After an epically disappointing three days last week, I had three nights of seeing bands. Which made me much happier indeed. I have also eaten some pretty amazing food before the concerts. Except for before Powderfinger where I had chips with cheese and gravy.
Rather than mix these photos in with the concert reviews, I will post them here.

But the gnocci was a puzzling taste and texture |

It was spinach gnocchi but we decided it was made of grass. The waiter said 'it's not boogers on a plate' - and thank god!

This was anchovy relish. It tasted like cat food. It was delicious though. My friend and I shared it. Everything else tasted bland in comparison. |

Baked beans, cheesy toast and hash brown. The hash brown was like deep fried mash. |
