A Feast of Culinary Delights!

And it's about time too.

I lamented the lack of gourmet and seafood on offer in Hobart when I was there in July.

Then there was the raw feeling of regret still hanging around – my misguided and unfulfilled visions of cooked garlic pippies (yes, I've had pippies on a boat before) and fresh prawns aboard the Vagabond. That so didn't come true.

I was beginning to think seafood heaven may never happen – until I got to Port Douglas.

2 Fish was everything I had wanted in holiday dining, for so long.

Though I apologise for the crap iphone pics, I didn't have a camera with me.

We gobbled down, Mud Crab, Soft Shell Mud Crab, Barramundi Spring Rolls, Oysters with three toppings, Three Pepper Calamari, Scallops and Clams, Cibatta with a good Dukkah, and a nice Yarra valley Pinot Gris.

All so perfectly delicious!

And about as messy as Tom Lu's…

I was in seafood heaven! A nirvana of the tastebuds!

Lunch, the next day at Silky Oaks was also seafood…

Really tasty, but not the indulgence of 2 Fish.

Though I'm pretty sure India loved her pasta…

Not to be outdone, however, and happy Pool Resort had a dishwasher, we stopped at THE seafood shop. I can't remember it's name, but it's in he street behind Coles, and it's next to the petrol station.

I bought so much yummy seafood, as well as some smoked crocodile. Next door was a fruit shop/deli, that had all the ingredients we needed to complete the dinner time gourmet delight.
