iconic spots. Though there's so much to see and experience in the Capital City, we could spare only a day but we put it to the best use. Of course starting with our Parliament House....we took an inside tour which is the best way to learn more about the history of this great nation. The staff are so friendly and always available to share interesting anecdotes and tidbits; truly a wonderful experience.

Take slivers of porterhouse steak grilled with a delicious spice rub and encase it lovingly in a wholemeal tortilla and then top generously with fresh avocado salsa and a homemade chilli aioli. Add a squeeze of lime and then take a big bite for a delicious mouthful. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Brrr.....hasn't today been cold? Such a meh day and I was totally craving for some home cooked comfort. So it's a simple methi dal (mixed lentils with baby fenugreek leaves) and rice for dinner tonight. It's so easy to grow fenugreek leaves at home, and I like snipping the baby leaves for making the dal. If you like to have more info about this or the recipe for this nourishing lentil curry, check out the article I wrote for @drhelenedwardswrites website.

Gundagai is often referred to as 'Home of the Dog'. Based on a famous Australian folklore, the legend of the Dog which started doing the rounds in the early 1850s was immortalized by a popular song by Jack O’Hagan, Along the Road to Gundagai, Where the Dog sits on the Tucker Box has made Gundagai a favourite spot for locals and tourists alike.

The Dog on the Tucker Box Pioneer monument immmortalises this story and resides in a garden precinct, a must visit when you pass through this town with such an interesting and colourful history. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
