Barossa's delectable local produce

When on a recent tour of the winelands over there I popped in on a Saturday morning and started with a trademark and gooey organic egg and home-cured organic bacon roll.

It makes it all the better when you have engaging aussie yakka behind the stalls and plenty of roaring laughter (that shattered the brain after the excesses of a Bonnie the night before). They do it so well. Connecting fantastic locally produced food with local characters in a vibrant atmosphere. I could have spent the day here gorging on pigeon pies, blackberry frangipani tarts, and snowcream truffles, washed down with some of Radford Riesling.
