My first WOW meal of 2010 in the Hunter Valley

Work has been so crazy and you get into that mode where  you have completely forgotten where the off switch is. The crazy begins to be normal . So it was just perfect timing to pack a day bag jump into our car and head north to the Hunter Valley for some great food, wine and to see Diana Krall in concert which was held a beautiful winery called Bimbadgen.

It was exactly what was needed, we came back to Sydney, rejuvenated with a car boot full of food treasures. Our Hunter loot was full of amazing  Kieth Tulloch and Tempus Two wines

, beautifully soft & ripe cheeses from the smelly cheese shop , some chilli chocolates that packed a punch and Ryan got  Turkish Delight liquor which his experimenting with for our next cocktail night . Yet by far the most amazing thing from the weekend was my meal at the Rock. the amuse bouche was till this date the most amazing meal of 2010. I will go back just for that soft ravioli filled with mushrooms and quail egg,which when you cut open the  oozed out over the plate and into the amazing foie gras sauce…. each bite was heaven.
