Isn’t it such a buzz when you find a place that is run by passionate people who know their sh*t? That’s Little Missy Patisserie.

The Discovery Of Stone Soup At MoMa

Destination, Establishment, Historic Venues, Markets & Fresh Produce, Recipes, Tasmania, TravelBy Chrissie MathesonMarch 17, 2017Leave a comment

MoMa always draws a good crowd. And on a glorious Sunday in summer, one can visit MoMa – or the MONA Market – and enjoy ‘stone soup’.

St Albi's

St Albi’s Scores High On Food But Low On Service

Cuisine, Destination, Establishment, Modern Australian, Pubs & Bars, Restaurants, Reviews, Tasmania, Wine BarsBy Chrissie MathesonMarch 15, 20172 Comments

This time we’re at St. Albi’s which has been getting quite a reputation. Set back from Albert Road in Moonah, it draws the crowds pretty much every night.

Carl

Carl The Blueberry Man: Hidden Hobart

Destination, Establishment, Orchards & Farms, Tasmania, TravelBy Chrissie MathesonMarch 13, 20174 Comments

A superb blue sky day just outside Hobart, soaking up the green and blue of a blueberry orchard. Carl spends every day there. He knows he’s a lucky man.

Daci and Daci

Daci And Daci Is The Scent Of Freshly Baked Pastries Wafting Through Hobart’s Kitchen

Cuisine, Destination, Establishment, Pattiseries & Bakeries, Reviews, TasmaniaBy Chrissie MathesonMarch 10, 2017Leave a comment

Walking home laden from the Bathurst Street Farmgate markets, pastries waft into my brain. Daci and Daci pastries in fact.

Twamley Farm

Twamley Farm A Treat For Your Senses

Destination, Tasmania, TravelBy Chrissie MathesonMarch 6, 2017Leave a comment

I took in bucolic, rolling countryside with an old shearer’s quarters and shed at the top of the hill, with TWAMLEY FARM painted proudly on the roof.

Hobart Salamanca

Hidden Hobart: Allow Yourself To Be Seduced By Salamanca

Destination, Tasmania, TravelBy Chrissie MathesonMarch 3, 20172 Comments

Hobart is like a great lady of the burlesque. She’s constantly teasing, revealing, and always her colourful history informs the smallest detail.

Hearth Pizza

Hearth Pizza Just The Thing To Kindle A Foodie’s Fire

Cuisine, Destination, Establishment, Italian, Restaurants, Reviews, TasmaniaBy Chrissie MathesonFebruary 27, 2017Leave a comment

A cosy sit by the fireplace, even in summer? Great pizza, flavours, and atmosphere. Hearth ticked our boxes and then some.

comedy

Hidden Hobart: Tassie Comedy Gets A Polish

Destination, Establishment, Pubs & Bars, Reviews, Tasmania, TravelBy Chrissie MathesonFebruary 22, 2017Leave a comment

If there’s too much confusion, you need relief, and what better than some really good comedy? Even better still if it’s Jokers at the Polish Club.

Criterion

Criterion Street Cafe Ticks All The Right Boxes

Cafes, Destination, Establishment, Reviews, TasmaniaBy Chrissie MathesonFebruary 20, 2017Leave a comment

If you want a change from the street food at the Farm Gate markets in Bathurst Street, where do you go? Ha, just round the corner and into Criterion.
