When you in the town hall area around 6 ish and feel a bit peckish for dinner. Do not hesitate to walk to Chefs Gallery on Bathurst St just down from the KFC. Generally if you have the foresight you can book ahead online but alas you can always leave you name with the hostess on the door and wait probably around 5-10 min sometimes its longer and sometimes your're in luck! As soon as we arrived there were at least 12 people waiting outside so we asked for a table for 2 and the hostess asked if we didnt mind bench seats....um of course not! Zing! Instant table and we faced the kitchen so we could see the guy making fresh noodles! Awesome We ordered the Roti Peking Duck, BBQ Fried Noodles and chilli chicken (which we secretly thing should be called KUNG POW Chicken - Its not hot or spicy its just an awesome name!) Everything as usual was mouth-watering! Teamed up with some iced lemon tea! Delish! Waiters are friendly and efficient, Food is quite fast too! Address details can be found here: weebly

Dinner catch up with my nephew who is taller than me...go figure!
As always when i feel like vegetables and stir-fry's we always seem to end up here. The food is always tasty and quick, waiters friendly and efficient! And great prices too. We started with some Satay Chicken Skewers (hmmm peanut sauce :D) and Curry Puffs. Then for mains we decided to share between 3 adults and 1 child. So got the Chicken green curry, Beef Pad Thai and Vegetables & Tofu Cashew nut stir fry. As usual they were all delightful! A successful catchup with family and food always goes hand in hand.

We got there around 6pm and it was not busy yet, However, when we left at 8pm there was a line for the entrance as they were at capacity. So plan ahead people! Overall a great experience for the family, with friends or just with your partner :) A bit of a delayed post as i went on the 2nd of December for Birthday Dinner for 6 people. We started off with the dips of Capsicum humus with pastirma, Pistachio chili smoked babaganush and the Walnut, capsicum muhammara all came with freshly baked bread as per pictures. All the dips were delectable with the soft fresh bread. For mains we got share plates which consisted of: Zucchini, feta and walnut gozleme, Bosphorus fried mussels with white tamara, White hot chicken wings with mint yoghurt and Sautéed scotch fillet, capsicum, tomato, chilli, flat pide. Everything was superb! Quite filling for 6 people. The restaurant also had their own home made chilli pickles which was hot but not boiling to the point you needed milk ;P. Overall a great experience as it was my first time visiting, yet will not be my last :). Address can be found here: weebly Until the next adventure. Ciao!
This is one of those places that you've been meaning to visit but just haven't got the time or you keep forgetting about it.
So since it was our anniversary dinner I figured why not spoil ourselves with some fine french cuisine. It only dawned upon me on the day of our reservation whilst i was trying to find it on google maps, that I have walked past this place so many times and didn't realise it was under my nose the whole time! Ananas is located above Lowenbrau keller and used to be "Uber bar", Now its more a classy establishment :P with bar and restaurant. Beautiful rustic feel inside and loving the pineapple lamps they have throughout the restaurant! For entree, we had the prawn cocktail, then for mains we both had the Savanah grass fed 300g Sirloin, The Mr had his with Bearnaise sauce and I had mine with the cafe de Paris butter sauce both came with pommes frites. For drinks The Mr had a dirty martini with gin which he proclaimed was the best he ever had! I had the Absolutely Ananas (above picture). For dessert, I had the Ananas 4 ways with coconut mousse and he had the Snickers revolution, Both insanely heavenly! Waiters were very hospitable and french :). Overall we both agreed it was the best anniversary dinner thus far! Address details can be found here: weebly So we ended up going Friday night instead. Wait time of about 10 minutes. We got as follows: Pan fried pork dumplings Shredded beef with steam plain bun Seasonal vegetables stir fry with oyster sauce I have to say this was the first time we ever saw these cute little buns! They were fluffy and still steaming from the oven! Beef was saucy and went perfectly well with the "fluffy puffs" (Yes I just gave them a nickname!) so all in all a great dish! I sometimes feel bad taking photos of food in restaurants especially when the staff stare at you! Alas i still managed to get a few below average shots. Have you visited this place before? Tell me what you think :) Til next time Cheerio! |
