Bah! Bacon does not go *on* the pancakes! Silly people.

Of course not! It goes with eggs.

I want moreton bay bugs followed by roo stew!

I've eaten most of the stuff on that list already. The meat pies exist in both varieties here: "shepard's pie" or "pâté chinois" is usually ground beef and vegetables baked under mashed potatoes, and "tourtière" is a meat pie where the meat is either ground veal, mutton or pork or all three or venison. Included in the pie there can be potato or onion or lard... there are many variations.

Ah, but those aren't Australian Meat Pie.

Imagin a small, round apple pie, about 6" in diameter. Now, instead of fruit use ground beef and gravy, and non-sweet pastry. That's a meat pie.

Variations are curried meed, meat & veg, steak & onion, Steak & bacon, meat & potatoes, chicken and veg, etc.

Yesterday I went to (what used to be a huge and varied) fish market and asked for morton bay bugs or slipper lobsters. They kept trying to sell me spiney lobsters. Oz is too far away.

I've had many of those from going to some unusual restaurants. But I'm missing the guinea pig.

[dewhitton.livejournal.com]

"Missing" as in not had any yet, or "Missing" as in "Tried it and really really want some right now" ?

[mortonfox.livejournal.com]

I haven't had the guinea pig yet. I'm not sure I want to try that at the moment.

I swiped this from you and set it up as a meme. People seem to be having fun with it; I've already seen 2 responses on my friendslist. Egoboo!

There's a restaurant here that sells guinea pig. It's EXPENSIVE. Like $30 expensive. That's more than most steaks.

What the heck is cream tea?

[starcat-jewel.livejournal.com]

Cream tea. (http://www.broadwayhouse.com/creamtea.html) Which turns out to be not at all what I'd thought it was!
