The Wayzgoose Cafe, Leura
Nov 23rd
I have visited Leura many a times having lived in Bathurst for four years to attend university. However I had not been back since I moved back to Sydney until last weekend when we were in the Blue Moutains for a work conference.
On Saturday we decided to go for a bush walk and then have lunch in Leura and I was very excited to re-visit The Wayzgoose Cafe. Unfortunately since being diagnosed as a coeliac I can no longer have the signature dish at The Wayzgoose Cafe, Flowerpot Scones, however this gave me the chance to try some of their More >
Ten Japanese restaurant Randwick
Nov 12th
About every fortnight my old uni flatmate and I catch up over dinner in order to suppress the withdrawal symptoms we experience from not living together anymore!
When I was living over on the north side of Sydney we used to meet at Sushi on Stanley, a delicious and cheap sushi place in Darlinghurst. However when I moved over the other side of the bridge my friend suggested that we instead meet in Randwick as she knew a great sushi place there. Needless to say, we have been going to Ten Japanese Restaurant ever since.
Being coeliac I have to be quite careful what More >
November’s product wrap-up
Nov 11th
There are a number of products I eat/trial on a regular basis that don’t really warrant an entire blog post so I have decided to have a monthly product wrap-up.
Country Life Low GI bread
This month I thought I’d run through a couple of products that I eat on a daily basis.
1. Country Life Low GI bread
Bread is one thing that never seems to be the same when it is gluten free, however luckily for all the coeliacs and gluten intolerant people out there, there are a couple of companies that have produced some breads which are getting closer. One of More >
Recipe: Gluten free rum balls
Nov 9th
I had a bit of free time on the weekend and decided I wanted to do some baking. Mum suggested that I bake something that could be put in the freezer for Christmas time as she is starting to freak out a little with all the baking she has to do as we are hosting Christmas this year, and with all the family in NZ they wont be able to bring any baking with them!
I also liked this idea as it meant that it would be gluten free – as not all of the Christmas baking is going to be More >
Espresso Zarcino, Chatswood Chase
Nov 3rd
If you are after a sweet gluten free treat in Chatswood you have quite a few choices, one being Espresso Zarcino in Chatswood Chase.
Espresso Zarcino has a huge range of hot and cold drinks, sweet treats and savory items, however unfortunately they do not have any savory gluten free choices.
As I try and avoid buying sweet treats too often I have only tried the orange and almond cake at Zarcino. The cake, which is dairy and gluten free, is very moist and, well, tastes delicious!
Other gluten free options include: lemon polenta cake, japonaise cake (hazelnut and chocolate meringue), peach & passionfruit More >
Pattison’s Patisserie
Nov 2nd
Someone’s birthday at work is always an anticipated day as everyone else in the office gets to celebrate with them by eating cake. However, this can become a problem when you are coeliac. Fear not, if you or your work mates don’t want to attempt to cook a gluten free cake, Pattison’s Patisserie can come to the rescue!
Pattison’s has a range of savory and sweet gluten free items, among many other amazing looking glutenous ones.
For my birthday this year, work ordered a Fleur de Lys cake, a traditional French styled chocolate mousse cake set on an almond and hazelnut baked meringue More >
