Rockin' the Pool


Well to wave goodbye to Dr. Nance, she decided we were going to eat out and eat well! So she naturally selected the restaurant that was rated Melbourne's best in the 2007 Good Food Guide. Naturally.

Since we had a large group, we were given what was essentially a private room, decked out in large table, large leather chairs (with arm rests) and mood lighting. A few people commented that it was like a boardroom.



So here are some snaps and dishes for the night


With Dr. Nance

Drinking. Always drinking

Entree of sashimi

Baby octopus and polenta

My main - Duck confit and grilled pear

The $10 side of mac & cheese - worth every dollar!!!

Rachie's Seared Tuna

Salad of grilled vegies and goat's cheese

My dessert of passionfruit pavlova. Num nums!!!

We got Nance some Marc Jacobs shoes for her going away pressie. SEXY!!!

So do I rate Rockpool? Oooh yeah! At approx $100/head (due to the 10% Sunday surchage) I fully believe it was a better experience than Nobu. But don't get the onion rings - they're a heart attack waiting to happen.
