Curious about Enoteca Sileno and the Enoteca Vino Bar for ages, we were finally in this part of town and decided to drop by. Judging by the breakfast we had, we'd be back for a few more meals!
First up was the rustic-looking bread and butter pudding made with Italian Panetone. It was served warm, which allowed the luscious lashings of chocolate custard to become molten puddles of flavour. It was also studded with candied fruit, just like those used in a panforte. The best of all was that the panetone was nice and moist and not claggy. It was also served with a pot of whipped ricotta and cream, slightly sweetened so it was good to on it's own!
We had also ordered the ricotta fritters, which turned out to be gloriously fluffy golden pancakes drizzled with honey and scattered with fresh fruit. Amazing. Even better than the ricotta hotcakes at Replete Providore, although maybe not as visually stunning.
After breakfast we had a stroll through the foodstore which was packedd full of Italian treats, worth a visit on it's own!

The Delibrook Lucky Dollar was operated by Richard and Olive Hook. The original store built by Lulu & Casper Thompson. Richard & Olive Hook purchased the original Thompson store from Ron and Shirley Sedore in 1979 and operated it as a Lucky Dollar Foodstore under the store name of Delibrook. The Delibrook was eventually demolished with the building of the new Freshmart in 1985 a bit further north and closer to the Northbrook Hotel operated by John and Elaine Bolton.

I was really lucky to get a shot of the storekeeper out in front of his store in Siena, Tuscany. The back streets of Siena are labyrinth of little stores and houses. Siena along with Florence is very popular with tourists, but if you venture off the main piazzas there's quiet lanes and streets like this one to explore and take in the Tuscan spirit.
Siena is about an hour from Florence and is home to the famous Il Palio horse race in July and August of each year.
A multilingual bulletin board outside the Tap Five market. A young guy we met who grew up on Saint Martin said that every kid here has to study French (the official language), English, and Spanish. But these studies don't necessarily take, especially for people not working in the tourist trade. Two guys I asked for directions, a cop and a security guard, didn't know any English. The latter used a few French terms I recognized, though -- a ronde, a gauche, etc. -- so I was able to figure out what he was saying. ("Oh, so now you speak French," said my wife.)
The thick solid bechamel sauce smothered the beef filling, but when eaten on it's own, the buttery stodge was quite nice.
Each savoury dish was paired with remarkably fresh salad leaves that were combined with sweet cheery tomatoes and crumbled smooth Persian-style fetta cheese. Nice and healthy. Had the salad leaves been dressed with a bit of oil and vinegar, it would have been a perfect side salad.
There was also a rather sweet and curry-spiced tomato chutney served on the side. Neither the pie nor lasagne needed it.

If you come to Kyneton, and all the big names are fully booked, with a bit of effort, you might be able to squeeze yourself into a quiet corner and partake in a rather decent light lunch.

- Kyneton calling, by Jane Willson, Epicure, The Age, October 20, 2009 NO. 30 LADLE FOODSTORE Christine McTaggart came to Kyneton via Sydney, Melbourne, Woodend and a career in marketing to open her cafe and deli a year ago. Ladle offers speciality cheeses, local smallgoods, a communal table and more intimate rooms. The plan - when the liquor licence materialises - is for live music at weekends with antipasto, cheese platters and a mix of local and Melbourne artists. Open seven days.
Tap Five was a little market in Orient Village beside Orient Beach. We regularly bought things for breakfast and lunch here: eggs, juice, bananas, apples, soft cheese, jam, and wine, plus fresh baguettes and croissants in the morning. I also bought one of those round spinach pies for each of two lunches -- pretty good.

IN OTHER cafe news, Alphington's APTE, recently named Delicious magazine's cafe of the year in a popular vote, has been sold. Nathan Toleman, who with his wife Sarah Foletta opened the former milkbar three years ago, said the couple would be handing over the reins at the end of the week to an unnamed buyer new to hospitality.
The pair has another project on the boil, a cafe that will be similar to APTE, this time on the Carlton/Brunswick border. They hope to open around July.
Even I only used this transport interchange for maybe 1 or 2 times when I was a kid, the unique spatial arrangement of the complex still evolved from my memory when I re-visited and entered the fenced off, narrow queue of the terminus.

Construction started in 1983, with the multi-storey car park opened in April 1986. The Transport Complex connected to the pier with ferry services serving mainly between Tsuen Wan and Central. The Complex provides passage interchanges to the bus, van and taxi services directly from the pier. The building programmes also included government departments (e.g. Identical Card issue), and other retail booths & food stores. The building has however been disconnected to the central Tsuen Wan areas since the Tsuen Wan MTR service operated even before the completion of the building. The ferry service was closed in 2000 due to the more convenient use of road transport from Tsuen Wan to Central through the West Cross Harbour Tunnel, causing the Complex to be further under-used.
The use of individual staircase connecting to each of the bus stop termini was first used in this building - an unique machine-like design to avoid large loads of pedestrians to cross the bus platforms for safety reason.
The most interesting moment of the building was the establishment of a driving school on the 9th and 10th floors of the building since 1999.
Most of the bus routes using the Complex have relocated their termini to Tsuen Wan West Station Public Transport Interchange in 2003, and left a larger area of the building into disuse. Under the MTR Corporation's TW5 property development project, the carpark Complex is planned to be closed from 5 Feb 2013 and will be demolished and replaced by residential towers.

We stumbled across a pack of Ginger, Jasmine and White Tea at Minh Phat in Abbotsford, thinking that the white tea would have less caffeine and would make a nice after-dinner drink.
On checking the internet, it seems that depending on the tea, the caffeine levels may vary. *duh*
White Tea references:
White tea contains buds and young tea leaves, with higher caffeine than older leaves, suggesting the caffeine content of white teas may be higher than that of green teas.
- Caffeine in White Tea - White Tea Central
All teas contain caffeine to some extent, but white tea contains less than others teas.
...green tea is measured to hold about 20 to 30 mg per serving, while white tea contains about half that. Black tea, on the other hand, contains 40 to 60 mgs. For comparison, black coffee contains about 120 to 150 mgs.

- Foodie paradise? What a capital idea - Epicure, The Age by Allan Campion, October 31, 2006
“I’ve also been bowled over by the stunning new Minh Phat in Abbotsford. For more than 25 years this foodstore has sold Asian ingredients in Victoria Street and at the Queen Victoria Market. Now the proprietors have taken a huge step across Victoria Street and opened an emporium of Asian ingredients. Huge, clearly laid out, beautifully lit and spacious, the store’s shelves are filled with every brand of fish sauce, curry powder, coconut milk and Chinese cooking wine you could ever need. One must-have product is the beautifully balanced Kim Vee Wong brand of soy sauce imported from Taiwan ($4 a litre). A bonus is that the floor staff speak English.”

The Neptune, New Jersey Shoprite operated under the "World Class" moniker and owned by Saker Shoprites/Foodarama. It includes a T-Mobile and AT&T phone store, Dunkin Donuts, a doctors office, a liquor store, a bank, and police substation. A newer location in Aberdeen looks almost the same inside, and has a jewelry store. Does anybody know when the Neptune location opened?

Curious about Enoteca Sileno and the Enoteca Vino Bar for ages, we were finally in this part of town and decided to drop by. Judging by the breakfast we had, we'd be back for a few more meals!
First up was the rustic-looking bread and butter pudding made with Italian Panetone. It was served warm, which allowed the luscious lashings of chocolate custard to become molten puddles of flavour. It was also studded with candied fruit, just like those used in a panforte. The best of all was that the panetone was nice and moist and not claggy. It was also served with a pot of whipped ricotta and cream, slightly sweetened so it was good to on it's own!
We had also ordered the ricotta fritters, which turned out to be gloriously fluffy golden pancakes drizzled with honey and scattered with fresh fruit. Amazing. Even better than the ricotta hotcakes at Replete Providore, although maybe not as visually stunning.
After breakfast we had a stroll through the foodstore which was packedd full of Italian treats, worth a visit on it's own!

This is the inside of a buffet on the Akçay beach. I shot without letting her know and it was a little improvised, I had to make a quick decision, but I would prefer to shoot by letting her know. I like the momentary changes of expression on people’s faces, maybe I could tell her how beautiful it is to smile. I hope next time.
Lake Mary, FL -- All the employees have left, the shelves are empty, and the doors are locked at many Albertsons locations in Florida. What's next for Albertsons is that each store is auctioning off the rest of the furniture, store fixture, and odds and ends. You could own a piece of history. The only other Albertsons location still open to shop at is in Altamonte Springs.
The auction is being conducted by SB Capital Group, LLC on Tuesday, June 12, 2012 starts at 10;05am at the Albertsons Lake Mary location. The preview of the auction items is from 9am - 10am. There is a 14% buyers premium and sales tax in effect for all auction items sold. For more information go to www.sbcapitalgroup.com/current_events
The next Albertsons Auction is at the Conroy Windermere Road location on Thursday, June 14, 2012
At first glance I thought this was a former Post Office which had become a co-operative store. Then realised it was both.
117 High Street, Aldeburgh, Suffolk, IP15 5AR
The webpage for this Co-op - the Aldeburgh Foodstore - makes a special point of stocking "a great choice of locally-sourced produce on your doorstep".
Short of time on this visit, we'll try to test their promise of: "a true flavour of East Anglia", the next time we're in Aldeburgh.

Julia saw that the other diners all seemed to be having smoked salmon in something or the other, so she went for this.
The generous folds of smoked salmon was smoky and rich, and really luscious!
Compared to that, the baked potato and ricotta cake didn't stand a chance, although it did stand quietly in the back preventing the salmon from overpowering your palate. The egg yolks were a bright orange, but it was a pity that the yolks were not runny, the way we liked it.

The exquisite aroma of ground coffee permeating my nostrils as I entered Cooper's foodstore on the corner of Church Street and Paradise Street in Liverpool city centre is one of my fondest and most enduring childhood memories . This remarkable department store , the North's answer to Fortnum & Mason , is still spoken of affectionately by Liverpool shoppers , despite it being over 40 years since its closure .
Founded in Glasgow in 1871 , Cooper's established themselves in Scotland before opening a Liverpool branch in 1895 . They were situated in Church Street and prided themselves on their extensive stock of quality foodstuffs . At the time of their inauguration their staff consisted of a mere 12 assistants but , by the outbreak of the Second World War , their payroll numbered over 1,100 people in 20 departments .
Throughout their existence Cooper's specialised in tea and coffee but also tempted the palate with such items as exotic fruits , fine wines , venison , pheasant , Manx kippers , Scottish salmon and cream cheese in 20 different flavours . They even marketed their own brands of furniture polish , butter , tea and dairy cream and , in keeping with their high-class reputation , they employed page boys to carry customers shopping out to their cars .
The first floor of the building was occupied by a spacious cafe with seating for over 900 people . Items such as bread and cakes were supplied by Cooper's own bakery . Initially the cafe was waitress-service only but they later introduced a self-service arrangement .
As Cooper's business deteriorated in the wake of the supermarket explosion , their bakery was closed . Four years later , in 1966 , their cafe also became a casualty . Sadly , almost tragically , Cooper's store itself closed its doors for the last time on March 11th 1972......Sometimes though , as I turn into Church Street from Paradise Street , I'm convinced that I catch a whiff of coffee on the breeze .

Curious about Enoteca Sileno and the Enoteca Vino Bar for ages, we were finally in this part of town and decided to drop by. Judging by the breakfast we had, we'd be back for a few more meals!
First up was the rustic-looking bread and butter pudding made with Italian Panetone. It was served warm, which allowed the luscious lashings of chocolate custard to become molten puddles of flavour. It was also studded with candied fruit, just like those used in a panforte. The best of all was that the panetone was nice and moist and not claggy. It was also served with a pot of whipped ricotta and cream, slightly sweetened so it was good to on it's own!
We had also ordered the ricotta fritters, which turned out to be gloriously fluffy golden pancakes drizzled with honey and scattered with fresh fruit. Amazing. Even better than the ricotta hotcakes at Replete Providore, although maybe not as visually stunning.
After breakfast we had a stroll through the foodstore which was packedd full of Italian treats, worth a visit on it's own!

Dreamers Awake - Paul Buckmaster
The Venetian Ghetto was the area of Venice in which Jews were compelled to live under the Venetian Republic. It is from its name in Italian ("ghetto"), that the English word "ghetto" is derived: in the Venetian language it was named "ghèto". The Venetian Ghetto (incidentally, the first Ghetto) was instituted in 1516, though political restrictions on Jewish rights and residences existed before that date.
Though it was home to a large number of Jews, the population living in the Venetian Ghetto never assimilated to form a distinct, "Venetian Jewish" ethnicity. Four of the five synagogues were clearly divided according to ethnic identity: separate synagogues existed for the German (the Scuola Grande Tedesca), Italian (the Scuola Italiana), Spanish and Portuguese (the Scuola Spagnola), and Levantine Sephardi communities (The Scola Levantina). The fifth, the Scuola Canton, is believed to have been either French, or a private synagogue for the families who funded its construction. Today, there are also populations of Ashkenazic Jews in Venice, mainly Lubavitchers who operate one of two kosher foodstores, a yeshiva, and the aforementioned Chabad synagogue.
In September 1938, the promulgation of the fascist racial laws deprived the Jews of civil rights, and the Jewish community entered a difficult period under the leadership first of Aldo Finzi and subsequently (from June 1940 onwards) of Professor Giuseppe Jona.
In September 1943, Italy changed from being an ally of Nazi Germany into an occupied country, and the Nazis started a systematic hunt for Jews in Venice as in other Italian cities. On 17 September, Professor Jona committed suicide rather than hand over to the German authorities a list of Jewish community residents.
In November 1943, Jews were declared 'enemy aliens' in accordance with the manifesto of the Italian Social Republic, to be arrested and their property seized. Although some Jews managed to escape to neutral Switzerland or Allied-occupied southern Italy, over two hundred were rounded up, most between 5 December 1943 (when approximately 150 were arrested) and late summer 1944. They were held at the city's Marco Foscarini college, the women's prison on Giudecca, the prison at Santa Maria Maggiore and subsequently at Fossoli concentration camp, before being deported, in most cases, to Auschwitz-Birkenau in 1944. Those arrested later in 1944 included some 20 residents of a Jewish convalescence home, the Casa di Ricovero Israelitica (including Venice's Chief Rabbi, Adolfo Ottolenghi, who chose to follow the fate of his fellow deportees) and 29 from a Jewish hospital. Most of those arrested in the summer of 1944 spent time incarcerated at Risiera di San Sabba concentration camp, Trieste. Although a figure of two hundred and five Jewish deportees from Venice between November 1943 and August 1944 is often quoted, one source give the higher figure of 246, which includes those deported to Trieste, some of whom died there, and a smaller number of arrests after this point up until the end of the war. Only 8 Jewish residents of Venice emerged from the death camps. The 1938 Jewish population of Venice (2000) was reduced by the war's end to 1500, or in some sources 1050.
What was Europe's first ghetto is now a lively and popular district of the city where the religious and administrative institutions of the Jewish Community and its five synagogues still persist.
Today, the Ghetto is still a center of Jewish life in the city. The Jewish Community of Venice, that counts 500 people, is of such cultural vitality that it is often a centre for the cultural life of the entire city.
Surf Market Summer Barbecue

Every Friday and Saturday during the summer (Memorial Day to Labor Day) Surf Market runs this barbecue. They cook great tri-tip, pork ribs, and chicken. I especially like the tri-tip.
There is a good 3D red-cyan anaglyph of the barbeque here.

The Neptune, New Jersey Shoprite operated under the "World Class" moniker and owned by Saker Shoprites/Foodarama. A newer location in Aberdeen looks almost the same inside. Does anybody know when the Neptune location opened?

banana bread $13.50
- Toasted house made banana and coconut bread with honey labna, pistachios, & roasted seasonal fruit.
We all loved the toasted banana and coconut bread on it's own! Full of chunks of banana and shredded coconut. It didn't really need all the toppings.

APTE's crunchy-edged banana bread - when you eventually find it under a mound of stewed rhubarb and honeyed labna - is sweet, sticky and loaded with coconut, while the ricotta hotcakes are plump, light and golden and served with poached fruit and a ricotta flavoured with orange zest.

IN OTHER cafe news, Alphington's APTE, recently named Delicious magazine's cafe of the year in a popular vote, has been sold. Nathan Toleman, who with his wife Sarah Foletta opened the former milkbar three years ago, said the couple would be handing over the reins at the end of the week to an unnamed buyer new to hospitality.
The pair has another project on the boil, a cafe that will be similar to APTE, this time on the Carlton/Brunswick border. They hope to open around July.
Another from Burnt Oak, this time past the top of the Watling on Burnt Oak Broadway looking at Stag Lane. Changed a bit over the years but the big old department store building with the clock on it is still there, though it is a Poundstretcher now. The post office is a Romanian foodstore now, and the old NatWest bank where Is et up my first account, that's some kind of amusement arcade of which there are, inexplicably, several around this junction. Obviously more useful than having a bank. The traffic rolled past as I sketched on this sunny morning, I had to add the colour afterwards though because I was getting bored drawing up there. All more scenes from the area I grew up in, though I live across the sea. When my family finally move from here as is inevitable I won't come back as often so am sketching it while I can.
Julia saw that the other diners all seemed to be having smoked salmon in something or the other, so she went for this.
The generous folds of smoked salmon was smoky and rich, and really luscious!
Compared to that, the baked potato and ricotta cake didn't stand a chance, although it did stand quietly in the back preventing the salmon from overpowering your palate. The egg yolks were a bright orange, but it was a pity that the yolks were not runny, the way we liked it.
