Seems like the posts are not from last month anymore, which is kind of bad since it means I have not posts scheduled for long. And that is why I am here. And also to talk about the food in Australia.

This country seems to rely in its neighbours for cooking their food, since most of what you can find is thai, malasian and chinese food. And of course italian, because the amount of italian people in here is incredibly high. The only typical australian food I can think of is meat pie, which is really good, but also reminds me a bit of the british, which is obviously the ones that brought the idea from overseas. That leaves us with kangaroo and emu that are actually kinds of meat and not dishes, being the last conclusion: There is no food from Australia.

However, you should try one of the nice burguer restaurants in Freemantle, the "just burguers" in Perth, and the meat pies in York. For a complete inmersion in the culture, go to Hungry Jacks and make a picture of the place, nobody will believe it relly is Burguer King if there is not visual proof.


Note the Whopper advertisement in the door, for those who are still dubious

Other imported concept, one I am very pleased with, even though my bank account thinks otherwise is this.



Does it ring a bell?, I bet it does not if you have not been to China on your own (those pesky tour operators just seem to enjoy you not being able to taste a bit of the local produce or real life in the place you go to), this, my friends is Pearl Tea (or as called in Australia: Bubble tea), one of the things I missed most after my trip to China. I love milk tea the way they prepare it, and if you add jelly spheres to the combination it just becomes the most awesome cold beverage in the universe. And I can have it here. For a ridiculosly high price and not quite the same taste, but I can. And I am very happy for that.
