Launie- A good weekend escape!!

If i were to know that launceston is such a nice place, i will have visited it many times in my last 2 years here. I know many people will feel shocked knowing that this is my 1st visit as launie is just 2 hours drive from hobart. hehe. but believe me that i will start visitng launie very often after this.

However, i find launie is abit too quiet to stay( onli a few shopping places..hehe) even though the scenery is really breathtaking and the food there is much cheaper and nicer than hobart.But it will be a good weekend escape with friends after ur long-tiring-torturing exam or working. No offence to those that have been staying in launie for ages ya..

So here is wat we did on these short but packed two days' trip (basically this is all-about-FOOD trip..hehe)


Saturday:

Most of my friends will know that i am a pork ribs lover and so when Ryan brought us to eat in Smokey Joe which has the best BBQ Pork Ribs in launceston, without hesitation, i agreed and wanted to jump up high!! And this restaurant is really deserved to be called the Best as i m really; totally; fully satisfied by its and enjoyed my every single bite of the pork ribs. Oh..i am still craving for it now.. And did i mention that they also serve the hottest chilli in world, called HABANERO and it is really super spicy but its nice aroma will just make u to go for a second try despite it burns ur tongue!!
And not forgetting the must-order-dessert Cobbler which tastes like sticky date pudding. The mixed warm and cold feeling in ur mouth will make u cant resist it even though it is so fattening.hehe.

As most of the food photos are still with krystal, so below are just few shots.

The chillis don't look as hot as it looks..













The cobbler:













p.s. i dont have any pork rib shots le..

Sunday:
Morning: Brekkie in a very famous local cafe





























Cas's mouth watering almond croissant(one of the top selling in the bakery) and Ryan's scramble eggs






























Me and krystal with the cranberry croissant and sour dough with kidney beans and baked beans mix.















Chun yen's chocolate croissant (layers of chocolates inside which melt on ur mouth immediately) and King's strawberry pancake.. Awesome!!


































Afternoon:

Tamar Valley (Swiss Village)





































































Wineyard:

We had wine testing in two wineyards, me and krystal prefer the sweet white wine while the others opt for red wines eg. the famous pinot noir.

Highlight:
This wine is named by the owner of his favourite pig and dog, so creative and cute!!

Pig+Pooch = Pig & d' pooch!!














































Batman's Bridge and Low head (lighthouse)
ps. dont ask my why is the bridge called batman.

Jump up high!!

Batman's Bridge!!
































Evening:
Dinner in Burger Got Soul (the owners in launie are quite creative le..hehe) The burgers are really huge and we all cant finish it. i ordered a Satay Sensation with thickening and yummy satay sauce. Yumm!! The Hot Mamma ordered by Ryan and jason is not bad though and i quite like it. Krystal ordered a brie cheese chicken which is quite filling.

Generally i enjoyed the whole trip to the max!! Thanks to the lovely hosts, skilful photographer, good companions, excellent food, good weather, scenic places, Cas's Wii Fit games, and not forgetting the two cute dogs in Cas's house called Chablis and Shaby!!

Chablis!!
