Hello everyone. I cannot find a better thread but any recommendations from Sydney folk about best fish and chips to enjoy beach side. Years ago loved Bottom of the Harbor and going to Bathers Pavilion but reviews from a range of sources underwhelming to say the least
Staying Sofitel darling harbor but plan to meet friends Mosman way
Thanks in appreciation!

Doyles always had the wow factor but haven't been there for years especially on the ferry. I used to love Bathers Pavilion but again haven't been there for years

The Pub next to Doyles at Watson's Bay used to have F&C shop window which we have eaten at a few times. Buy F&C and sit in park to eat.

Doyles best years are way behind it. Used to be a regular for me through Uni and then after marriage. but by the late 70s it had got dearer, trendy and smaller servings. Not what you want for a old fashioned fish and chips experience.

Last week at Tattersalls Club in Brisbane:







Really enjoyed the whole meal. Mouth just watered thinking of it

This week at The Brisbane Club:






Underwhelmed by the entree but the main (barramundi) was really nice. Would definitely have that again

Lunch seminar at Sofitel Brisbane:



The wedge of lemon was needed, made the entree



Beautiful slab of beef, perfectly cooked medium rare:



See this is how to do dessert. Could have polished off another.

Then yesterday was down at Howard Wharves, underneath the Storey Bridge. Couldn’t reach over and get the menu:

Mains: Succulent chicken breast



Sides:



Dessert. Really needed something else to cut through the heavy chocolate mousse - slices of citrus would have complemented it nicely. Even some crème.

Seafood char kway teow. Room service in Singapore.

Goan fish curry

AFF CBR meetup at The Kingo.

Had the trusted Halloumi and beet root sandwich with chips. Asked for a side of chilli to go with the meal. Loved it

Dosa

My favourite

Back to the Sofitel today in a private room for another lunch seminar. Thankfully a different menu:





A bit of a small entree, but tasty:



Have always loved peas and risotto and this didn’t disappoint. Just wish I could cook a decent risotto:

Love the food photos but no need to have the soft food cough look. Do you think you could clean give the lens in a wash of champagne soon?

 

[QF WP]

Just for you @TheRealTMA I’ve cleaned the lens.

A few days ago - Chibab, Emirati style pancake with cream cheese and honey. Don’t know where that combination has been all my life. Posted this in the EK thread as this was in the DXB F lounge.
