Night Noodle Markets

Wednesday night is Dancing night for most of the SRF on the Northern side of the bridge.....funny how we have to cross the bridge to get to it! Anyway, after dancing it has become a bit of a ritual to head over to Starbucks for a bevvie of some sort and sit in the cool night air to laugh over our dancing escapades and generally cool down before we get in the car to go home. This Wednesday night brought a slight twist to our usual routine. "Starbucks is not for tonight" came the cry and off we bolted (literally with G'Nick dragging me down the street) to find an alternative....this was when we stumbled upon the wonderful Night Noodle Markets held in Hyde park during October for Good Food Month.

The dancing party in the thick of it all.

Now when I say stumbled, I mean "Bolted" towards after I revealed that they do proffertjes with loads of yummy toppings!

We're not sure how to pronounce it, so we just say "proffertijesesjeses"

These are what the little gourmet delights are: a dozen small fluffy dutch pancakes covered in hot chocolate fudge with fresh strawberries and whipped cream with a generous dusting of sweet icing sugar. Or you could go the maple syrup and strawberry option, or you could have mixed berries, or Caramel fudge or banannas or other wonderful sweet things!

To eat them, one is given a few toothpicks! odd I know, but once we were all ensconced on the low wall of the main fountain we tucked in and covered ourselves with sweet sticky fudge, syrup and icing sugar! YUM!

Just as a side note, year 12 have now finished for the year and it was time for the annual detergent-ing of the fountain.
very surreal!
