Wrapped up my day with a short hop down to Jules' for a Mother's Day dinner in the midst of a sleepy private estate just five minutes from my place. It is an Australian restaurant that serves an eclectic mix of fusion fare for a rather reasonable price catered to the preferences of the mostly expatriate crowd staying around the nearby Australian International School. Even so, there were quite a few locals there on a weekend night. Probably the place gets rowdier as the night wears on as it transforms into a bar when the games come live on the big screen.

In the end I was the one who decided on what to order as my parents gave up trying to visualise what they offered via the menu. The food really took some time but all was forgotten when we finally put fork and knife to the delectable fare placed in front of us.


Grilled Garlic Prawn with Fetta and Chili Flakes


Grass-fed Tasmanian Scotch Fillet with Potato Gratin and Red Wine, Mushroom Jus


Grilled Red Snapper with Mash Potato, Roast Vegetable Salad and Lemon Vinaigrette


Lamb Cutlets with Warm Potato and Mint Salad, Wilted Spinach with Mustard Dressing.


Orange and Cardamom Cake with Ginger Nut Ice-cream


Sticky Fig Pudding with Bailey's Creme Caramel Sauce and Vanilla Bean Ice-cream

Special mention for the beef and desserts - My medium rare meat was inch perfect and went very well with the potato and mushrooms, through the latter was a tad too salty. The cake and pudding were sticky yet soft.. unlike normal ones one can procure elsewhere. The pudding really did it for me. Yum (:

No service charge and nett price makes it a very welcoming place for huge gatherings (easy to go Dutch without the need for a treasurer and calculator). Service was prompt through and you could leave a tip if you feel obliged to. Overall a wonderful dining experience with a rustic village feel and the best thing is - its just right by my house .

Here's the address if you're interested
Do make reservations as the dining area's rather small.
