R.I.P. Fidal Gastro

Ok…here's the deal.

I'm getting rid of my ill-conceived and mis-spelled food critic alter ego, Fidal Gastro. It was just a pain in the arse keeping him going, So from now on I'm just gonna talk about food here. The joke got to old too quick for me. So expect to hear me banging on to no end about food, food, and more food.

While we're talking about food. Mag's Carey took Craig and I to an Ice cream joint in Bay St, Port Melbourne (just near Grandma's) called Gelati Sky. Man….this place is pumping out some serious iced quality. With lots of exotic flavours to choose from, such as Peanut butter, coco lime, tim tam, pina colada…plus all your old faves, it wont leave you wanting for choice. I got the "double cone", one scoop peanut butter, one scoop coco lime….which is just coconut flavour. Both were awesome. It's a bit…..no….it's fucking pricey, but it's hella good ice cream. $3.80 will get you a double cone with 2 flavours. You can get expensive take home tubs at $8.50 for half a litre(2 flavours), and $15.00…..(fuck me) for 1 litre (3 flavours).

And while were still talking food…….The Rajah of India in North Melbourne (king st), one of Melbourne's best, has recently changed hands. The name has also changed to "Le Taj", which is "Le Gay". I've only sampled the chicken makhani take away lunch pack, but it did seem to be like the new owners claim, "…a step up in quality". The Veg pakoras seemed to have improved as well. I'm sure C$ and I will put them through their paces in the next few months.
