me three. I was warned. I love small portions of beautifully presented food. What has Japan done to me?! :-)

Honestly, though, we'd all be healthier if we ate this way more often...

Afternoon all! Slumped on the sofa having had a magnificent lunch at Meadowbank Winery near the Derwent River @wineoclock. Lovely local produce and service as always. Tassie excels in great food if you are ever down this way. Porn to follow!!

Quite a low carb affair really! I had a lovely salad with pear and candied walnuts. The dessert was sublime as always. I couldn't decide between the chocolate pudding with mandarin sorbet or the salted caramel and chocolate cake (there I go again @silverdarling!). Jus as going to take one for the team and have one so I could taste both, but then we decided on a tasting plate with a bit of everything, including a lovely apricot soufflé. Oh, and a couple of glasses of lovely local Riesling and Pinot noir. Dinner, well, I had to buy a loaf of their spelt sourdough, which I can smell from here! Coming darling........! :lol:

The desserts were wonderful, everyone on different tables kept ogling others' plates and asking what they were! Presentation is always important.

@Debs the food looks awesome. I've noted the winery for when we get back down to Tassie. I'm already a fan of their Frogmore iced Riesling which is great as a light dessert wine.
