Travel often brings the unexpected. But I was unprepared to find some of the best food I've ever eaten in Australia.
On a recent trip, we stopped at a café for lunch. An Australian woman we had seen earlier at a sheep dairy ran over and recommended the marron salad. "What is marron?" I asked.
"Well," she said, "you know what yabbies are."
Toto, we're not in Kansas any more. We are in Oz — which is what the locals call Australia.
