Restaurants I recommend

imdb

I love food. I love photography. I take photos of the food I eat at restaurants to practise as food photography is considered quite difficult.

The other reason I am writing this, in addition to sharing with others of the good (or bad) restaurants I’ve visited, is to remind me of what I had so that I can order (or NOT order) the food again next time.

I am not paid to write for the restaurants so I can only sample the dishes via multiple visits. The photos will therefore change over time as I take better pictures and try new dishes.

Hope you enjoy them.

Many restaurants can leave you a bit disappointed with either great view but food was not quite up to par.

Not Aqua Dining.

This restaurant offers both! Seriously, both!

You get a spectacular view of Sydney as well as a rare angle of the Luna Park:

The height is just perfect without any need for any perspective correction software.

The food is just beautiful. I'll let the pictures do the talking. Have a look:

The boring stuff:

The food is genuinely good. The service is above par and, I keep saying it, the view spectacular.

Parking is not too difficult to find - the restaurant is situated in a mixed residential and offices which means at night time and weekends, there are not a lot of business traffic.

Parking for weekday lunches may be a bit more challenging but Milson's Point train station is near by.

For a truly fun experience, catch the ferry over from Circular Quay.
