Lunch

We still had some some Blue Castillo,  cheddar, chorizo, crackers and cherries so again we snacked.

• The chorizo was Au$5.4o or $1.35 per serve
• Castello Blue is Au$6.12 or $1.53 per serve
• Cheddar was Au$6.79 or $1.70 per serve
• Cherries were Au$4.50 or $1.12 per serve
• Water crackers were Au$0.95 or 24c per serve

A pretty good range of food for Au$5.94 or US$4.16.

Dinner

We had the chicken legs from our supermarket chicken, and a fair amount of the Spinach, Strawberry and Feta Salad, so that was dinner.

• The Chicken was Au$2.50
• The salad was  Au$1.92 per serve.

While not the most exciting meal it was satisfying for Au$4.42 (US$3.09) per serve.

Lunch

Today we had lunch with Foodie Greg’s parents who took us to a yacht club with a restaurant out in the lake.

Foodie Greg had Salt & Pepper Squid, while Foodie Philip had the above mentioned Rump Steak, etc.

We both enjoyed our meals. The rump had well rendered fat, which is difficult when served rare. Overall, an enjoyable meal.

Dinner

Tonight we joined the rest of the family to celebrate one of our niece’s birthday at a Korean restaurant.  Foodie Greg had pressure cooked short ribs, which was appropriately tender and flavor some.

Foodie Philip opted for BBQ eel, which was also very good. Served with kimchi and other pickled sides, it was a good representation of Korean food.

Lunch

We split a chicken breast across two sandwiches and topped with the stuffing from the bird.

• The bread was Au$0.44 per serve
• The chicken breast Au$1.25 per serve with the stuffing
• Hummus added Au 30c per serve.

A decent sandwich for Au$1.99 (US$1.39) per serve.

Dinner

As we are clearing out Foodie Philip’s mother’s home, we found some frozen carrot and cheddar soup that we defrosted, heated and enjoyed her cooking again.

This has been a long term favorite of Foodie Philip and was still very enjoyable..

Lunch

Another local lunch outlet with enormous serves features a Schnitzel Wrap with Caesar salad. Schnitzel wraps seem to be an Australian thing, but they  are a) enormous, and b) delicious for Au$12.90 (US$9.07) per serve.

Dinner

Tonight we had the chicken and Asian salad we planned for last night.

• The Chicken was Au$9.9o and we each had ¼ or Au$2.50 (US$6.96) per serve
• The Asian salad kit was Au$3.99 or Au$1.00 (US$0.70)

The Asian Salad was quite good. A simple and decent meal for Au$3.50 (US$2.46) per serve.

Breakfast

Stillmon the aircraft we each had a Ham and Cheese Omlette, which was quite decent considering the circumstances.

Lunch

By the time we arrived at our final destination and were able to get food it was mid afternoon. We returned to a local Yeros vendor and enjoyed an enormous Yeros with Cheese, salad and garlic sauce for Au$8.95 or US$6.29 per serve.

Although we had purchased food for dinner, neither of us was hungry after the enormous Yeros.

Lunch

We took a sweet & spicy tuna pouch and turned it into a toasted sandwich.

• The tuna was $2.00 per serve
• Sprouted Rye bread is 32c per serve
• Swiss slices are 12 for $3.99 or 34c per serve
• Add 50c for butter, garlic spread and capers.

A good sandwich for $3.16 per serve.

Dinner

For dinner the Foodies were on an aircraft to Australia. We each had the beef risotto with some sad green beans, which was decent for Airline food.

Lunch

For lunch we finished some par baked panini rolls and stuffed the remaining beef massaman into them. They were great.

• The roll is 63c per serve
• One serve of the beef is $4.42, or $2.21 per serve.

They were great for $2.74 per serve.

Clean out the refrigerator before traveling trumps meatless Monday so we finished the Tom Kha Moo for $4.16 per serve.
