Foreign food

Treats From Home on level two of the Skygarden Arcade (off the Pitt St Mall) is a store that sells imported British groceries and souvenirs. The emphasis is heavily on junk food, which explains why CM and I make a pilgrimage there approximately once a month. His faves are fixed as he spent his early childhood in England; mine are gradually taking shape. A beverage I've developed a fondness for is Ben Shaws Dandelion & Burdock. Soft drink made from a flower and a thistle - genius! The numerous crisps also seem to pack more of a wallop than our local equivalents. After a healthy dinner tonight, while tuning in to rugby league's State Of Origin III, I treated myself to bags of Flamin' Hot Monster Munch and Salt & Vinegar Squares (both by Walkers). They were delish. If you live in Sydney and fancy sampling some new snacks or sodas, I recommend paying this shop a visit.
