| Tim Flannery. |
here's a hilarious,
if slightly unsettling, scene in Two Men In China where Tim Flannery and John
Doyle (aka Roy Slaven) find themselves in a penis restaurant in Beijing which
serves up the mighty members of various animals and fish – sheep, shark,
dolphin, dog and the like. It's an altogether horrific buffet of the unthinkable.
With dipping sauce. Flannery says he got through it by choosing to view the
experience as a first-year biology experiment. And, no, he didn't get stuck in.
Not even a tasting plate.
The internationally renowned climate scientist,
paleontologist and author of around 30 books and I are in the comparatively
less challenging culinary environment of Dr Jekyll's cafe in Grey Street St
Kilda, a convivial and evidently popular eatery with a courtyard out the back.
Read Graham Reilly’s story in Spectrum in today’s Age -
“Tim Flannery laments 10 lost years of political leadership.”
