Today Darren, Linda, Emilie, SM and I went for lunch at Movida Spanish Restaurant in the city on my recommendation. Movida is a 2 chef hats restaurant. Arriving at the restaurant at noon we promptly placed our orders for some tapas and racions. We had the following tapas: Fried silky croquette flavoured with leek and mahon cheese, Hand filleted Cantabrian artisan anchovy on crouton with smoked tomato sorbet, and Baby leek wrapped in brik pastry served with a chicken liver parfait.
For racions we had the char grilled lamb, beef waghu and paella.
What a wonderful lunch! And thanks Darren! Every agreed the paella was the best dish out of the day's show but the lamb, the croquette and liver parfait also were high on our list!
We adjourned to Crown Casino and made our way for latte, cappuccino with baked cheese cake at Greco European Grill at South Bank. What a relaxing way to finish the afternoon with some nice company, great coffee and sweets!

A couple of weeks ago we were invited out to the Lows for a dinner of crabs ala Fatty Crabs style, fresh steamed prawns, 四季斗, and fried rice at their Vermont South home. We got to know their have sold their home and will be handing over the property to the new owners in mid July. They are moving to a St Kilda Road apartment to be closer to the city and to enjoy the conveniences of a city dwelling! The Lows are heading back to Asia for a few years but will continue their association with Melbourne no doubt. We are going to miss them.....
