So Pho so good

We found this great restaurant byline at An's (Vietnamese) in Greenfield Pde Bankstown yesterday. It may also finally teach me how to pronounce this delicious dish (and An's rare beef noodle pho was truly delicious).

We trawled around the Bondi Markets for the first time this morning after killing our extra end of daylight saving hour at our fave Gertrude and Alice in Hall St.

I loved Nth Bondi PS (site of the markets); only 270 pupils learning how to learn opposite the beach on the most expensive real estate strip on the eastern seaboard (the school was built for over 800 kids apparently).

The markets disappointed me: a mixture of Asian imported bling and beach bohemia mixed in with some pretty twee looking local fashion. We much prefer the urban flea market edge of the Rozelle & Glebe markets.

Sabbaba was quiet at lunch today. The end of daylight saving has confused everybody. To end off our foodie weekend in Sydney we found our first artisan baker on the corner of Warners & Glenayr Avenues in Nth Bondi and celebrated by buying a $10 loaf of bread.

Miss E attended her first wedding this weekend and had a ball apparently. She took her first (little) steps unassisted this week. We saw her in action on Thursday night.

hi Judy
Sounds like a great weekend! Very envious of your meal at Sabbaba - the best kept cafe secret in Sydney if not Australia. Can't wait to throw down another "Algerian" with you the next time we go to the COOGE!

Yeah, those markets are twee. I mean, how much call can anyone possibly have for a lime green tee-shirt proclaiming: "I came, I saw, I chundered"? Precious little, I'd wager.
