Chargrilled Tuna
I had the most delicious char grilled tuna which was cooked perfectly with roasted veggie salad YUM
Alana Kelsey Beef Parmigiana
This wasn’t one of those sad, soggy pub parmis that looks like it’s been through a minor flood. Nah — this was a proper unit.
Michael Jamieson Harrisa Lamb Ragù Pappardelle
Slow-cooked lamb that had clearly been simmering longer than most people’s New Year’s resolutions. Rich, silky, falling apart like a politician under questioning.

Ordered the Big Boatie Burger. Went down a treat. Very nice.
