Your Place Dining (North Sydney)

Catching up with friends on a Friday night, we decided to stay local and went to Your Place Dining. The restaurant operates as a café during the day and a fine dining Thai restaurant at night.

We always judge our Thai restaurant by the duck red curry. This particular one did not disappoint offering a generous portion of duck with nice, thick gravy. Do try the salmon soufflé for entrée which gives an interesting texture for a fish dish – I liken it to an hybrid of fish ball and marshmallow.

The Boathouse on Blackwattle Bay (Sydney)

To celebrate the holidays, we visited The Boathouse on Blackwattle Bay on Christmas Eve. We were seated at the corner overlooking the Anzac Bridge which was a fantastic setting for our dinner.

The menu contains a large array of fish dishes. We really enjoyed the entrees. The king salmon worked very well with the smoothness of avocado, as did the seared kingfish with chorizo.

I had the signature snapper pie which was generous and the perfect comfort food. The fish was not overcooked even with my second helping.

Hope everyone had a great holiday season!
