It was excellent food in a nice place, and for the first time since moving to Sydney over a decade ago I felt I was eating good Middle Eastern food. I used to live in Brunswick, which was also known as Little Turkey.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/4529595468\/sizes\/l\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4439\" title=\"Mado_Cafe_20100417_2010-04-17 at 16-21-03\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Mado_Cafe_20100417_2010-04-17-at-16-21-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><!--more-->After looking at the transport options and being forewarned of track work after Strathfield, I decided to walk to Stanmore Station.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/4529414732\/sizes\/l\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4437\" title=\"Stanmore_20100417_2010-04-17 at 15-00-25\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Stanmore_20100417_2010-04-17-at-15-00-25.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Becuase of the track work and the fiendish traffic on western Sydney&#8217;s roads on a Saturday evening, we were quite late starting. It took me over 45 minutes to get from Strathfield to Auburn on the bus. Luckily Yacinta gave me a lift back to Strathfield on the way home. We started with a full plate of dips. And I was impressed. Not the best dips ever,\u00a0 but certainly good ones. Though I did think the beetroot dip was right up there with the best.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/4529596592\/sizes\/l\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4440\" title=\"Mado_Cafe_20100417_2010-04-17 at 17-02-15\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Mado_Cafe_20100417_2010-04-17-at-17-02-15.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/4529597210\/sizes\/l\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4441\" title=\"Mado_Cafe_20100417_2010-04-17 at 17-02-55\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Mado_Cafe_20100417_2010-04-17-at-17-02-55.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Then we had a bunch of main courses. We had one each, and an extra, though really we were getting into the realms of too much food. Still I manages a taste of everything. One day I will remember to take a photo of the menu or write down the dish names so I can tell you what they are. There were a few dishes the photos did not work out so they are not shown here. The first one is what I had.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/4529598576\/sizes\/l\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4442\" title=\"Mado_Cafe_20100417_2010-04-17 at 17-12-22\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Mado_Cafe_20100417_2010-04-17-at-17-12-22.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/4528965911\/sizes\/o\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4443\" title=\"Mado_Cafe_20100417_2010-04-17 at 17-12-29\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Mado_Cafe_20100417_2010-04-17-at-17-12-29.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/4528967019\/sizes\/o\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4444\" title=\"Mado_Cafe_20100417_2010-04-17 at 17-13-25\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Mado_Cafe_20100417_2010-04-17-at-17-13-25.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">For desert we had various things. I did not realise that the traditional Turkish ice-cream was not in the ones listed, so I had a more normal ice-cream. But Yacinta ordered the correct one so we all had a taste of that.
