Of course Heart2Heart loves wine country because what goes better with wine than cheese!!! YUMMY! 🙂
Beside Brokenback Bar was a dairy shop which we went to while waiting for the food to arrive.
Wow! Look at the gigantic bread from Bacco’s leaves in different flavors
Other gourmet products to go with the bread and other dairy products
Very interesting – FRUIT PASTE which you can add to your cheese and food
Mom of course bought!! And she got mad at me for taking her photo carrying the box 🙂
After the good lunch we had at Brokenback Bar– we continued to eat! and we sat outside in one of the picnic tables and had our cheese and port wine…YUMMY!!!
And I saw this CHEESE SHOP in one of the areas there while driving!!! I LOVE IT!!!!! CHEESE HEAVEN! 🙂 It is called the SMELLY CHEESE SHOP! They were closed already but they opened the shop for us so we got to take a quick peek! Sorry photos are not clear- was hiding the camera 🙂 I always wanted to open a cheese shop here!! I hope someone does!!

We arrived around 1 pm and we were so hungry! So after checking in, we went right away to the resort’s restaurant and we ordered lunch. Oh my gosh! Apparently when people eat in this area, they eat very slow and really take their time!! So you can imagine how hungry we were 🙂 The food started to come at around 2 pm and we finished almost 4 pm

We rented a van to fit the whole family and James drove us to Hunter Valley! We timed it to celebrate the birthday of Dad who loves wine
We made sure of course we had a GPS to guide us in getting there. It was a two hour drive to get to the resort
We chose Tuscany Estate and Resort as recommended by Tita Tess…It was beautiful
There are two kinds of rooms… those facing the vineyard
And those facing the olive grove..we stayed here
Each room had a door opening to the grove..it was so nice and peaceful. A nice way to relax and get away from the city

The Japanese food loving family had another Japanese meal….Quito chose Inagiku to celebrate his special day….My brother really knows how to choose!
When we had our dinner here, we realized that we always take for granted what we have in our country….we can get very good Japanese food right here. The quality and presentation is excellent!
One of the reasons it is authentic Japanese is because they have a resident Japanese manager, Mr. Yoshio Ishikawa, who oversees the place
Wow! Look at how nice these miniature crabs look!
Mr. Ishikawa gave this to us – we thought it was for decoration in the table but he told us to eat it- it tasted good actually….sort of like popcorn
I am not a sashimi person but everyone else ordered these assorted sashimi and Aburi sashimi
This was my order, tempura maki! WOW! I have never seen tempura maki served this way! This is the ULTIMATE TEMPURA MAKI! 🙂 It has something even under it like an egg like thing with a sweet sauce- YUMMY!!
Close up!! Look at the different colors of fish roe on top!
Foie Gras Teppanyaki – this is half an order since I split mine with my son, Javier. I was eating a lot of this when he was in my stomach so it might explain why he loves it too 🙂
Mr. Ishikawa serving the grilled fish! He deboned it and served it
