Another 660m swim on Thursday night, and the lights around Oriental Bay were very pretty.
A tour through 20 burgers as part of the Wellington on a Plate food festival (14-30 August 2015). I am also going to swim 10km over the 17 days to try and offset the burgers and create the necessary appetite to power through!

Day 7 - friendly crustaceans
On Thursday night I tried The Larder's bug burger - not an actual bug, but a Morton Bay Bug aka a little lobster. The lobster was lightly battered and came in a house made bun (or so it seemed), with chilli, cucumber, ice burg lettuce and capers. There was some kind of mayonnaise and the fries came with a rich aioli. The flavour was delicate and luxurious, and The Larder did well not to over power the flavour of the seafood. The chilli was spot on and the size was just right for me. I award the Bug Burger 8/10.
