Tobs had the eggs benedict set (which rocked) while my scrambled eggs set paled in contrast (but was still okay, to be fair).
There was also another couple dining in and their handsome little boy. Ooooh massive cuteness!
Then we gave up trying to walk to Central Station to catch the shuttle to Hillsongs at 188 Young Street, Waterloo and took a cab instead to reach our destination in good time for the 9.45am service.
Alas they sang really new songs and not the ones I was used to. Still, a good experience, nevertheless.When we were waiting after service for the shuttle service to take us to Central Station, I chanced upon this:
It should read Deco Rug but I wasn't able to capture the "D". Even after getting to Central Station and enroute to get lunch, there were still more ads by the very skilled pilot. This one seemed more like a proposal:
The sad thing for weibin is that he should have paid for 2 planes to do his love message cos by the time the girl's name was out, his was almost all gone. haha!
Lunch was at Mohr Fish at 202 Devonshire Street. Quite an old establishment but I love that rustic feel to the place. However, eat in prices are crazy expensive compared to take out. Like AUD22 v.s AUD9.50 for fish and chips. So being very price conscious (and also having the benefit of my research that there's a nearby park), we decided to take out their fish and chips and calamari rings.
The volume was reasonably large but the food very fried. But this is expected from fish and chips, no? After polishing up the mains and leaving behind a lot of chips, we headed for gelato at Messina.
I can't give you the exact location but do google for it. They're becoming quite well known in Sydney. I heart their salted caramel white chocolate flavour. Do try golden gaytime as well. And prices are darn reasonable! AUD5 for 2 scoops in a cone.
Then it was a quick stopover at Chinatown to take a look. Went to take a look at Paddy's Market but didn't see anything that interests me. But check out Market City, there are quite a few outlets in there. We stopped at the Vitamin Store and got some supplements (evening primrose oil AUD41.50 for 400 capsules, omega3 AUD14.95 for 400 capsules).
Decided to head down to Circular Quay to catch a cruise to the Biennale, which was on Cockatoo Island. Enroute, we caught another rainbow!
- TIP: Find out the route for the Free Bus 555 that loops from Circular Quay to Central Station and goes around the CBT - very useful for budget conscious travellers!
Actually we weren't too keen on visiting all the Biennale exhibits. It was more to have a free ride
and then see the island for ourselves.
Dinner was at Yokozuna, 189 Oxford Street, Darlinghurst. I suspect it's family run really cos I saw an old couple busying about in the kitchen and a young lady serving customers. We had the tofu and seaweed salad (yums!), grilled scallops and salmon roll (too much rice and not very nice). The scallops were really nice and fresh. The damage only came up to AUD38 so it wasn't too bad.
