It caused my mother a lot of stress and a lot of heart ache. She is not as computer able as I am so she told me to tell you that she thanks you for taking it down.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-37404293084348757682010-03-11T10:40:25.858+11:002010-03-11T10:40:25.858+11:00Yes, at the previous bakery building sites.

I'm sorry but I hadn't heard of them before I received that particular bit of info then googled them.<br />Hi Victor - thanks for the comment and the new Chinese restaurant info. I'm presuming that would replace that 'family', all-you-can-eat restaurant I presume? (On the site of the former Maypole Bakery?)<br />Thanks Anon 1.04 - someone left the question about that very coffee place here last week, with someone else replying that it was going to be an Oomph, but no one mentioned the new development next door. That's the first I've heard of it, so am sorry I can't help you there, but maybe another reader can enlighten us?Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05721723151185687327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-87024627351868307922010-03-11T01:04:28.655+11:002010-03-11T01:04:28.655+11:00big developments in murray st. is it a new oomph a...big developments in murray st. is it a new oomph and what's going next door? saw the guy from marque iv with others measuring stuff, maybe a new marque iv? the old lo cost looks like it might be a food hub? anyone?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-44577358044691084032010-03-10T22:19:46.320+11:002010-03-10T22:19:46.320+11:00Let the sunshine shines again.

You are doing a great thing for local passionate food lovers, who otherwise would not have a place for their voices to be heard.<br /><br />Btw there is going to be a new chinese restaurant at the corner of Forster and Montagu Streets, New Town. Drove past the area on way to Woolies New Town and saw a big Chinese Restaurant sign. If I can remember correctly, I think it is called Wah Yuen. NOt sure if it has already been opened or not. Anyone has any information on this place?Victorhttp://foodtrail.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-4818510550009589782010-03-10T21:26:41.880+11:002010-03-10T21:26:41.880+11:00Thanks Christina.

Didn't have a computer for a time and ended up using one at local library.<br />But just kept up with reading Rita and the comments of her clan.<br />Didn't like to clog up the machine as the centre is busy.<br />So you were spared lots of my inanities!

So we declared "we'll have what they're having!"<br />Ours was skewered steak and prawns with vegies,barbecued, hung vertically over a dish of potatoes, so all the juice dripped down, and you just slide it off as you like onto your plate, or into your mouth.<br />There is a proper name for this and I will endeavour to find out, but if this place ever comes to Hobart, and it's as good as the Melbourne one, it will blow us away!!!!<br />Had THE best fetta I've ever tasted in the greek salad too. Was going to ask them where it came from, but in the excitement of the moment, I forgot.<br />I have a picture of this dish on my phone and will endeavour to get this to you!<br />You can tell I'm excited can't you?!!Christinanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-84615773771724771202010-03-10T19:39:49.971+11:002010-03-10T19:39:49.971+11:00Chopsticks use damn tripe imstead of chicken, gros...Chopsticks use damn tripe imstead of chicken, gross, Doms is the way to go!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-80676786327575383692010-03-10T19:02:16.356+11:002010-03-10T19:02:16.356+11:00Agreed Anon 6.16 and Sir G - we all love Doms.

I was afraid, from what he told me last time I saw him last year, that he was closing down at the end of last year, but he is still open, so I am happy about that. Long may he trade.<br />Thanks Sir G - just my car cacked itself and required 3 days at the mechanics, so I have had to bus to work in the wee hours of dawn (which = 2 bus trips to work then 2 more trips home, which equals a damned long time travelling and waiting for buses), combined with an intensive workload at work has rendered me unconscious when I have reached home at night, cooked tea then finally collapsed into bed!Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05721723151185687327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-91327784772266198012010-03-10T18:45:33.101+11:002010-03-10T18:45:33.101+11:00Hurray for Dom.
