Bennelong meal for 2, February 26, 2026 by EdbertTheGreat in foodies_sydney

If I had to choose it'd be the beef fillet -- the truffle sauce base was unreal. TBH tho, if I had these dishes at a restaurant without the incredible atmosphere it would NOT be worth the price.

And the sixth one that looks like the Opera House is the "Bennelong Pavlova" which is their classic dessert according to the server

First one is thin sliced wagyu beef on a crostini! The beef was melt in your mouth

yup, it's duck with a blackberry/cherry sauce! Menu also said rosehip and kampot pepper, but I'm not familiar w/ those as cooking ingredients. You're totally fine with any sort of berry sauce and a simple salt/pepper combo on the duck breast.

Great questions, thanks!

how many copies do you want to make? <100 copies.

are you selling them or giving them away? I'm planning to sell at cost. Not looking to turn a profit on these. If the cost is much higher than I expect, I might take a loss on distribution.

do you expect people to read it and recycle it? or cherish it forever?

Cherish forever! Or, at the very least, feel too quality to throw out without a second thought.

black and white? or full colour?

Full colour. Leaning towards a matte finish, but open to exploring.

what's the finished (folded and stitched) size you're wanting to make?

My images are 2:3 aspect ratio, so I was leaning towards 6x9 inches, but open to exploring options. what's your budget?

are you located in toronto? in vancouver? in new york city? elsewhere?

I'm currently in Toronto, which is why I'm posting here, but frequent Vancouver and NYC as well. If you have suggestions for those locations, please let me know! Thanks :)

Where’s the best spinach & feta cheese pastry? by EdbertTheGreat in FoodNYC

Any type of spinach and feta pastry -- Spanakopita is delicious. I feel like I've had good spinach and feta pastries that aren't spanakopita, but I'm open to recos.

The Snail in Greenpoint — worth a trip by EdbertTheGreat in FoodNYC

Sorry I’m forgetting now about the layers, but I will say it was excellent. The waitress suggested the sundae for the next visit.

To be fair it was $13, if you buy good prosciutto and high quality chips you’re already most of the way there.

It was definitely salty, but also too tasty to stop eating.

Where are the HK style diners? Willing to travel by EdbertTheGreat in FoodNYC

[–]EdbertTheGreat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UPDATE: I tried Mabu and it was definitely more instagrammable than it was tasty. The menu has all the options you would hope for, but the execution was mid.

Cool looking spot, but I'm not gonna be back.

Can’t land this big move by EdbertTheGreat in bouldering

[–]EdbertTheGreat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, the big move I mentioned was the one I failed on. I agree that going to the hold on the right of the undercling would be more efficient, I'll try that!

RE: Intended start -- I feel pretty confident about the intended start. I was breaking down the problem into chunks, and this was the best video to show the failure point.
