Big weekend for dining while I was in my happy place on the YP.
Ye Olde Cafe @ Moonta Friday night for some satay chicken and an open yiros type dish, both under $25 and both were superb.
Saturday evening was a trip to the Ale House @ Wallaroo where a seafood platter and a 400g Waygu t-bone were consumed for $36 & $44 respectively, platter was the pick of the dishes, the steak was cooked to perfection but I would've liked to have taken my own scales there.
Sunday we booked into the Bond Store Cafe @ Wallaroo and once again, this place never disappoints, a tad on the pricey side but I don't mind paying for quality. after some deliberation we decided on going the Grand Poobah of food on their menu, the Parilla Platter which consisted of Waygu Beef Rump, Lamb Backstrap and Scotch Fillet along with an array of sides consisting of mushies, pumpkin, artichokes, potato, corn and a few other bits and pieces.
It was $109 but was super impressive, pretty much everyone in the place watched it come out and some even wanted a photo of it, it did taste as good as it looked.
We then decided to cut our getaway early as I had purchased a smoker on Friday and wanted to get back in time to buy some meat to cook up in it and erect the fine piece of machinery, it's a pitboss pellet smoker which I'm going to have plenty of fun with, I had to sell my manual one as I'd end up drinking a carton of piss watching the temperature all day, this one is the absolute tits, I just load it up and let it cook whilst the internal temperatures are displayed on the unit.
