Item complete - See snow (#28)

We recently returned from a trip to New Zealand where we stayed in Methven and visited Mt Hutt.  THe drive up the mountain was terrifying, but the snow was worth it.  One the second trip up, we experienced snow falling, which was magical (although it made the drive much scarier!)

Item complete - Eat at a restaurant with a AGFG Chef Hat score (#22)

When I set this item, it was inspired by a similar list on which the author had "Eat at a Michelin Starred restaurant" as an item.  In Australia, we don't have the Michelin guide, we have the Australian Good Food Guide.

Here are all the restaurants in Brisbane with AGFG awards

As it turns out, I've eaten at quite a few of them previously!  A couple have been special nights out for hubby and I (Sono, Cha Cha Char) and a few were for work functions (Restaurant Rapide, Sake, Mario at the Dining Room, Rhubarb Rhubarb, Bretts Wharf).  But I felt that ticking off an item for something done outside this 18 month challenge was cheating, and last night was our 4th wedding anniversary so off we went to Jellyfish Restaurant.

Its a lovely resturant and our waiter (Marc) was fabulous - casual, attentive but not annoying and the food came out super fast.  Hubby had whole baby barra crispy fried with a soy and spring onion sauce and it was amazing.  I was less impressed with my crumbed ocean trout pieces and yoghurt sauce, but the papaya salad we shared was great.  Hubby's dessert of croissant bread and butter pudding with salted almond ice cream and truffle custard was spectacular.  I was so full I didn't have dessert but settled for a nice liqueur.

I have another item ticked off my list too, but have to charge my camera to post about it...
