So today was the Newtown Good Food fair and it was a gorgeous, warm day. We thought we were being tricky by getting there at 1130am (it opened at 11am) but we only got a few things before the queues were ridiculous. Ended up getting sushi on the way home!
However, what we did have was lovely and it was great to try stuff from places I haven't been to before.
The Sausage surveys the scene
This is a sculpture by a local artist, Will Coles, he is one of our faves and he's quite subversive...
Polents chips with Blue Cheese sauce from Mary's
Fresh Sydney Rock oysters with apple ponzu dressing from Osteria Russo & Russo
The behemoth smoker from Mary's
Po'boys! Unfortunately the queue was too long for this one and I think that once you've had a NOLA po'boy, everything else just pales in comparison...
Ham hock croquettes from Russo & Russo
Haloumi and watermelon salad
Babushka!
Piroshki from Izba
Robot dog, there are three of these in my area
Mak Mak macarons!
The Bacon, chocolate and raspberry macaron topped with pork floss from Mak Mak-DELISH!
One of the Animal's animals...
Fun in the sun
The Sausage with his new mate Wanda who was a dachshund/Staffordshire terrier cross....so cute!
My mother only allows me to take 'non-posed' shots of her...so she looks a bit strange...

My darling Sausage, Gomez

DeleteOh yummy food Becky. I agree with Mel, it all looks delicious.
DeleteThanks Swivel! What we had was fab...
DeleteLooks wonderful. I am now hungry. LOL.
ReplyDeleteThe Ukrainian in me just adores that Babuska lady on display.
The macarons look fab too.
ReplyDeleteConfession ... I just ate my very first one in NYC last week.
Macarons are just about my fave thing eva, AJ!
DeleteI am not ashamed to admit I lingered viewing the oysters for an inordinately long time.
ReplyDeleteHahah they were good too Charlie, so Mr Mae says...I don't do molluscs...
DeleteAustralian sausages! This food fair made it official, I am moving to Australia. I'll have to bring a Texas smoker down with me and show you what a real behemoth looks like! Now I want to eat everything in the kitchen.
ReplyDeleteOMG J, totes come with your smoker! I've seen way bigger ones too in Missouri. One day Mr Mae and I want to have an amazing fuck off outdoor kitchen and we want to import one of those suckers! We have a little smoker right now but it pales in comparison to these...
