The Blue Duck Cafe

"The Blue Duck Cafe" has recently opened in St Leonards, Sydney.
An illustrated work of mine was commissioned to adorn the walls of the cafe in large print form and has also been used in the beautifully crafted hard backed menu.
The cafe is located at 601 Pacific Highway, St Leonards NSW (2065) and I recommend a visit. 

They blend Asian ingredients into contemporary dishes and their Jack and Bean boutique coffee is designed and blended by the World Latte Art Champion and Australian Barista Judge Jack Hanna.Very cool..
If you're fortunate enough to pop in, say hello to Simon and Mary Lee for me!

You will find more information soon at www.blueduckcafe.com.au  which is currently having the finishing touches applied to it.

The original drawing of the Blue Duck Cafe (then titled "The Fat Duck Cafe") is owned by good friend and budding wine buff Ian Burrows.

Thanks Lynn and pleased to meet you (if that is the right word ha!).
Jules speaks highly of you often :)

Yeah pop in there if you get a chance.. it's more an illustrative piece than the paintings I am doing these days but so glad to be involved in the project and humbled by the use of the image in the cafe's branding/promotions.

Smiles from South Oz,
Leith
