Far North Queensland is my happy place. Not only because we used to live here and some of our best friends still do , but also the food is so fresh, varied, vibrant and tropical!!! Here’s to a week in Cairns and beyond, catching up with friends over long lunches, revisiting old haunts, and enjoying a curry feast in the rainforest!!
So you don’t think we always eat in pubs while on the road, here’s a sample of last weeks cooking onboard. We use the bbq and the diesel stove top a lot, add salads and generally eat inside the van as it’s too cold outside ( even in Queensland! ).
That sums up the current situation. Travelling thru Outback Queensland, we came across this low cost camp on a cattle station between Barcaldine and Longreach. Dunblane station is a 15,000ha wool sheep property that offers 5 camp sites. We stayed at the Gretel Cattle Yards, parked under a water tower and surrounded with acres of green pastures. I had the phone on sunset Timelapse while preparing dinner, and filling up the hot tub with artesian water. Sadly the hot tub didn’t work out, but the sunset was splendid and bbq dinner pretty good. Closest neighbours were 3 klm away, emus came to visit in the morning, and we were given a tour of the woodshed down the road before we headed off further west.
Eating on the road, visiting friends and family along the Queensland coast. Last week was a mix of #casual pub meals, cafe #brunches, generous home cooked dinners and quick bites while on board.
Last week of cooking at home. A blur of brown looking dinners, #quickandeasy to put together as we’re getting ready for another road trip.
It’s been a week of eating fun! From cheerful hotpot, to elegant starter, appliance testing, cafe brunch and finishing with home cooked classics.
So last week, our fridge broke down and needed replacing ( is 13 years a decent lifespan for a fridge or am I the only one suspecting programmed obsolescence? )

One of our busiest week so far, with the return of the dinner parties thanks to birthday celebrations for @annecsteen and @kath_ywalton
