We had an enjoyable few days with family in Canberra, but what amazed us most was Max's diet. These pages already record how a selected a Sushi bar for his 5th birthday party. Well, we had three more exotic meals which we wolfed down on consecutive evenings and his tastes range further and further. On Friday it was Vietnamese, Saturday - Turkish, and on Sunday a Moroccan banquet. The first two were produced by local restaurants, but the last was all down to Emily and Rebecca who bought the right ingredients and then prepared a faultless ethnic meal in Emily's new Tajine. For those not acquainted with a Tajine it's an unusually shaped earthen cooking vessel with a high cover to catch evaporating steam and recycle it.
Congratulations to the chefs and Max for eating such a variety of food. Note that there's nothing European here, and that seems to be the trend here. I haven't yet seen a Burmese restaurant, but one cannot be far away!
We finished off the meal with sparklers for Max's enjoyment, if not Emily who burned herself in the process.
