The place to be on Friday Night!

Mollymook Golf Club

Our recent trip away for the weekend landed us within this destination. The small town of Mollymook presents waterfront views, peacefulness and a relaxing environment for individuals to catch up and have a fantastic night.

I enjoyed the friendly staff and quality bistro food, delving into my fair portion of seafood options. Maybe the close proximity to the water added flavour to the fish and chip meals.  

Utilising the pokies and Tab facilities; whilst also enjoying great company, made my night a fantastic experience.

Lunch Break For A Fresh Food Person

Sourdough Espresso

 St Ives Shopping Centre

A rainy Sunday and an insatiable hunger meant a big feed was needed and Sourdough Espresso delivered. Offering gourmet burgers with a drink and chips for only $12, all of the other characteristics are sort of irrelevant to me but I’m going to talk about them anyway.

Staff were pretty nice but not overbearing or over the top in how they talked. Wait time was about 10 minutes which is quite high for a takeaway joint but the burgers are made to order and a lot of components go into each individual burger. Other options available include salads, gourmet sandwiches, desserts and quiches so there are plenty of options for each customer.

Decor was quite nice as well for a restaurant that offers takeaway. Other food displayed looked delicious and the deals promoted on the TV screens at the back added to the place visually.

I ordered the Aussie Burger deal which included a wagyu beef patty, tomato, lettuce, cheese, beetroot egg with tomato relish and aioli on a brioche bun. It was completely what I wanted and all the flavours complemented each other well. Chips as well were hot and salted perfectly and were a great partner to the burger

Overall Rating:

5/5 Stars

Recommendation:
If you’re looking for a good burger deal in the north Shore area then Sourdough espresso perfect.

Thai Food Love

Phuket, Thailand

A Thailand getaway meant that lots of authentic Thai food was to be consumed. Being in one of the most popular tourist destinations in Thailand, I was certainly not disappointed. With lots of authentic street food readily available and a cafe/restaurant one after the other amongst the main road it was a hard decision to make when it came to a dining choice!

After trying a few (very cheap! but) average places, we stumbled upon Restaurant Veranda.

With a Russian influence, the place provided an up-scale atmosphere with not only authentic Thai food, but also some western cuisine.

We decided to start of with Prawn fried rice in a pineapple to share as an entree, which seemed like the best seller through Phuket, and it definitely did not disappoint! The flavour balanced beautifully, with just the right amount of sauce and spices! The prawns were soft and tender and juicy!
Definitely a 10/10!

For mains I chose a chicken Pad Thai, because who wouldn't! It was served on a bamboo leaf which added to the authenticity of the dish and smelt amazing! The dish itself was full of flavour but a little too much sauce for my liking and the chicken was a little dry, but thats just being picky! It was truly beautiful regardless of those two mishaps. The second dish was duck with blueberry and apple sauce. That was the absolute highlight of the evening! It was tender, juicy, full of flavour and honestly out of this world! 

The food was so delicious and filling we did not even consider having dessert!  The restaurant provides an extensive food and beverage menu, if fully licensed and has a great atmosphere! Highly recommend to all tourists and locals, including families, friends, bigger events or even dates.
