@casa305_ringwood is a café by day and a restaurant by night, serving modern Australian fare in a beautifully done up space. One of our favourite dishes from the night was the Harissa Marinated prawns (with a pearl couscous salad, harissa and coriander yoghurt). The prawns were grilled to perfection, succulent with that nice smoky char served on a bed of flavourful couscous tossed with greens, herbs and fragrant spices. Highly recommended!

"In the stillness of the mind, I saw myself as I am - unbound. - Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

I can't remember the last time I was completely still for an hour. We live in such busy, chaotic times that staying still even for 5 minutes seems like a luxury. But I did get to experience that luxury when I was invited to attend a few floatation therapy sessions @beyond.rest. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The benefits of floating are many; its both physically and emotionally enriching. Personally, I experienced a deep sense of calm, a quietness within which is usually a challenge because I am a high strung emotional person otherwise. Also, immense relief from those aches and pains that persisted in my neck and shoulders from all the writing/editing tasks. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Read more about my experience, and book your first float today. I can't recommend it enough! Link in bio.....

After a long hiatus, I am back to conducting cooking classes, this time in association with @foodietrailsau. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A hands on cooking class with a focus on regional everyday Indian food; ideal for anyone who wants to learn more about the cuisine and culture of India. Looking beyond the trappings of restaurant food, these classes are designed to help you understand more about the foundation of Indian cuisine, sharing and teaching recipes from different parts of the country. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Set in a fun, casual and friendly environment, the classes run for approximately 3 hours during which time you will learn to cook at least 5 different dishes featuring an entrée, mains, dessert etc….
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Learn more about these classes, schedules and make a booking; also all my favourites for the month of January, up on the blog now; link in bio....

One of the restaurants that I was quite keen to try out while visiting Sydney was @manjits.wharf. I had seen and heard much about this Indian restaurant so I had pretty high expectations about the food. But the experience left me a a bit underwhelmed; the food was good but regular fare that I often find in Indian restaurants here. There was nothing fusion or modern about the cuisine though that's the tagline. None of the dishes were outstanding, though we did enjoy these cocktail Gol Gappas. The views of the harbour are spectacular though......

Going into Grade 6, I decided that Adi's lunch box needs to be more substantial than the previous years. And so this year, the focus is to include more nutritious and homemade meals (a cold cut sandwich is not really a homemade meal!), keeping in mind the dietary needs of his growing body. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Pastas are often on the lunch menu, not the saucy cheesy kind, but the stir fried ones with lots of veggies. Like today's box with Penne, asparagus, broccoli, peppers and snow peas. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you have an older child, what's the kind of lunch box they prefer? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
