Happy Australia Day!
(OR – for us in North America who aren’t enjoying Aussie summer weather: Happy January 26th… Which doesn’t sound nearly as fun shouted into bracing winds and sub-freezing temperatures…)
Despite our location and cold temps, we STILL wanted to celebrate Australia day with a fantastic Aussie-focused meal with true blue Australian juice. Thanks to all who were able to join us at Café Zinho for this tasty menu.
