A Bite of Asia

76 Dorchester Street, Sydney (Old Chandlers Bar)
Due to a death in the family, this blog entry will be incredibly brief.  On April 1st, ten members met at the newest restaurant in Sydney, A Bite of Asia, and had an awesome time.

The food was great - we all enjoyed our choice of dinners, from the beginnings:

Best Wonton Soup She'd Ever Had (actual quote)

Tom Yum Soup (just a bit spicy)

Spring rolls (crispy and fresh)

to the middles:






including the Pad Thai dishes:



to the dessert:

And throughout our meal, our tea service was replenished as required. Pretty, isn't it?


Wonderful new flavours, great atmosphere and attentive staff - we will all be stopping in again.

Steel City Sports Bar

252 Townsend Street, Sydney Really, everyone knows where it is. For our last outing of the year, we decided to go to Steel City, which has been in business since like forever. Our readers will know that we do not hesitate to dine in bars - we are an adventuresome bunch. And as some of us in the bunch are a bit older, some of us have dined in different bars over the years.  So we can tell you with a wealth of experience behind us that the Steel City is a well-designed drinking establishment. As you can see in the photo, it is on one level; there isn't even a step up when you walk in. There is no falling down the stairs to the bathroom or yes, as I have, fallen up the stairs to the bathroom. In fact, there are no stairs to the bathroom. You can have a few and retain your dignity at Steel City.There is parking on two sides, many doors in case you have to leave quickly, a dance floor and a small stage for local bands.  A large group of us met up on the Thursday eve...

Italian Buffet, Polish Hall, Whitney Pier, Again

Image
      For the third year in a row, the UAG met up at St. Michael's Polish Hall in the Pier for the Italian buffet, part of the annual celebration entitled "Pierscape." Money raised from the buffet goes to the Whitney Pier Society for the Arts and judging by the number of people at the buffet, it's an excellent fundraiser.       Everything that I wrote last year (see May 2016) applies again this year. We have gained a couple of UAG members in the last few months, so it was their first time attending the buffet. However, they had heard about the selection of Italian dishes and the home-made eclairs! And since it was the same cook, may God continue to bless Kay, the food was delicious once again - our new members were not disappointed. Furthermore, the members of UAG were not quite so shy this year.  When Kay told us that she didn't want to see any food left on the buffet table, several of us filled up plates to take home with us. Imagine, we will each h...

Point of View Beggars' Banquet

15 Commercial Street Extension, Louisbourg For our August outing, a group of ten UAG members headed to the Point of View Suites in Louisbourg for an evening of music, skits and large platters of delicious food. It was a wonderful evening! Thanks to Meg for providing these images: Everyone has to get in to costume before dinner! So much music and laughter! Everyone enjoyed their meal selections. And yes, there was even lobster! This outing was a tremendous success and will definitely be on our To-Do List for 2018!
