On the day after the 2nd zoo trip, we met up in Hoochie Mamma’s to sketch. Love those orange cups. One of our sketching friends was delayed, so we had a walk around Newtown for a while till she called. We then dashed back to Hoochie’s again and the 2nd time I had one of their tall round caramel cakes and it was very yummy, but I didn’t sketch it. Have to have another one then, don’t I?
Since my first visit to Hoochie Mamma I’ve been back there a few times. My friend from the country was here at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital (in the same street), first for tests, then for a major operation. I met them the day of the tests at Hoochie’s for lunch. By the time they went back to the country, my friend’s husband assured me that Hoochie’s had the best food around.
I haven’t had a chance to visit here in a while, but I love what you’re doing!!! The reflection in that coffee pot is great! Love the sketches from the zoo…nice that you had some cooperative animals!
I agree: the teapot is esp. fine.
You could probably parlay a good-quality copy of your sketch with the proprietor in exchange for multiple delicacies to draw/paint!
