Dear Lakeside Hashers For this run we welcome back Chicken Dicken and applaud his choice of venue - the Water Rat - their Mt Zero organic farro risotto (roast pumpkin, Tuscan Kale, parmesan and almonds) is to die for! We also return to the city, to a Sth Melbourne at a time of Grand Prix preparations and an Albert Park all but fenced off. The hare may scramble us around their barricades and stretch our legs down the main straight - vroom, vroom, here we come! (big race is Sunday 15th of March).
