We were staying at the Pulitzer Hotel just across the road and wandered over to Salina for dinner – what a discovery!
We started with crisp cod fritters and the most tempura prawns. For the main, the seabass with oyster mushrooms was next-level delicious.
We shared a lovely bottle of wine to start, but as the night rolled on, so did the good times – dessert, more wine, gin with homemade tonic, margaritas and even shots made an appearance.
