A Hidden Gem Worth the Wait! π½οΈβ¨
Our first attempt to dine here ended in disappointment when we were turned away due to a fully booked evening. But fate intervened when we miraculously snagged a last-minute Friday dinner reservation during lunch break! First Visit Highlights ($135 for two with cocktails): π½οΈ Scallop Crudo - Fresh and vibrant with classic Southeast Asian sweet & sour notes, though slightly rich for solo diners π Red Curry Prawns - Solid but predictable; the real star was the buttery soft pumpkin! π π Nasi Goreng - Absolute perfection! That addictive salty-sweet balance we crave π₯¦ Cauliflower "Wings" - Mind-blowing! Achieved that magical umami depth that tricks your brain into thinking it's eating meat π€― Second Visit - "Trust Me" Menu Experience: π₯ Starters: β’ Prawn-topped crackers (delicate and delicious) β’ Refreshing salad on crispy wonton skins π Mains Mishap: β’ Confusing carb overload - steamed rice + stir-fried noodles + green papaya salad (flavor fatigue set in quickly) π Finale: β’ Overly salty fried chicken (meh) β’ Warm, pillowy flatbread (the saving grace!) Verdict: π Γ la carte > Trust Me menu (better flavor variety) π Cauliflower = MUST-ORDER every time πWorth the booking hassle for those flavor explosions. #Australia #CoffsHarbour#HiddenGem #ModernAsian #UnexpectedFlavors #CauliflowerMagic #FoodieFinds
