Cuisine: modern Australian
Main:
Seared Tasmanian salmon with eggplant moussaka and a fennel orange salad
The salmon was overdone. It was a bit too dry for my liking. The moussaka was very average.
Dessert:
Hot chocolate fondant with coconut ice cream
The hot chocolate fondant was quite nice, oozing chocolate in the middle. The coconut ice cream was a joke. It tasted like supermarket vanilla ice cream with dessicated coconut stirred through it. The random cookie on the plate was out of place, had a small bite and it tasted stale.
Overall Impression: 3/10
Dissapointing. Wait staff tried extremely hard though. Each table is assigned to one waiter which is nice but there is such a thing as trying too hard. Our waiter kept asking us if everything was ok etc. Very average food.
