The life given us by nature is short. But the memory of a life spent well is eternal - for Michael RIP Mr Bangalow

Local TV presenter and identity Scott McGregor and Leah Roland from Bangalow Cooking School were vocal adovcates for a range of Bangalow foods this morning. Including Pasteries from Ate and Utopia Cafes, Bangalow Pork and the Sample Food Festival to be held in Bangalow on September 10th.

It was breakfast with the stars in Bangalow this morning. After Bangalow was named the Happiest Town in Australia Channel 7's Sunrise team came to town for a live broadcast. In true Byron Bay food style even the sausage sizzle featured pork steaks and Zenfelds provided great coffee to anyone needing a caffeine boost.

It's the size of a broom cupboard, not a sea view or lighthouse in sight. Although Beloporto might be a "hole in the wall", tucked away in Feros Arcade it has a cult following it's easy to see why. The Portuguese inspired burger joint sports a Portuguese flag and serves unpretentious meals that represent great value. Don't expect silver service but for something quick and economic it's hard to beat.

At around $8 a burger or $11 with chips and a drink most everyone leaves with a full belly and a smile in their face.

Bangalow locals and visitors have a new haunt, the Bang Burger Bar. With fresh handmade burgers and simple strong stylings the Bang Burger Bar is already attracting a cadre of believers, burger believers.
