I tried the Spiced Cauliflower and Goats Curd and Fried Soft Shell Crab with School Prawns, shredded cabbage, Honey and Chardonnay Vinegar which were pretty good as well!

Was such a lovely experience for dinner. I'd heard they weren't so great for the breakfast/lunch gig, more so on the service side of things. Thanks for the heads up.

It started with the flat white I ordered and then proceeded to go downhill from there. The coffee arrived in a cup half full. I have never seen this anywhere else on the planet. I actually thought they had given me an espresso by mistake. When I asked the waiter he replied 'that's how we do it here'. I had to ask for more hot milk to fill my cup.The waiter then proceeded to have a gossip with the manager and they both turned to look disapprovingly over at our table....tsk tsk....After checking the menu for 5 minutes I ordered the Watermelon Salad only to be told that it wasn't available (why wasn't this mentioned when the menu was given to us??...not like there was a huge selection to start with). I instead ordered toast with a selection of jams. The toast arrived stone cold with 3 jars of jams, one almost empty. The jars looked dirty and were caked with jam around the rim. My friend ordered a muesli without yogurt and received muesli without yogurt AND without the poached fruit! When she asked the waiter that she wanted the poached fruit he literally rolled his eyes and took it back. Then we needed more milk for the muesli because the milk container that accompanied the muesli was tiny. It was as though they were on war rations there. I would seriously question this places reputation and suggest people avoid like the plague. I think the staff were rude and poorly trained. No Stars from me.

It is worth it. Hiya Thanh - ahh, the long weekend was awesome - I'll report back shortly on the blog. I really liked the Moonlight en Surface, just because it was really delicate. I normally don't like those really irony types (ie. Sydney Rocks), but this was just divine. Hi there Maria – well, you must certainly make the effort. It is worth it.

I too have been meaning to go to Cumulus for so long. The one time I went there was a two hour wait and I had something else to get to so couldn't wait. Which oyster type did you like best? I'm trying to notice the oyster types now as they really do produce a different flavour. Oyster appreciation is going the way of wines almost I think. I absolutely love oysters so am trying to learn more. Hey Mellie, firstly how was the long weekend holiday?
