What I Wore

Travel bug has well and truly died. 

Why would you want to be anywhere else other than Sydney, when the weather is this good? 

Spring is around the corner, though it feels like it's been here all month. Winter? What winter?

It's the type of weather that makes you want to jump out of bed so you don't waste one minute of it. And jump out of bed I did. Even with a slight headache from last nights festivities, I decided to go for lunch with my cousin at Cofa Sopra's new location in Alexandria. 



In my previous blog post "Playing with White" I mentioned my experimentation with white. Since then, I've had eyes for all things white. These shoes are a recent purchase from Mollini (available online only).

Just casually crossing the road. 
Not staged at all.




Cafe Sopra's new location in Alexandria (corner of Mitchell and Buckland). From the outside, the new (but in my opinion, not improved) Sopra looks quiet and small. Inside, it is spacious and lively. Some might like the new look, but I found it too commercial and impersonal. The old Sopra on Danks Street in Waterloo was rustic and had a lot of charm compared to this place.

Chicken Liver Pate $20
When you've had pâté at Chiswick, Claude's and 4fourteen (and paid less than twenty bucks), it's hard to enjoy anything else. I liked the additional salad, but the pâté itself was average, borderline boring and a waste of money. Lucky I was hungry.

Prosciutto with Parmesan Cheese & Rocket Pizza $22
How do you charge twenty dollars for pâté, and twenty two for a pizza? A very good pizza, I might add.

Lamb Ragu $22
Love the hint of  chilli in the sauce.If it was truly winter and cold, I might have enjoyed this a little more.
