    sushiboy,

    Well, I'm sure you'll find three great sushi joints, though I'm curious to see what representative cuisine you find locally for Antarctica and Australia (Outback doesn't count, right? For the Land Downunder, You might just want to make a picnic lunch of Vegemite sandwiches and Foster's).

    Some years ago, I was the proud owner of 80 cans of krill. Made into a salad or creamed and tucked into a crepe, it would qualify as an Antarctic dish more familiar to baleen whales than humans.

    Perhaps THIS site or THIS ONE can provide some guidance regarding the cuisine of Antarctica.

    Australia might be satisfied with dishes offered here with another take on the experience here … and I am NOT heading you to Outback!

    For a bit of cultural background, you may want to consult here.

    Well, there are any number of places serving Australian wines and New Zealand mussels. Most of the venison sold in local restaurants is also from New Zealand, and from time to time you see Australian yabbies and barramundi on menus at local seafood houses.

    I remember you saying something about this in another thread, but I can't remember what you are talking about. How about filling us in so we can make suggestions.

    You should post it all here so that everthing is in one place if you expect to get much help. It's much more convenient to have a thread in a single place so that everyone can follow the conversation. I for one, have no idea what the 24 hr. athon is, other than the one that happened back in the Chowhound days.
