Paul’s Caul… Ubud in da hood!
Ubud in da hood The last few months I’ve been working like a crazy man, setting up a new café, training new staff and in general filling my time more than one wants. But don’t feel sorry for me, hell no! Because this is accomplished with the sole purpose of getting me exactly where I…

Miss Margarita Mexican Cantina, Byron Bay (part 2)… and film review “Gravity”
Self thought it has been a while since I have returned to my favourite Mexi-loco bar type restaurant-y haunt in Byron Bay. Also, Jennee (due to various unforeseen factors) was 0-3 on her attempts to be swooned by the taste of cheap eats, a punchy mojito and the service of fine looking bohemian-esque barmen. The…

Paul’s Caul… The Vue de Monde experience…
Vue de monde/Beautifully measured elegance Its been over twenty four hours since we entered the private lift that takes you to Vue de monde and I’m still buzzing from the five and a half hour experience, and yes that is what it is, its not just dinner, its not just sustenance, its not just a…

Robina Yum Cha and the continuation of Jennee’s Birthday
Anyone who knows me, or thinks they know me, or follows my life through the misty little second story bathroom window that is this blog, will know two things. That I am a fan of the yum cha, and that one day of birthday celebrations is never enough. There are yet undiscovered tribes of pygmies…

Their last accolades came from the “Delicious Magazine Produce Awards” in the form of the award for best use of local produce by a restaurant.…

Byron Beach Cafe
Byron Beach Cafe… the very last breakfast of my holidays Yes, we are back in ol’ Byron town. Home of everything hippy, happy, holistic and often hellishly hippy-critical. The last two weeks have been an absolute blast and now, all of sudden the holiday is over. Two weeks of lovely, beautiful holidays are done. It’s…

Grill’d. A place to eat burgers…
Grill’d. A place to eat burgers… Grill’d at Coolangatta. A place to eat burgers and look at scantily clad women and guys with really big arms… Another contender for the trendy-and-maybe-a-little-bit-healthier-fast-food-chain-of-the-year award. These guys do make a good burger. From seemingly humble beginnings in Sydney they have grown to a chain of at least two…

Lunch at Le Relais Bressan, Flaxton
Lunch at Le ble bleu blah blah… Or lunch at Le Relais Bressan (if you can speak French a little better then Joey from “Friends” circa 1990s sometime), Flaxton. This place was the best dining “experience” of our trip. Good food and wine, great service and meals that hit your table fast… Three courses in…
