Pluto Pup or Dagwood Dog? 🌭
Same snack, different names — and honestly, it’s a bit of an Aussie identity crisis 😅

Growing up in NSW, it was always a Pluto Pup for us. But ask someone from Victoria or SA, and they’ll likely call it a Dagwood Dog — both names for that golden, deep-fried hot dog on a stick we all love at the show.

📜 The name Dagwood Dog comes from Dagwood Bumstead, a comic strip character from the 1930s known for his love of over-the-top sandwiches.
🐶 Pluto Pup likely caught on in NSW and QLD thanks to its fun, cartoon-style branding — maybe even inspired by Disney’s Pluto (though not officially confirmed).

Whatever the history, one thing’s for sure — it’s not a Darwin Show without one 🔥
Happy show weekend

Ever driven past that little drive-thru across from Bunnings Palmerston and thought, what do they even sell?
Let us put you on to Crave — a local gem serving up more than just coffee.
Think soft serve superfoods like Acai, Mango, Coconut, Chameleon and Blue Majik – all dairy free, gluten free and vegan.
They’ve also got smoothies, milkshakes, snacks on the go, and the only Nitro Cold Brew in Darwin.
Small spot. Big flavour. Worth the stop.

✨ A little life update from our family to yours… ✨

We’re beyond excited to share that Abi is expecting baby number two! 🫶

Building Dishin Up Darwin has given us something truly special — a business that lets Abi thrive in her career while embracing motherhood at the same time. It’s not always easy, but being able to bring Jaya along on shoots (and having all our amazing clients welcome him with open arms) means the world to us.

Your support reminds us why we do what we do — to show up, work hard, and celebrate the people and places that make our community shine. We’re so grateful to run this as not just a mother-and-daughter duo, but a whole family team.

And don’t worry — this next chapter won’t change the level of care, creativity and commitment you’ve come to know from us. We’ll continue to deliver the same expert service you trust us with, now with even more love to share.

Thank you for being part of our journey — we can’t wait to share this next chapter with you all. 💛
