Three different beef/steak pies are pictured here. The two shots on the bottom left are of the pies whose insides are showing on the right.

All pies were purchased and consumed in different parts of regional Victoria, Australia, at various times.

Pre-Christmas BBQ (files.catbox.moe)
submitted 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) by Aesecakes@aussie.zone to c/foodporn@lemmy.world

It is summer here in Australia and it’s quite common to do this type of food at this time of year. What we refer to as a barbecue is what many would call a grill. And no, we don’t call them shrimp. Whatever you choose to call them, it was all delicious.

Description, clockwise from bottom:

  • Pork and fennel sausages with Argentinian chimichurri
  • Australian banana prawns
  • Corn on the cob (boiled and finished on the grill)
  • Halloumi, onion, red and green capsicum (pepper) and mushroom skewers
  • Potato salad

I used to know a man who was huge fan of Queen but also massively homophobic. When I called him out on it, “Um, Freddie was very gay”, he quickly replied, “Oh, that’s different”. 🤔

Thanks for asking. I’ll add a description to the post a bit later with what I can remember. The red meat is flank.

I lived in the UK for 10 years and am married to a Scot, so I understand the similarities and differences!

Good effort by Robe Seafood and Takeaway. Crispy and light batter, excellent chips. Just the thing on a long, solo road trip.

Thanks for asking. It's a crumb of some type. I was too agog at the prospect of my nice meal that I forgot to note down all the details from the menu. Can assure you that it was delicious. The crumb added a nice texture to the soft scallop and the butter's smoothness and flavouring didn't overpower things.

I if I had ordered 24 of these it would have cost more than the rest of the meal (for two) combined!

Good point. I nicked the description from an indicative menu on their website as I forgot to note what it said on the menu when I went there. Clearly they altered it since then. Will edit title of ~~point~~ post. I definitely did eat it!

I also quite enjoyed the single series of High Fidelity that was made. Slightly less light-hearted.

This plant that is endemic to SE continental Australia, was named by Baron Sir Ferdinand Jacob Heinrich von Mueller, the first director of the Royal Botanic Garden, Melbourne. The genus Banksia is named after Joseph Banks, a naturalist who was on Cook’s first Pacific voyage in the 1770s. Its binomial name is b.ornata.

For anyone who plays Wingspan, the board game, this is one of the types of plant that the nectar food source comes from.
