HUX Bistro, Canly Vale – Closed
Edit: CLOSED
I’ve been dying to drag the boy along to HUX Bistro at Richard’s On the Park (41 Canley Vale Road, Canley Vale) ever since drooling all over a pic Baby Mooksy posted on the wonderful world that is Instagram. Oh and if that dude looks familiar it’s super nice guy 2011 Masterchef contestant Jay Huxley 😛
CHECK IT OUT!!! That beauty is a 1.3kg Tomahawk Ribeye on the bone ($88)! This special comes with 4 sides (with FREE refills!) and 3 sauces and it’s recommended to share between 2-3 people but lol Noods thought we could handle it. Famous last words…
Yeahhh baby! The Tomahawk does take a while to cook so be sure to call up (9755 5234) in advance if you have patience issues.
Jay came out to slice up the Tomahawk for us and we were let in on a lil secret that suckling pig may appear on the menu soon woot
This steak was amazing. Quite possibly the best steak I’ve had all year! The blood cells in my anaemic body were crying in happiness at the overload of delicious protein entering my system. Man it was glorious! It had the perfect ratio of juicy tender meat to pockets of creamy fat! I don’t want to say it melts in the mouth because apparently only M&M’s melt in your mouth (and not in your hand) but damn it was mind blowingly awesome.
Aaaand of course I had to pick up the bone and gnaw at it caveman style. BEST FEELING EVER. Helloooo caramelised fatty edges!
Here’s 3/4 of the sides- fat golden fries which we dived right in before we eventually and reluctantly reached for the salad and steamed veggies when we started developing meat sweats. The three sauces were mushroom, pepper and uh nfi on the last one but I prefer eating steak sans sauce anyways.
And the 4th side! Even though they’re not made in house the onion rings get a pic by themselves because they were ridiculously addictive, golden and crisp they disappeared within seconds into our onion ring deprived souls.
And then…we ordered dessert, because I like reminding my stomach who exactly is boss. I couldn’t resist the Deep fried brownie ($10) because well, DEEP. FRIED. BROWNIE! Crisp edges gives way to a gooey and almost molten lava chocolatey centre. The scoop of caramel macadamia ice cream and puddle of raspberry coulis helped cut through the richness of the brownie but in the end we only managed to make it halfway before admitting defeat.
It was pretty quiet at lunch but apparently it gets packed out at dinner. Not sure what’s the go at dinner but we ordered our food at the counter and drinks at the bar. Oh and it’s cash only but there’s an ATM near the pokies out back. Anywhos I’ll be back soon to get my steak fix!
