African taste sensation & Blasko's brilliance


My good friend Dinali is behind this blog title hehehe we went out Friday night to celebrate both of our birthdays (on different days this month). Our present was tickets to see Sarah Blasko at the Enmore Theatre (above). Before the show we had dinner at a rather unusual African eatery about a block down the road. We laughed and giggled our way through the amusingly written menu (delicious exclamation mark...different exclamation mark...) while making references to lines from The IT Crowd hahaha:

Moss
: Subject: Fire. Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to inform you of a fire that has broken out on the premises of 123 Cavendon Road... no, that's too formal. [deletes text, starts again]
Moss: Fire - exclamation mark - fire - exclamation mark - help me - exclamation mark. 123 Cavendon Road. Looking forward to hearing from you. Yours truly, Maurice Moss. [sigh of relief]

Anyways the food was sensational and cheap too! As for the show, Sarah Blasko has outdone herself yet again (this is my 3rd time seeing her perform live). She performed ALL the songs from her new record PLUS my favourite oldies PLUS her own take on a couple of songs from movie soundtracks (below). I love her profoundly poetic lyrics, her unique voice and the multi-instrumentalists ensemble of a band. This is truly great music to me!
