What’s Your Favourite Food?

Tough question, but if you were on a deserted island and could only eat one thing for the rest of your life what would it be?

Why The New Woolworths Logo?

You may have missed but the fresh food people at Woolworths have come up with a fresh logo.

Get use to it because you’ll be seeing it for at least the next generation. But come to thing of it does anyone remember what the last logo was?

This one is just as unforgettable!

Cafe Nest - Potts Point

By Rae Mozejko

It’s Tuesday 12:30pm and I have arrived in Potts Point for a meeting. After wandering down the leafy Victoria St looking for a bite to eat I land at the quaint Nest, a small café sprawling onto the street.

A friendly and genuine waiter helps me choose a small dish. Pears poached in ginger and cinnamon with mascarpone on sour cherry toast, accompanied by a pot of fresh earl grey tea. A drizzling of maple syrup and a dusting of icing sugar complete the pear dish sensationally.

Seated around me there aren’t many, however they are an eclectic mix; the young trendy male with horse fur loafers scribbling in a recycled paper diary, the real estate agent in a ‘this means business’ suit, and the heritage listed ladies of Potts Point enjoying a cup of tea, darling.

The sour cherry toast is well balanced with the mascarpone, and the pears and syrup kick in a naturally sweet taste with plenty of bite. Finishing up I am asked if I would care for more, however taken by the quaint but comforting decor I rather enter into a conversation about the creative music endeavors of my waiter and discuss the community feeling behind the feature wall spotted with children’s drawings and local talent.
