Biota Dining (Bowral)

Enroute back to Sydney after a weekend away at the Snowy Mountains, we stopped by at Biota Dining in Bowral for lunch. To ensure we maximised our enjoyment on a warm Sunday afternoon, we went for the 5 course degustation.

The dishes were beautifully presented from start to finish. The smoked trout amuse bouche was quite a treat. (Unfortunately the photos after that were all lost). The sweetness of the raw fresh scampi and the gelatinous of the lamb breast were still afresh in my memory.

Yakiniku Kashiwa (Crows Nest)

Yakiniku grill is one of our favourite Japanese cuisine. And Kashiwa at Crows Nest is definitely our local go-to restaurant for yakiniku. You do need a booking to guarantee a place in the small but busy restaurant – but we usually arrive early for a quick 45 minute meal.

We recommend to start with the wagyu beef then branch out to other cuts of meat to your liking. All the meat dishes were perfectly marinated and no additional seasoning is required after grilling.
