I just tried an espresso martini chocolate from Koko Black. It’s a chocolate with vodka, ground coffee and espresso liqueur inside. It’s orgasmic. 🙂

Hobart :
for me MONA is a must see although some people are put off by various art pieces.(even to the point of lawsuits). Also the dedicated ferry to and from MONA is more fun and I think you might need to book ahead for some exhibitions
Port Arthur is great. Plan an entire day there, have picnic and take the boat to the Isle of the Dead for an interesting guided tour of the penal colony cemetery.
Some of my favourite food and drink in Hobart:
Bar Wa Izakaya , a super fun Japanese restaurant
Urban Greek, delicious food and great service
Landscape grill for excellent steak
The Den Salamanca, cozy whiskey/cocktail bar to chill out after you hit the market. The food is good as well.
Moto Vecchia cafe, for nice coffee and brekkie. They are super friendly there. It’s just across the river.
Further afield: King Solomons cave in Liena is really cool guided tour and worth the drive. Stop in Mumma Buzz’s Cafe in Deloraine for excellent egg and bacon roll
Cataract Gorge in Launceston is a beautiful bike or walk track
If we take the Spirit, we normally book the overnight trip.

Speaking of movies, I took receipt of this handsome edition of “A Masterpiece in Disarray” an oral history of David Lynch’s Dune movie. I think I’m one of a half dozen people that actually loves this movie.

One of my resolutions this year is to not rewatch any movie I have already seen. I have slipped once or twice, but for the most part it’s been super enjoyable.

A quick Spoiler Free PHM mention :
I watched the Project Hail Mary at the IMAX. The choice of screen size was worth the extra money. There were a few breathtaking shots that caused slight vertigo which is part of the fun.
I did read the book when it first came out, however, forgotten most plot details which is great. Going into a movie and constantly comparing it to the author’s original storyline can be unfair to the merits of the movie.
I rate the film amongst one of the best I have seen this year. The humour combined with the action and suspense were well balanced, as was the flashback structure of the story. Unfortunately , I don’t like Ryan Gosling though, but that’s just personal preference. He did a fine job.
4.5/5
