It had been a busy day for most of us; Lisa was the obvious exception as she struggled out of her pyjamas just before entering the car to travel to this restaurant. Mark had climbed the Dandenongs on his deadly treadly and then backed it up with a marathon jigsaw puzzle session. I had completed a corporate triathlon and Matt had driven in a car on the road for the first time (Report: OK but watch the speed.) We had also had to hold our collective breaths a number of times as we watched Michael Clark being bashed (literally) in South Africa. He’s tough, he survived.
So we were hungry and really appreciated the beef rending; it was truly slow cooked. Yum. We giggled over the practice of putting the rice bowl on a wine stand at the side of our table. We devoured the flavoursome Tamarind fish; bitter but in a good way. The green curry chicken did the job and there were no complaints all around except for 1; No lazy Susan. Everyone else was seated at a table with one except for us.
Obviously these guys know the formula;
Flavour = crowds
This is where middle Elsternwick goes, toting copious amounts of wine bottles,kids, grandparents and noisy conversations to squeeze that last little bit left of weekend joy.
