Public Dining Room- Balmoral

Few weeks ago, I went to this restaurant in Balmoral with my friends. I really liked the foods there and we used our entertainment book voucher so it wasn't too bad priced as well.

It seems like they hold weddings and functions as well so if you are looking for nice beach side function, they could be considered as one option. (although I don't know the function pricings though...)

Anyway this was my dish

' Strozzapreti, king prawns, NZ clams, chilli, zucchini flowers, sardinian bottarga'

(Thanks for the photo from my friend S!!)

Bottarga tasted really nice and gave some saltiness to fresh pasta, and I loved the delicate zucchini flowers. Also prawn and clam was cooked to perfection, very soft. yum.

My friend orderd

'Thirlmere confit duck leg, smoked duck breast, lentils dupuy, young garlic, red wine & eschallot vinaigrette'

It was nice, crispy outside and soft inside. The presentation was lovely.

One of my other friend ordered '‘Melting’ Huon valley tasmanian salmon (sous vide), rockefeller sauce, pomme allumette', which was very very soft because of sous vide technic. But not everyone liked that soft texture of salmon. I personally liked it.

Other than foods, big advatage of this restaurant is of courst great view of the beach and spacious interior.

I really liked the restaurant overall, and planning to visit with my husband on some special day.
