Reporter Charlene Gatt photographs and interviews Bennie and his dad at Ebi Fine Food for a forthcoming story in the Footscray Star.
Not just a fun thing to do after school but also a breakthrough – Bennie positively inhales Ebi’s super miso soup, packed with both enoki mushrooms and tofu!
Bennie, you’re a legend!

Good on you, Kenny and Bennie. Do post a link when the story’s up.

Sure will, Caron. The paper doesn’t have it’s own site but the Star group does. As well, we’ll put up a pdf file here at CTS.
I hope she doesn’t quote me too accurately! 😦

Nice one 🙂 I’ll keep an eye out for the article.
Digressing… Is that a new larder-type thing on the left of the picture… Are Ebi now selling raw materials & supplies like the Japanese place (whose name escapes me) in Seddon? Or have I just overlooked it for the past couple of years?!

Hi Juz! Unfortunately, we never get a Star paper delivered. Yes, Ebi’s doing small range of groceries a la Ajitoya. Love how the pic of the pic taker turned out, me!

It’s a beaut shot! Love the angle and the composition. We get the Star infrequently and erratically but I often read it online. I did notice though when we visited Seddon last Sunday around lunchtime, a lot of businesses in Victoria St had The Star on their front doorstep. So, while I caution against nicking someone else’s paper… Ahem!
That’s good to know about the Ebi larder… Gives me another reason to go and get some calamari again soon.

Yeh, thanks Juz – found it this afternoon, posted links on both my own and the CTS FB pages. Pity there’s no link! It’s all good though – Charlene did a nice job.
