View From Your Table

Sydney, Australia

Writes the reader:

From The Centre, a B&B at a former convent in Sydney. Vegemite involves a learning curve for Americans.

And this from our regular commenter Giuseppe Scalas:

The town is San Teodoro, in Sardinia. Giuseppe writes:

The restaurant sources its fish from its own salt-water lagoon, on which it is situated.

Octopus salad

Mussels marinière

Gilthead sea bream catalan style

Mullet roe with fruit salad

Raw tuna with walnuts and pine nuts

Ricotta cheese mousse with grated tuna roe

Tuna roe bruschetta

Breaded vegetables

And this is just the entrées. The rest of the meal included spaghetti with clams, roasted fish and prawns, dessert, fruit, coffee and liquors.

Cover your ears, O sailor, lest the sirens’ song diverts you from your course.

Happy day!
