1. Manresa

AU$90Western-style

travelerererA friend recommended me to this creative cooking restaurant called Manresa. I have to say, the dishes in this restaurant are really full of various ideas. No wonder the business is so good.

2. 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.

3. La Fondue

travelerererI didn’t expect that this hot pot restaurant also has pepper chicken among the soup base options. Although the price is really not cheap, you have to know that this ingredient is particularly nourishing and nutritious. I decisively chose this soup base, and the portion is really more than enough!

4. Zona Rosa

AU$41Latin American

love is blueSecond time at this delightful restaurant. This time we started with the great avocado bacon!!! Each had a classic margarita - delicious and rich! We then tried the salmon tacos, and went with the Modelo Espeziales - the tacos were amazing (we would have them again!). The service was delightful as always and we felt very well taken care of. This is our go to Mexican restaurant. Everything on the menu is good so we need to try them all!

8. 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.
