[@davidlang1125]

I’m amazed how Mark never runs out of superlatives! And also amazed at his legendary appetite! I grew up in Australia in the nineteen fifties and sixties when most Australians had an aversion to seafood and were accustomed to a sad and indifferently prepared piece of fish on Friday nights. My family were immigrants from China and we were omnivores so we relished the rich bounty of seafood such as we see here in this video. What a feast we had! Thanks Mark for a journey down memory lane. From California.

The food looks fantastic. I love seafood, but I have never seen oysters that big before. I would have been full after the ostrich egg on the roll and the oysters. This is the first time I have seen the Grill Sisters and I am so impressed. Their cooking and timing was fantastic and they finished cooking it all before it started to rain.

We love our surf n turf here in Australia, especially in Melbourne where it is enjoyed so many ways. Thank you for visiting here Mark we appreciate that you made the choice to share your experience with the world my friend ☺️

[@dingo7055]

You will probably agree with me, but there's nothing more Australian and "Common man" than eating an AU$50.00 OSTRICH egg from a bird native to AFRICA on my giant 700$ garden fireplace with a huge and expensive barbecue grill on top - before our "Surf and Turf" meal of EASILY AU$1000.00 of meat, prepared badly, overcooked, and consumed like junk food. :) It makes me proud to be an Australian. :) Peace! *This is all my personal opinion.

I enjoy these series. I did not know much about Australian food before- it seems a real mix between different counties but same time very local style.

[@maria2162]

We are melting pot of different nationalities, and a good amount of these dishes have a Greek twist to them as the ladies are both Greek

[@dingo7055]

Australian food is definitely a mix between different countries, but this kind of meal is really only eaten by the rich. "Normal" people do not eat Ostrich eggs (which come from animals native to Africa and over here farmed ones cost AU$ 50.00 each), or Oysters that big, or easily 300$ worth of Octopus in a single meal.

As an American who fishes for trout from many a lake ,river and stream. I could not help but shift my eye's from side to side when she said Rainbows are an Aussie fish.

[@cooldebt]

We farm them here in a number of places so they are ‘homegrown’/ Australian in that sense. My family always liked to go to the Eucumbene Trout Farm on the way back from the Snowy Mountains and pick up some delicious smoked trout to take back to Sydney. (It’s a 4 hour drive from the farm to so you couldn’t really buy fresh ones!) Not sure how old the farm was back in the 80s but it is still there.
