floridita baked goodsWe’ve been par­tic­u­larly lax in not cov­er­ing Wel­ling­ton on a Plate, in my case because I am drastic­ally short of funds and if I wrote about it I’d just get sad that I can­’t eat every single thing on offer. But luck­ily, we can out­source the work to a third-world coun­try instead. My favour­ite food blog­ger from Sydney – Helen at Grab Your Fork – has been in Wel­ling­ton as a guest of Wel­ling­ton Tour­ism, and she’s been doing some fant­ast­ic posts about what she’s been eat­ing, along with tak­ing some very tasty pho­tos like the one at the right of the bak­ing class at Florid­it­a’s. You should check her out, and also check out the fest­iv­al itself. If you’re short of a din­ing com­pan­ion, feel free to extend an invit­a­tion to me…
