battle of the puffs! a new breed has emerged! in the first corner we have the puffy cookie puff!

but wait folks dont misjudge this puff by its name until you try them! Puffy Cookie Puff is located in World Square under the escalators near Breadtop. the cookie puffs insides dont impress me as much as beard papas (look at the gaping hole where they cldve filled more custard!) and it doesnt taste as orgasmically good. i do like the crunchy golden ‘cookie’ bits but i was perturbed to see it all get squished when my razor sharp teeth deflated the puff. i would continue to buy the cookie puff but i wished the staff there would scratch themselves a little less while i was waiting for my puffs… or course after buying the cookie puff i needed a comparison and off we went from the city to chatswood to buy a chocolate, green tea and numerous vanilla puffs from beard papas. no im not greedy at all…

Lighthouse Restaurant (68-80 George St, Parramatta) is one of the better formal style restaurants in the area with a bar style area downstairs and the restaurant a short flight of stairs upwards

However with multiple return visits me and noods have come to the conclusion that many of their accompanying sauces are either neon green or a really artificial bright orange. Their Prix Fixe Menu is 2 courses for $36 and 3 courses for $39. The mains are usually close to hopeless but the entrees and desserts are almost always excellent (because they never seem to change bwahaha)

Smoked Tasmanian salmon with avocado, straw mushrooms and celery apple dressing

The celery apple dressing was interesting, providing a nice sweet crunch with the salmon. Avocado not so good/fresh

Chicken, asparagus and artichoke in puff pastry with Red Bell sauce

noods was worried the puff pastry would be like curry puff style but was happy to see that it was a vol au vant. oh wait maybe it was me that was happy mmm i love pastry…

Cornfed chicken kiev breast filled with fresh herbs and panfried in golden bread crumbs

can you people tell the difference between cornfed chicken and ‘other’ chicken? i can taste the difference with beef but not chicken… man this dish was overloaded on salt and the sauce tasted like they were trying to get it to brown too fast and slightly burnt it… but mmm breadcrumbs…

Freshwater fish fillet grilled with almond flakes and served with seafood emulsion

seriously ‘seafood emulsion’? i hate the word emulsion it makes me think of slimey mush… which is what the fish turned out like… it was soft all right. soft as MUSH!

Homemade tiramisu cake with coffee liqueur

fake cream. ugh. they never used to have fake cream. dude i think im allergic to fake cream. it makes me feel woozy. and not enough cake to cream ratio

Sticky date pudding with vanilla bean ice cream and butterscotch sauce

mmm warm pudding mmm butterscotch is the best sauce in the world (followed by cheese sauce mmm)
