Tony Roma's (Sydney)

We were craving for some tangy barbeque sauce after a long day at work. So off we went to Tony Roma’s near the Sydney CBD, hoping for a nice rack of ribs.

The dining room was very quiet on a Tuesday night. We ordered the big onion loaf which was ok. The lamb ribs were nice and juicy but the supposedly signature pork ribs were rather dry. The portion size was rather big so we left the place rather satisfied.

Hurricane's Grill & Bar (Top Ryde)

I never had any luck in securing a booking at the Hurricane’s at Darling Harbour or Bondi. So it was third time lucky when I finally got in at its newly open restaurant at Top Ryde.

Living up to its reputation, the ribs were top notch. My full rack of lamb ribs were tender with the right amount of fat, complimented well with the basting sauce. The reminiscence of the sauce and fat was with me for the rest of the evening.

Service was very quick and error free – essential given they want our table back within 90 minutes.
