The One That Got Away

We visited this restaurant as it was recommended to us by one of the locals. Its got an interesting name and we decide to visit it one evening after our trip to Bondi Beach. We walked to the restaurant from Bondi to further build up our appetite.

On arrival the restaurant looks like a wholesale shop selling fresh seafood with the front window offering a view of fresh seafood that beckons you to come in for a visit. As you enter the restaurant there is a long cooling display unit with an assortment of seafood on our side and some limited seating on the opposite side.

We were welcomed by the friendly staff who explained how the restaurant works. Most of the seafood has price tags of each item by the kg. One has to just choose the type of seafood, quantity in grams and they way you want it cooked. Then sit back and relax while you wait for your food to arrive. I would recommend eating in so you can taste it nice and piping hot once its prepared and always order more items as you go along.

There is many items to choose from and options of raw seafood (sahshimi) and oysters to cooked seafood (including some items which have been marinated) to some choice of salads.

We ordered 2 different set of oysters and it is reasonably priced with each set coming with a dozen oysters. Oysters tasted really fresh and creamy.

We then moved on to try a host of different fish each with its own marinate including sword fish an salmon. All the dishes were well marinated, tasted fresh and flavorful. Each item was grilled just right. We then added some prawns which were equally good as well. The marinates have a Asian flavor with mixture of spicy and sweet flavors.

I would highly recommend this place if you are visiting Sydney and looking for some really good seafood and having a good time without burning a hold in your pocket.

Great range of fish freshly cooked. Price of fish is high compared with the first market. Very nicely cooked and fresh
