Redlands RSL: Choc Peppermint Tim Tam cocktail and Barramundi crusted with macadamias

It's New Years Eve and we decide to catch the courtesy bus to Redlands RSL in Cleveland, QLD Australia. A live band is advertised and there is the Sails on Shore bistro to dine in. I spy a sign that says Cocktails (sorry it's so blurred in the photo).


One of the Cocktails is a Choc Peppermint Tim Tam Cocktail


I peruse the menu and choose the Barramundi crusted with macadamias. Yumm! I was so excited that I forgot to take a photo until it was half eaten - oops! The fish is well cooked and the macadamia crust is very nice. It comes with vegetables including potato and leek.

Thai Siam: Steamed pacific oysters, stir fry fish with ginger, chilli and basil

A Saturday night Date Night at the Thai Siam. I'm in the mood for oysters and Thai Siam has some of the most amazing steamed pacific oysters that are twice or three times larger than normal and delicious.




Afterwards we ordered some stir fry fish with ginger, chilli and basil. Another favourite dish we order over and over again. The combination of ginger, chilli and basil with the fish is a very tasty stir fry. The fish was well cooked and the vegetables also. The coconut rice that accompanies it makes it a perfect meal.

Fish On Fire: WIld Barramundi with Greek Salad and Chips

I was feeling hungry for some fresh fish and Fish On Fire sells some of the freshest fish in Cleveland, so we headed to their Middle Street store. 




After browsing their fish on display I decided to purchase the Wild Barramundi meal which includes a salad of your choice (Greek salad, seafood salad or garden salad) and some lovely crunchy chips. 


We sat in their outdoor eatery in the balmy summer warmth with a light breeze. Very nice.

Sunshine on the Bay: Seafood Chowder, Barramundi and garlic prawns

A belated birthday dinner for my hubby Philip, we decided to dine at Sunshine on the Bay, in the Stockland Cleveland complex above Woolworths and other shops on Middle Street, Cleveland. .




I love this restaurant, the food and the friendly staff. We ordered a mixed dozen oysters, with four Natural, four Kilpatrick and four Tasman. They were delicious!




Unfortunately my favourite meal, Crab Mornay was not in season so I settled on Seafood Chowder, which is a favourite of mine. It was delicious, with a good amount of seafood, as well as small pieces of potato. It was creamy and went down a treat.

[ Seafood Chowder in Sour Dough Roll -  Delicious creamy San Francisco style
chowder blended with fresh prawns & tender calamari meat. Served with salad. $30 ]


Philip chose Barramundi with Garlic Prwns which came with chips and salad. The fish was well cooked and the chips are always amazing. The salad was nice, although Philip gave some of it for me to finish. I don't like to waste food. 


[ Bayside Barra - An old local favourite! A tasty collation of creamy garlic 
prawns presented over a plate seared Barramundi fillet. (GF option) SM19 LM 35 ]

Another great night at Sunshine on the Bay. Make sure you ask about the Crab Mornay. It is a foodgasm experience not to be missed!

Thai Siam , Cleveland - many return visits

I can't count how many times I have visited Thai Siam since we moved to Cleveland three (3) years  ago. It's just THAT good. We love our duck and seafood which is why the following menu items feature them.  
[ Duck Salad ]
[ Stir fry pork with oyster sauce ]
[ Singapore noodles $12 ]
[ Baby Snapper with salt and pepper seasoning (served whole) ]
Apart from their amazing menu, Thai Siam also has a great wine and beer list and some amazing cocktails. I have loved everything I have tried, especially the French Martini.

The Funky Mexican Cantina - fish tacos and flautas

A sunny afternoon at Raby Bay marina and my hubby and I decide we feel like Mexican food.

I wanted something light and fresh and decided upon the fish tacos. I was very happy with them and the guacamole was amazing. A great meal with view of the marina.

Hubby Philip decided upon some enchiladas. He found it a little bit messy but very tasty.
