The Over Easys done just Right
I spent a wonderful Thursday evening not long back at Renan Goksin's Eastern Star- Claypots seafood restaurant situated right on the corner at the front of South Melbourne market.

Look for this Entrance sign to the Market
This is a wonderful place for fine weather feasting as it is surrounded by outside dining areas on 2 sides and a courtyard style area in the entrance to the market. The long bar on the other side of the restaurant is were I was sitting to enjoy the yet to be uncovered talent of The Over Easys.

The music is quite delightful window back in time when life ran at a slower pace. The music of one's grandparents stack of 78rpm records brought to life by these 3 most entertaining chappies.

For the life of me I can't remember the name of all the musos, (I will hunt their names down) but I do the know the pianist. One Rob Furst, media mogul of the music industry with his stable of music and other publications and past local R&R demigod in the bands la Femme and Shy Boys, tinkling the ivories with a passion.
The banjo/mandolin player player leads the band with some awesome old style croonings and the drummer fills the air and keeps the beat like a metronome.
They seem to have a lot of fun and their music takes your mind back to a pleasanter time in one's life for those of a certain age. I recommend that you pop in one Thursday evening and drift into past.

Renan supports live music in both his restaurants, Claypots in Barkly Street, St Kilda being the other renowned seafood specialists 7 days a week.

That night I sat down to a mouth watering table of John Dory, Leatherjacket, shellfish, chopped fried liver and what for me was like finding an old friend, some of Ruba's beautifully well cooked green beans in a traditional tomato sauce which I having been searching for.
Thanks for a great night out Eastern Star!
