Banana bread in Paddington, Sydney


Day in Paddington, Sydney
Originally uploaded by timbo262
Mel and I headed for Paddington market in Sydney a few weeks back, we picked at some of the market food along the way and checked out the stalls but most items we're not really to our style - still worth a look though and a great atmosphere around the food area where two blokes were playing guitars and singing folk type songs!

On the walk back from Paddington to the city we stumbled upon a great (and hidden) outdoor cafe area at the back of Lilifields Cafe on Oxford St. I went for my usual Mocha and Mel (not being a coffee drinker) had a hot chocolate. We seem to have both become mildly addicted to banana bread so had a rather large piece of that to keep us going - banana bread is really just like banana cake with a healthy sounding name and probably even more sugar! Anyway who cares about that, it tastes nice especially with some honey.

The shopping in Paddington is fantastic, and that's coming from someone who generally hates shopping. There is a g-star raw shop as well as American Apparel and many other local and popular well known labels.

It made me think about trying Paddington to live when our current rental in Balmain runs out - who knows but it would be closer to the eastern beaches...

Cheers
Tim
