July 16, 2011: Gasometer V

11/11/2013: We're piteous to study the closure of our dear Gasometer.

We'd had a tedious showtime to the day, amongst breakfast coming roughly midday. This left us a trivial confused nigh the remainder of the twenty-four hr menstruation - could nosotros represent a luncheon inward earlier dinner? Should nosotros skip a meal? Just brand create amongst a unmarried lunch-dinner combo meal? It was confusing. In the halt nosotros decided to merely wander into the Gasometer in addition to run across what happened.

Of course, what happened was Cindy at nowadays ordered the Southern-fried 'chicken' burger again. She is obsessed. I decided to brave something new, settling on the vegan corn domestic dog (as the Gasometer card states, "Food on a stick = win!").

vegan dagwood dog. I retrieve this is how corn dogs are meant to live on though, in addition to it worked brilliantly amongst the awesome combo of Lycopersicon esculentum sauce in addition to brilliant xanthous mustard. The domestic dog itself was basically indistinguishable from a meaty hot-dog frankfurt - you lot tin plow over the axe accept that every bit a skilful or bad affair depending on your tastes.

In an crusade to pretend I wasn't merely poisoning myself amongst fried obese food, I ordered a carrot in addition to beetroot salad on the side. There wasn't a lot to this - slices of carrot in addition to beetroot inward a really lite dressing.


We ate this at 4:30 inward the afternoon, making it 1 of the to a greater extent than ridiculous afternoon teas I've been a purpose of. Needless to say, in that place was no room for dinner inward the end. The Gasometer remains the pre-eminent source of vegan junk nutrient inward Melbourne - merely don't larn in that place in addition to await to consume healthily.
