Kangaroo Pizza
While I was in Sydney, Australia I met up with a friend, her husband, and another one of their buds for a fun night in the city. They told me that since I was in Australia they would take me to a place that served things I probably would only find in Oz. I was a little weary, as I was still a pretty young "Daring Foodie" but I was open to trying something different.
We took a taxi to an area known as The Rocks and stopped at the Australian Heritage Hotel. The restaurant prides themselves in serving Australian food with a twist, as well as local beers and wine. I looked down at the menu and saw a few of my choices.....
I'll have Little Joey please, I mean the Pepper Kangaroo Pizza.
Before my dinner arrived I had one local beer and wine in hopes to numb a bit of that fear of eating a cute little animal. When my food arrived it had huge pieces of Kangaroo all over the pizza. I shuddered for a second, as I was expecting smaller pieces of meat to cover the pizza.
It tasted a little gamey and too chewy for me. It wasn't a good sign when I started picking off the Kangaroo meat from my pizza and handing it over to my friends.
I'm convinced that the Kangaroo meat gave us a different type of energy though, we ended up hopping all over Sydney; from bar hopping at Circular Quay and to a party in an abandoned church. Hoppity Hop Little Joey!

P.S. I normally use only my photos on this site, but the photo of my Kangaroo Pizza was so horribly taken as it was pitch black outside. The photo was so bad it would deter anyone from ever trying the pizza.
