I actually went to that house just recently.
The friends that I knew that lived there all worked in hospitality. I didn't have dinner but it was bbq kangaroo on a bed of salad with an exquisite mash - and I love mash! I did try a slice of the kangaroo and it was absolutely delish.
I did have a glass of wine though, and the red that came out was just amazing. So smooth, it was probably one of the best red wines I have drunk in awhile. Next came out a bottle of white and even then it was pretty nice.
I couldn't say no to dessert, titled a Rhubarb Suprise, it resembled a crumble and served with a dollop of cream. Absolutely fantastic.
And that's what you get for living in a hospitality house - a chef, a restaurant manager and a cocktail bartender. The kitchen is decked with a KitchenAid, Global knives, espresso machine and variety of commercial cooking pans and pots.
What I also adored was the company and conversation. We looked up words in Spanish we didn't know, talked about travel, outdoor climbing and just the love of life. We talked about food, lots of food, wine, and dining out. We chatted about friends, and being friends and before I knew it, midnight was approaching and I needed to head off home.
I went home thinking how lovely it must be to be in a home full of life, love and shared interest in food and wine.
