22 jun 2014 - swan valley

21 jun - met up with S and went to Fremantle with her and her colleagues :)

22 jun - went to Swan Valley with some friends :)
we ate at a fancy French restaurant as chosen by K.

the interior

 the entree page
 a Pinelli "sparkling juliet" ($9) - i thought it was a champagne but friends said it tasted like beer. lol
the Pinelli sweet rose (in the background $8) is very easy to drink though
we got a bit drunk

 duck confit ($40) - duck leg with sweet potato puree
tender and yum
 lamb ($40) with potato
a bit dry and a bit too lamb-y
 seafood board ($45) - squid, scallop, prawn
the 4 of us shared all this - felt bad but we're international students, we can do whatever :P

next we went to the Margaret River Chocolate Factory.
 free chocolate samples (dark, milk and white, scooped from huge bowls) and a chocolate Australia

 ice-cream corner

 more strange chocolate souvenirs

 the strangest one of all - Mr Teddy was at least 30 cm tall

 we traipsed over grape farms

 found some fuzzy baby cows and fed this white one grass

then we went to Spud Shed to buy 1 kg of prawns ($18) to have a sumptuous dinner.
