Thursday

Julian at Barney's of Bookham

Julian, my brother-in-law, stayed with us for a couple of weeks over Christmas, just before he left for his second deployment to Afghanistan.

We took him to Barney's of Bookham, as we do with all visitors, to sample chef Allan Smith's scrumptious menu. Bookham may be about 35 kilometres from Yass on the Hume Highway towards Melbourne, but the drive to this roadside diner is worth the effort — the homemade burgers and pies are too good to be true, as are the prices.

I just hope Allan whips up some of his experimental escargot pies again soon ... they sold so fast last time that I missed out.
