Milk and Honey, Wood Fired Pizzas, Mullumbimby, Australia.

March 22, 2009

Ok, this is a must do.
Milk and Honey does the most amazing wood-fired pizzas.
The style is classic, with handmade thin crust that goes beautifully crunchy, and a thin layer of ingredients. There is no smothering of cheap and nasty cheese here.
Milk and Honey was packed out, which surprised us somewhat, being in the quiet town [...]

Review of Fishheads, Seafood Restaurant Byron Bay.

March 17, 2009

Fishheads seafood restaurant at Byron Bay is one of our favourites.
One thing is certain – there is a good selection of interesting seafood dishes, and it is always fresh.
Scallops, bugs, prawns, crabs, oysters…you name it, it’s there. And it’s not deep fried.
For those of you who don’t like seafood, try a steak, chicken or lamb [...]

Review of the Carindale Hotel, less than impressing…

October 25, 2008

The occasion -a birthday, the venue – Carindale Hotel.  First impressions were good.  Nice layout and atmosphere but sadly it was downhill from there.  I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – service, service, service!  Some of our party were already there, so we seated ourselves.  
Waited, waited and waited for service.  Menus were already on the table, when the waitress finally came to [...]

Review of Yellow Bistro & Food Store, Potts Point, Sydney NSW.

May 9, 2008

Yellow Bistro was recommended to us by a local in Potts Point, and wow, we can see why this place is a true favourite.
Located on Macleay St, Yellow Bistro is one of those cafes where the menu is unique, enticing and frustrating – there are just so many choices available.
