One of the girls at work finished last week but due to commitments we couldn't do anything last week, so we decided on dinner tonight. A suggestion was made for Georges Paragon at Eagle St Pier. I hadn't heard of it, but there were some ooos and ahhhs, so OK. Apparently if you order between 530 and 630 it is half price...I like the sound of that!
So in we went, and it was great. A bit more upmarket than my usual fare, but let's face it Eagle St Pier is one of those places where the pretty people hang out and are seen. The huge picture windows looked out over the river, and the story bridge was all lit up... oh, so pretty. On the down side a bit noisy but in fairness it was a Friday and everyone was ordering by 630 - I think if you were earlier, or mid week it would be awesome.
I had grilled snapper with king prawns, and there was some sauce which was brandy, garlic and cream, accompanied by a small bowl of chips. Size of the serving was perfect for me, and thoughts of the dessert menu faded as I didn't think I could fit it in. Everyone loved their meals, and for the people not so happy with seafood there were - as one of the girls put it "farm animals" for the others.
Now I'm home and feeling quite content. Maybe a shower and into jammies, with my book.
