May 05: Birthday celebrations part 2




















This evening we went to The Bathers Pavillion at Balmoral, home of one of Sydney's most famous restaurants.  As we don't get out much any more (we're not expecting any sympathy) we splashed out on the full works, a 9 course degustation menu with matching wines.  The food was fantastic but our highlights were;
Kingfish sashimi with pepper crust, watermelon puree and daikon radish, 
Pan fried snapper with sweetcorn puree,
Gypsland triple cream Brie with berry jam apple & pear crisp and Parmesan crumb,
Raspberry, white chocolate and pistachio millefuille with pistachio ice cream and raspberries,
After 4 hours we rolled home feeling happy, full and decidedly poorer.
It was worth every cent!
