Tiamo

Lunch with visiting Japanese exchange student and 3 other teenagers and a working mum. An opportunity to try pasta and seafood. Starting from the back with the dessert selection.

Scrumptious baked risotto was delicious with tiny baby octopus at $32. Rice infused with all the seafood broth.

The lasagne was not quite like how mum made it but with lots of fine mince meat and mushrooms at $25.

The linguini Tiamo reminded us of a stir fried dish with chopped bacon and prawns at 425.

The spag marinara with lots of mussels at $26.

A massive bowl of mussels with hot spicy tomato sauce at $34. 

We also had the massive serves of bruschetta for $12 to go with the lovely large chilli mussels. Fortunately we were in training for the Perth City to Surf on the 28 of Aug so all the carbs from the pasta was easily burnt after our 23 km morning run before lunch. Running for 3.5 hours at about 600 calories per hour. At a guesstimate about 2000 calories were burnt. That should equate to a few hefty servings of pasta. 

Pump House Kununurra

Working dinner with colleagues. We had the whole barramundi and were not disappointed.

 $32 per person for 2 so total $64 with a salad and crusty baked potatoes. Dessert was deconstructed rhubarb crumble for $15 was delicious. There were relics of pumps and shoals of catfish by the river. The air is thick with the scent of fruit bats under the moon light. A definite must visit for the Kununurra experience. Get a seat indoors if u are allergic to mosquitoes but miss out on the warm balmy evening subtropical ambiance. Full bar available and they are ok to split the bill.

Our stuffed Barramundi. Head only left.

Catfish or cobbler outside the pump house restaurant.

The rhubarb and berry crumble. Deconstructed and delicious.

Good food with friends.

Another early start for the day prior to dinner - with a short 14 Km run in the town of Kununurra. Started getting hot by about 7am. But managed to complete the run after 2 hours.
