I'm in Geelong for a conference and have eaten solidly for three days. There's something irresistible about hotel breakfast buffets and the endless cookies and cake at conference breaks. But I've missed my street food haunts and I have some time to kill before my flight and decide to get something simple to eat.
A Sydney food blog celebrating the world's great culinary underbelly. We are ham-fisted enthusiasts who dig traditional foods, hole-in-the-wall restaurants, and international supermarkets of mystery.
