So it's Monday and I don't want to think too hard

I spotted this food/photo meme using the wonderfulness that is Flickr and the cleverness that is Mosiac Maker over at Inherent Passion and thought it was about time I did a meme, so here it goes.

First the rules:

a) Type your answer to the questions into Flickr search
b) Using only the first page of results, pick an image
c) Copy and paste each of the URLs in the Mosaic Maker

And here's the questions:

1) What is your favourite restaurant?
Flickr couldn't find a photo of the wonderful A'Deco, Whangarei's finest dining establishment, so this photo of an Art Deco style building had to do.
2) What is your favourite type of cuisine?
Northern Indian food, love eating it, love making it.
3) What is your favourite comfort food?
Cheese! A nice wedge of cheddar, tangy feta in a Greek salad, a creamy slice of blue vein on a watercracker, lashings of cheese sauce all over steamed cauliflower. Oh yeah.
4) What is your favorite childhood food?
Fudge, particularly Russian Fudge, a delectable caramel flavoured variety, popular in all school fair cake and sweet stalls (usually stuffed into a paper cup accompanied by toffee brittle and coconut ice) - it dissolves in your mouth and makes your teeth shiver
5) What is your favourite dish to prepare for company?
Chicken, Ham and Leek pie, with steamed green beans and cheesy mash on the side. This pie takes hours to make, but is always very well received.
6) What is your favourite wine?
Kiwi Sauvignon Blanc, chilled. Church Road, or Oyster Bay. Don't come anywhere near me with that bloody chardonnay.
7) Who is your favourite chef?
Rick Stein for his enthusiastic delight for all things foody. This is a photo of his restaurant in Padstow, Cornwall.
8) What is your least favourite food?
Mushrooms make me quiver in revulsion, but silverbeet can send me running from the room, gagging.
9) What is the most adventurous food you’ve eaten?
A medium rare kangaroo fillet steak. Delicious. Boing boing!

I love mushrooms but Simon hates them - a texture thing do you think?

Can't wait 'til we come to visit. I will bring the SB and you make that pie! Deal! Also, kangaroo? Not sure I would go there. But you never know I guess...

ll - It's the texture and the taste! There's something vaguely dirtlike about the flavour.
