Sunshine Coast Restaurants.

[Major]

I noticed that Pitchfork Restaurant - Home received a good write up in the SundayMail and they are closing for renovations until 18 June.

Perhaps we should have an AFF gathering after they reopen, to check out the menu and wine list

I have started another thread for this

Unfortunately it looks like Stillwater at Maroochydore has closed.

A pity as I was going to suggest this restaurant for our next get together

The Reserve Restaurant at Maleny.

Home - Reserve Restaurant Cellar - Maleny Sunshine Coast Hinterland

Happy to go and see them and we can get what ever menu we want or doing a something special.

SWMBO saw the "For Lease" sign last week doesn't look like it's a relocation........it was - a top spot!

FWIW another place that's worth a visit is here Sakana Sushi Bar, Mooloolaba

A sad day for us losing Stillwater.

Today it was a long Christmas lunch at Wasabi,Noosa.Fabulous food.9 of us and had an 11 course extravaganza ashed down with Cloudy bay SB and a very nice pinot noir.

Will be enjoying a meal here shortly. If I don't overindulge too much I'll post some photos

Have just read this thread cover to cover, making me hungry now. One of these days I'll get up to one of the restaurants critiqued and/or done with a couple of you.

Next is a newcomer at Dicky beach.Yume Japanese restaurant.Very small,BYO and if we take our wine usually~$50 for the food.

Run by a fellow from Osaka so you can dine on things like Okonomiyaki and octopus balls.But also the classics-sushi,sashimi,tempura etc.
Really need to book though as only a few tables and already popular with the locals

You had me at Okonomiyaki - I love Japanese (but Mrs QF WP not a fan).

Been to The Boatshed at Cotton Tree a couple of times on family functions. Great vista, service and food.

LW, if you both like Italian food I can recommend Cala Luna at Maroochydore.

Terrible website but the food is very good

Cala Luna Restaurant - Dinner & Dessert

Looks as if you scored our table.Very few better ways of spending a Sunday afternoon.
Whilst mrsdrron and myself lunched on sweet corn-fresh from the local Farmer's market.

Stop it amaroo - now I want Japanese!! Oh well, mums cooking a lamb roast so it'll have to do:

 

[serfty]

Akk! I have now developed a yearning ...

 

[QF WP]

My mother has never professed to love cooking but she does a mean roast. Simple food cooked well and with veges and a thick sauce made by use of the natural pan juices and lots of stirring.

If I wasn't a gentleman I'd have locked the plate clean - my daughter almost tried before I convinced her it was bad manners.

Now to venture up to the Sunshine Coast to sample from these restaurants - better get some more clients there

Re: Epiqure latest offering

Right, so we need to come to the Sunshine Coast for a tasting amaroo - I'll bring some older Noble Ones and Moss Wood . Maybe we can tie this in with a visit to a Sunshine Coast restaurant...

Needless to say, none of us should drive afterwards - it's spouses or taxis

Sounds like a plan... Not that I drink alcohol

 

[QF WP]

Seems that we have the wines and a group of willing participants...now to organise
