Movida doing asparagus, I just about cried. Every single sauce and flavouring at Movida makes your tongue tingle with excitement just like you've eaten sherbet. I keep going back as it remains to be my favourite in Melbourne. I try others but nothing really compares. They are warm and gracious when you ask what can be made vegan on the menu. They give 'magic genie' service, arriving psychically when needed, plates magically disappear, more wine materialises out of thin air al lthe while you being completely engrossed in your dining partners. Go go go.

ReplyDeleteP.S. SO sorry for my lameness in recipe-reviewing! I do intend to get back into it soon, but got swept away by essay marking!
that asparagus looks amazing - wish I could get myself organised to get there but eating out is not so common these with wee imp in tow.
