The Deckhouse (Woolwich) 10th July 2011

With one of our number interstate (if you can call ACT a state!), we happy few were joined by a guest to try out this much vaunted venue. Well, it lived up to its reputation.

A beautiful Sydney winter's sun dappled through the eucalypts that framed the priceless views from Woolwich point (on the north side) out towards the harbour, with the Harbour bridge and CBD in the distance. Yachts sailed by, birds sang and... the coffee was plentiful.

The conversation flowed, assisted by sensitive but obliging service, and the food was the perfect pitch for this tres tres Sydney brunch spot. To give our readers a sense of how much we enjoyed this morning at one point the waitress asked, "Is there anything else I can get you? More coffee? The lunch menu?!" Was it really that late?...

Perhaps the rose-tinted take on the morning was enhanced by the fact that our Quiz score was...15/15!! Only our second perfect score.





Ratings:

BRAD: I admit it the food was probably reasonable but I was so swept up in the whole morning that I really can't fault it. Reasonable prices, great service and perfect setting. Five full golden eggs.

SAL: Simple Darling. Five Golden Eggs. I'll be back.

JAMES: "This is the life! Sign me up! What's that you say about golden eggs?"
