Stunt Dog
Calling all dog agents out there. I wanted to give you a sneak peak of the hottest dog this side of Central Park. His full name is Dasha Stunt Dog but you can call him Dasha for short. Here are a few pic's of the little fella in action and official stunt dog certification.

Ash versus the Waldorf
New York came to a standstill today for the most anticipated prize fight of the year. Me versus the mighty Waldorf. This was not an amateur league Pizza Hut style all you eat caper. This was serious. The showtime was set to start at 12pm and considering I had not had breakfast I was straight into it. Anyway here is a blow by blow account of this epic struggle of eyes versus stomach
Round One - 12.00pm
I was hungry, I was focused and I was taking no prisoners. I was straight out the gate, took the gloves off and went straight for the seafood. I'd spent the weekend preparing by smashing Oysters at Gramancy Tavern on Thursday night and the German Bier Garden in Meat Packers on Saturday so was ready for whatever the Waldorf could throw at me. I also took a few jabs at Lobster tail, smoked salmon and prawns
Round Two - 12.15pm
Round one was pretty even so I thought I better go back for more. This time though I was into it so quickly I smashed the caviar before remembering to take a photo. This was a transition plate over to the world of meat.
Round Three - 12.25pm
After smashing the first two round I was now back into hardcore coronary territory. The Beef Wellington was nothing short of sensational. Considering the caviar was a zillion dollars a gram I also took another swing at that.
Round Four - 12.40pm
I was starting to hurt but this is the type of fight I was not going to throw the towel in for. I still had room but did not have the courage to waste space with tier 2 food so I took a few big hits at some of the classics from the previous rounds.
Round Five - 1.00pm
I was hurting but this is the round where it was time to step up and show true character. I may have had fish and meat coming out of me but there was nothing stopping me from the monster which was the desert bar. I wont even bother trying to describe it suffice to say it was truly not a fair round. The cheese cake was delicious.
Round Six - 1.30pm
That's it. I cannot take it any more. I can convincingly say I smashed it in the first couple but the Waldorf got the better of me. Top shelf venue and love their Sunday Brunch. P.S Mum it's your shout in July! Lucky the Aussie dollar is cranking.
