Bush Bakery take every January off every year, and although most of their patrons aren't 'happy' at least they recognise that the owners deserve a break. And who can begrudge them a holiday in the sun rather than the depths of a Tasmanian winter? There are other places to grab a coffee in Cygnet. As my grandma says: don't sweat the small stuff. It's no biggie to take a break, it would be far worse if they closed for good.Madgenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-74831492512401857162011-08-03T11:57:15.780+10:002011-08-03T11:57:15.780+10:00Hi Giselle, don't worry about the gutless anon...Hi Giselle, don't worry about the gutless anonymous comments-they've been getting stuck into me for years now, thats why I have comment moderation on my blog to weed them out. Though no one can stop negative comments on other peoples blogs its best just to ignore them and I've learned never to engage or try to reason with them-over my blogging time people have said stuff to get a rise out of me and then attack me when I've responded-its a viscous cycle and took its toll on me a while back but now I just let it roll off me.<br />Keep up the good work, thats all that matters.<br />cheers SteveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-16028171719794902582011-08-03T10:49:10.964+10:002011-08-03T10:49:10.964+10:00This is why I don't comment usually on these b...This is why I don't comment usually on these blogs - because simple words become complicated.

His quality and range were the finest down our way.<br />There is a new place opening in Dom's old place at Blackmans Bay shops from Thursday.<br />Called Yu's (I think) it will be open Tues-Sunday 5-9pm.<br />The menu is smaller than Dom's but has some Szechuan stuff on it, as well as many old ``favourites''.<br />The menu was one of dozens in a bag at the restaurant today. I hope it is a ripper and will give it a go on Saturday for a takeaway.<br />Good luck and good eating.

What I find questionable is that before Gourmet Traveller (for whom you both contribute) announced that The Stackings was nominated for the their Best Regional restaurant award you scored them at 15/20 yet the day after the Gourmet Traveller nominations were announced you then scored them 16.5/20 but between this time, the restaurant had been closed. <br />How do you account for this?Just Curiousnoreply@blogger.com
