Now comes the food photos from my Australia and New Zealand trip. Yes I ate kangaroo and it tasted like medium/rare steak. Everything else are probably stuff you can find in the States.

Found on a street in Melbourne full of bakeries. Had we not just stuffed our faces at lunch prior to coming here, we would’ve given in to countless temptations.

Why do I only find rambutan in Asia and the South Pacific? Very juicy, tastes sort of like lychee.

Nothing you haven’t tried before, but it was one of the best seafood pasta I’ve had.

Crocodile tasted like overcooked chicken. This entree cost $46AUD / approx $36USD, but we got a view of the Sydney Opera House. :)

Kilpatrick oysters are an Aussie specialty  – baked oysters sprinkled with bacon and Worcestershire sauce. We tried it at Omaros Bros in Gold Coast, who is supposed to be famous for this dish. I honestly still prefer my oysters raw.

Lastly, this bird is so fat that it might as well be food.
