Dining Out: Only on a Sunday - Chestnuts


Today I had the great pleasure of attending the May 'Only on a Sunday' monthly lunch at Old Parliament House here in Canberra. The day could not have been more perfect for it: the sun was shining but the air remained cool, and the delicious smells of roasting chestnuts and goat filled the sublimely enclosed space of the private courtyard.




Today's outfit:
charcoal pinstriped wool Blazer - St. James, thrifted
cream wool Scarf with Russian design - thrifted from Material Pleasures
grey and black 3/4 sleeve Shirt - Industrie
black leather Belt - JAG
faded black zipper Jeans - ASOS
black leather Chelsea Boots - Country Road


The lunch today was absolutely amazing and if you are a Canberra native or even if you're likely to visit the city in the future, I strongly suggest checking out the Kitchen Cabinet website and trying to make it along to one of these events. The next one looks AMAZING!


Today's menu:
Chestnut Soup
Goat stew, spit-roast goat, potato salad, Greek salad and garden salad
Chestnut pannacotta with candied chestnuts
