18 Apr - The Roasting Duck Restaurant, Northbridge


Last night, CB and I were in Highgate/Northbridge to see an "amateur" comedy night held at the Brisbane Hotel. Before however, we went to grab a bite to eat in Northbridge, which was only a short walk away.

I originally wanted to go to Good Fortune, after eating there once for lunch. I was really hankering for some roast duck, char siu and rice, however once we got there, the line was out the door, and we didn't have enough time to wait around.

Instead, we went to The Roasting Duck, which was only up the road. These guys also have roast duck and char siu, however it seems that their restaurant at night doesn't serve it :-( Instead, we opted for a couple of dishes, steamed rice and some Chinese tea.

The two dishes we chose were 'Garlic King Prawns' and 'Chicken fillet and vegetables'. They were relatively simple tasty dishes, the only downsides was the near raw onion in the prawns and the rather large prices. But in the end, we finished our meal with enough time to spare to get back to the hotel and grab a seat. There were four acts in total, with the first ones being a bit shizenhouzen and the last couple being the best.
