This is the curry beef bun I bought last night. Not much filling - this was the section that had the most - and hardly any beef. There were maybe three tiny cubes inside.[gallery order="DESC" link="file" columns="2" ids="2846,2844"] Emperor's Garden Bakery 96-100 Hay Street Haymarket, NSW, 2000 (02) 9211 2135 http://www.emperorsgarden.com.au/Home.php ...
Walking around Harbourside I noticed a lot of the restaurants had dinner specials on, particularly early dinner specials. Olivo had a $35pp special which consisted of any entree, any main and a drink (including wine). Mum: - Entree: Homemade scallop and barramundi ravioli - Main: Lamb rump with feta, sun-dried tomatoes and oven-roasted potatoes Me: - Entree: Mussels with a tomato based-sauce - Main: Grain-fed eye fillet with sweet-potato mash [gallery order="DESC" link="file" columns="2" ids="2836,2838,2837,2835,2839"] I think I picked the better dish combination, though to be fair, mum only picked the lamb because she'd had the...

Walking down the stairs we were greeted by a simple, bright green sign displaying ezard's name. As usual, we were provided with bread, which was continually supplied throughout the night. Along with the bread was a parmesan, garlic and rosemary infused olive oil, which could be dipped into one of three accompaniments: a Sichuan pepper-based one, a finely milled sugar and chilli one and another with nori, salt, and a few other things. Our favourite was the nori, but the sugar and chilli one was quite nice as long...
I came here for a colleague's farewell, and while the others ordered pizzas, I wasn't able to eat it so I ordered a main instead: lamb back strap, tomato pâté, olive tapenade, baby eggplant, candy peppers. It took quite a long time to arrive - apparently it had been given to the wrong table even though they hadn't ordered it. I saw photos of this dish online and they showed two giant pieces of eggplant, presumably both sides of a whole, however, mine was only half of a skinny...
