Now about that Olive Oil place...

Sydney's Good Living supplement in SMH noted the opening of a new Italian & Australian olive oil specialty shop - at Strand Arcade, so perfect for anyone here who is staying in a Sydney hotel.

L'Oiloteca
Lvl2, Strand Arcade, Sydney
(i.e. a couple of blocks north of QVB/Town Hall or south of Martin Place/Wynyard)
Who: Nino Zoccali (ex- Otto exec chef)
What: Hand-poured oil - Italian & Australian specialty oils, in recyclable, 1L amber bottles.

This is in addition to a cafe (by day) / wine bar (after work) , plus a restaurant. (Cafe & Restaurant Pendolino).

This weekend's Melbourne trip (to many wineries in three regions in Victoria) we did notice a few olive plantations amongst the grape vines.
