Wow! I feel like you're my tour guide... I agree, keep 'em coming!

Enjoy those crab legs,

two nights ago, we headed to chinatown for dinner.  it was a place called "tai" something and it was close the arch on the north end of the street.  yesterday, we took a tour to the blue mountains and saw the three sisters, then back to leura for lunch, then to the zoo and finally the olympic village.  last night we had tapaa and paella at capitan torres.  nice place!

Alan and Family, you have seen more of Sydney and surrounds in a week than most Sydneyites do in a life time.

Keep up the pace and well done.

[broadway]

Dave's right! Keep it up, and you'll find yourself in New Zealand in no time
Safe travels,
Dom

The line looks like it's for Emperor's Puffs.  The Chinese copied this from the Italian Zeppoli.    Dominick

they were tasty, but very small.

Hey Alan,
     What did ya expect for 30 cents each? Next time you know to get 40 of 'em 
Hey Dominick,
     You mean, they got it from Italy like they did the fishing reel

"...deep-fried dough balls, topped with powdered sugar and filled with custard or jelly."
Oh man, they sound good! My kids would probably live on those, given the choice

Sounds like Malasadas

Probably every nationality fries dough and sweetens it.  Justin you are right given the choice we would all eat sweets if it was healthy.  Zeppolis aren't always filled with custard or jelly.  Just fried dough with powdered sugar is good eating, just like beignets.  By the way, I've been working on gluten free beignets.  When I get it right, I'll send you the recipe.  I had gluten free chocolate cake for my birthday yesterday.  Dominick
