I've been working on something special for all my readers. So far its in spreadsheet form, but its a list of bars/pubs/cafes/anywhere that serves food and their food specials. It's pretty impressive so far, I've got 34 places and their weekly specials :)
Without further ado I present to you Super Wednesdays! $12 Grain fed Black Angus Porterhouse with chips or mash and a salad and your choice of sauce.
Yummmy! We all had mushroom sauce, and what impressed me the most about it is the fact there are large pieces of mushrooms in it! Normally at other places its some brown sauce they call mushroom, but this you can see the mushroom! The sauce was very tasty, much like gravy, and they gave you heaps of it! My chips was soaked in the sauce :) The meat was very good. I felt like I could taste the black angus grain fedness. It didn't taste like normal steak. Must be the grain :)
Another good thing about this meal was the portion control. The meat wasn't some huge slab on the plate, but it was a good size so it fills you up but doesn't give you food coma.
We had our doubts at first, and Jeff wasn't getting good feelings about the place when we first got there.
Its very dark in there and it is definately a grungy uni bar.
Heres what the back of the bar looks like. It doesn't look dark here but we had crazy flash going. Jeff said the toilets are the scariest he has ever been to, I did notice a lot of graffiti on the wall...
Anyway if you haven't gotten the overall feel of the place, heres another one. While having dinner the movie that was playing was called "Dead Snow", its a German nazi zombie movie.Uni students love zombie movies.
