A GIN EDUCATION, visitors as well as BONDI beach

I have a confession to make. this week I viewed the Lego Movie. It wasn’t my idea, however I still couldn’t stop viewing it. It’s got to be the trippiest film I’ve ever seen. It’s crazy! I apologise in advancement if this post’s a bit weird. Blame it on the LegoMovie.

Have you seen this mind mess of a film? exactly how long did you have to spend in therapy after?

What a method to begin a working week. I’m in The Rook – a bit bar on the top of an office block in the city. Yes, it’s Monday lunchtime, as well as indeed this is a negroni. however it’s all part of the outstanding talk provided by alcohol historian as well as master distiller at Sipsmith: Jared. You can just see him there in the background holding the mic.

This negroni’s the very best one I’ve ever had – I can’t wait to go back for one more one – however the stuff Jared was telling us is incredible. He understands so much as well as is so interesting. I might listen to him chat about booze all day. He likewise reminds me a great deal of Jeff Bridges!

My breakfast this morning is just about my preferred non-bacon based breakfast option I can believe of. It’s to be discovered at two great Eggs in Surry Hills as well as is a work of art. The meal is called ‘Goats on Toast’ for the easy reason that it’s goats cheese on toasted sour cherry loaf. It likewise has smashed walnuts, a drizzle of honey as well as half a sliced crisp apple.

I like this dish. I tried a side of bacon with it when however it just didn’t work. I was astonished. Bacon – not choosing something? possibly it’s much more like Goats on toast not choosing bacon… yes, that seems much much more plausable!

Mrs romance as well as I are so excited. Our buddies from San Diego – Mona as well as Brendan – are right here visiting. They’re staying with us too, so we’re truly pleased to be costs some much more time with them. At Mona’s request we’ve had a quick walk with the QVB, her preferred building in Sydney. I can see where she’s coming from. It should be one of the loveliest buying shopping centers around.

For dinner tonight, we’re all in The Botanist in Kirribilli. We’ve discussed it a couple of other times in the past, as well as I believe it is worthy of a bit much more of a shout-out. It’s a awesome bit place, as well as the drinks as well as food are great.

Mona as well as Bredan have brought with them from California a relic of the ancient times! We couldn’t assist it – we had to compare these two phones. Mrs Romance’s is the one on the right, however Mona’s on the left has a much longer battery life! It seems unusual now to believe we utilized phones just like that (and believed they were the pinnacle of technology) a few years ago.

Mona was texting on it earlier as well as the click-click-click of the buttons truly took me back!

We’re out for a few drinks as well as dinner tonight. somehow we end up in Hinky Dinks in Darlinghurst. It’s a quite awesome location – extremely ’50s diner vs Tiki bar. It’s great deals of fun as well as the drinks are excellent. Make sure you pop your head in if you’re in the area.

We can’t wait to go as well as go to them.

Anyway, I got to hang out with Mr Utopia for a while however then made my method right here to Bondi beach to catch up with a great mate of mine as well as his bro I haven’t seen in ages. It’s likewise the eve of the City to surf race, so Bondi’s a hive of activity at the moment. It’s one of those outstanding Sydney winter’s days that’s just ideal for a coffee as well as stroll along the beach.

And the people-watching today is even much better than it typically is!
