Rob turns Twenty One @ Forty One

I havnet blogged in a long while, but last nights dinner deserves a post.
Rob took a small group of us out to Forty-One, which for all you "clarets" out there, is located on level 42 of Chifley Tower. It was truly an amazing experience, and for what Rob paid, it bloody better have been.

Where do i start?

Firstly, the view from the private room we had was AWESOME. Shame i couldnt get a photo of it, due to the reflection of the glass.

The food. Well what can i say? I admit that i am an uncultured swine and i really couldln't tell you why it was so good, in fact, i went home and googled several of the things that i ate.

The full menu can be found here. there were 7 courses in all, and each was spectacularly prepared.

Unfortunately, my camera skills are not up to scratch but there are photos of ...


Roast Boneless Rack Of Gippsland Lamb, Creamed Parsley & Leeks,

Sauteed Potato Gnocchi, Black Olive Infused Jus (1999)




Coconut and Vanilla Panna Cotta With Pineapple Sorbet



We got Rob some poker chips, which I hope to use soon :D

More about me!

You are a WEDL--Wacky Emotional Destructive Leader. This makes you a Anarchist.

You don't give a damn. When push comes to shove, you just forget about it--it's just not worth the heartache. What this means for others is that dealing with you can be aggravating, because they find they can't get you motivated about things they care about. What this means for you is that you are happier, calmer, and saner then they are on their best days.

You are near-immune to criticism, and those who know you well acknowledge and respect that. You may come across as lazy, but the truth is that you find little to get worked up about. Regardless, you have slews of friends, because they are fascinated by your world view, jealous of your lifestyle, and drawn to the fact that you are hilarious to be around.

You are a pillar in a sea of hot-bloodedness. You have a sweet tooth.

20 Questions to being a Better Person


Your score as a human being is 83.


You are close to ideal. So close, and yet so far. Amusing, really, to watch someone squirm so close to the vaunted ranks of perfection and still remain so very, very ordinary. It is all one can do to keep one's ingratiating smile from polluting one's perfect face.

Actually, one recommends you take the quiz again and lie a little.
