Sometimes they look a bit too perfect for instagram, but scratch under the surface and you at let down. The Salmon does look quite cool, but I've never understood the whole foam aspect some chefs use. Also, three polenta chips for $4!!! I'm not surprised at your ratings!

Also, the foam doesn't work for me. Perhaps it was there to coverup the unappealing looking salmon. <br />The place would likely be popular here with the IG crowd. $4 AUD for boiled and fried cornmeal seems a bit pricy to me as well. <br />Thanks for sharingRonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03589980076199438534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-545417195724107201.post-69886913510431322792019-12-17T11:29:40.658+10:002019-12-17T11:29:40.658+10:00yes david it looked great but what's the point...yes david it looked great but what's the point if the flavour is off?:-) this whole ' you eat with your eyes' rubbish really annoys me. i don't really care what a meal looks like; it just has to taste good. same with techniques. needs to taste good first!Sherry's Pickingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12115648682007275136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-545417195724107201.post-42753087664207320062019-12-17T11:28:07.363+10:002019-12-17T11:28:07.363+10:00i know! gold plated chips indeed. just not our t...i know! gold plated chips indeed. just not our thing i reckon. too trendy for words. and so many grammers taking selfies. it was kinda ridiculous.

However, if the taste can't live up to the presentation, then it's not worth it. I do agree that this place seems rather expensive for what you get. I don't know how it is down there, but the restaurant competition is intense here.
