1. Dametra Cafe

AU$28Middle Eastern Cuisine

琳达Linda琳达Dametra Cafe is a local internet celebrity, I came here because of its reputation. The food here is really good, and it is cooked with great care. I especially like their steaks. The atmosphere is great, and foreigners will sing and dance inside. It feels more romantic near the beach.

2. Carmel Bakery

moxiaoyaAmerican bakeries feel a bit rough, and they really can't compare to French dessert shops. Even many domestic shops can't compare. And people here really like sweet food. All desserts are sweet, but they don't think so. No wonder most of them are overweight, it's really high in calories. The four of us each chose 2 breads, and in the end, only 2 of them were delicious. I can't say they were very delicious, but they were just okay. The others were quite sweet. Well, I can't remember which ones they were, after all, I went to the United States in October, and my memory is really not good. But there was a big apple on the bread display stand, wrapped in a circle of chocolate, and then covered with candy particles all around, with a wooden stick inserted, like a huge lollipop, very cute. I have seen the same dessert in many bakeries and wanted to try it, but I was afraid it was too sweet and felt that I would definitely not be able to finish it, so I didn't dare to try it. Later, when I was eating a buffet in Las Vegas, there were also the same apple lollipops in the dessert area, and I tried one decisively. Haha, it's not delicious, it's just a flashy apple. Does it think it's not an apple just because it's wearing a fancy coat? This is a well-reviewed bakery in Carmel, but the quality is really disappointing.

9. Affina

love is blueWe have been eating at Afina since they opened and we are never disappointed. The starters were good, the aperitifs were good, and we ended up splitting the steak which was tender to our liking and tasted perfect. There is a piano by the front door which gives the room a homely feel and the guy who plays it is the best! He does the old standards and requests and we ended up staying for dessert too.
