What we had today :)

Getting fat...fat...fat...ate outside whole day today :) We woke up around 9am on this beautiful second day into winter and decided to have brekki at the Blue Duck in Cottesloe. We went there following one of my cousins' recommendation because of the great breakfasts they serve. Well, to tell you the truth, I think the food they serve is "so so". I ordered the Blue Duck full brekki while Jin is happy with just becon and poached eggs. Their menu can be found here. Although the brekki left much to be desired, the atmosphere of eating on the restaurant balcony next to Cottesloe beach made up for it.


In the afternoon, we went to one of the wineries in Swan Valley, the Fish Tail. It is a very small winery and therefore, you can only purchase their wines directly through their cellar. They don't sell their products through any of those liquor stores in Perth. I think we went there about 2 years ago and got some "Pink Salmon" and it was fantastic so we decided to go back to get more :) "Pink Salmon" is not your typical red wine because the red merlot grapes skin was only allowed to be in contact for 12 hours only to give that brilliant pink colour. The grapes were fermented in stainless steel container and hence, unwooded and the taste is crisp and sweet without the "dryness" of typical reds. Check them out next time you head to the Swan Valley and you will not be disappointment!
