Euro Lounge (Shop 21, The Piazza, Castle Towers, Old Northern Rd, Castle Hill) turns 1!

And for the special few who were invited to celebrate their birthday there were drinks and canapes aplenty. Me and noods were lucky to score an invite and its not every day the restaurant owners recognise the food blogging community so cheers to Peter & Karlene for their support!

Peter and their head chef Alex Hau

Truffle infused Tasmanian Brie with Pear and Walnut- this cheese was my favourite the whole night i was craving more and more of the creamy brie with the rich and earthy truffles. The round balls were goats cheese Petit Fours with Tomato & basil jam.

Crostini with Beef Tatar and fried Quail egg heehee the mini eggs are so cute! Euro Lounge uses Game Farm produce which happens to be one of noods’ clients!

Chilli Salt Squid with Aioli. Spicy but very moreish!

Chicken Saltim Bocca on Lemongrass Skewers. oh so tender chicken with crispy prociutto

Potato crusted Prawns with chilli sour cream and dried Prociutto. i dont think ive ever had prawns with sour cream but it was definitely tasty with a poweful kick of chilli and i loved the crispy potato shell on the prawn

Sydney Rock Oyster Margherita Shots and Oysters with Lemon & Mango Jelly. noods loved the shots but i particularely liked the mango jelly it complimented the oysters perfectly

Tasmanian Salmon Tartar & Scallop Stack with Black Caviar. my 2nd fav of the night the scallop was a juicy morsel hidden under the salmon

Duck consomme with crispy ricotta & chive raviloi mmm soul cleansing

Our favourite waiter who made sure i got the chance to take a foto of the foods before letting anyone disturb it hehe

Our favourite waitress who always greets us with a smile and asks if we’re having the wagyu!

awww and thanks to karlene for organising mini cupcakes and a sparkler for noods! Happy birthday Euro Lounge!
