High Hopes at the Hylander


This week I was lucky enough to get a 300 dollar voucher from Nova Radio to dine in at the Hylander Hotel.  And let me say straight up that the food was delicious! Sadly there are only 2 photos as I was to busy enjoying the food and forgot to take anymore.

For dinner that was myself, my sister, my mum and my dad. We started off with three entrees between the four of us which was garlic bread, risotto balls and zucchini flowers. Personally the garlic bread and risotto balls were my favourite however my sister loved  the zucchini flowers and is trying to find a way to replicate them at home. 

We then all moved on to main course. My Dad ordered Kangaroo, Mum had salmon, my sister had a steak and I had chicken schnitzel. Everyone seemed to enjoy there meal a lot. The chicken was full of tons of moisture it was so good, my mouth is watering as I'm writing this post. We also ordered four side dishes that we shared between us. We had broccoli, heritage carrots, garlic mash potatoes and sweet potato fries. All of which were amazing. Out of the sides the garlic mash was my favourite. 

We then moved on to dessert. At this point we weren't very hungry but because we had the voucher we each ordered a dessert. My sister had strawberry and cream with pistachio fairy floss (picture 1), Mum had ice cream with a shot of coffee and melted chocolate drizzled over the top, Dad had a pastry with nutella, jam and ice cream in the center of it and I had a classic warm double chocolate cake (picture 2). The chocolate cake was very rich and I wasn't able to finish it all (probably because of all the other food I had eaten beforehand).

The service at the restaurant was incredible, the staff were polite, and made sure we had everything we needed, they even asked on multiple occasions if we wanted anything else such as drinks or other small bits so we could spend the rest of the voucher which was really nice of them. And for anyone playing Pokemon GO, The Hylander is a poke-stop!

Overall my experience was 4/5 the food was delicious, the staff were very friendly and I would defiantly eat there again. 

For anyone wondering in total we had 
- 3 entrees
- 4 mains
- 4 sides
- 4 desserts
- 5 alcoholic beverages
- 1 lemonade
- 2 coffees

And our bill came to $238.40.

Recently I got back from holiday in Sydney and it was so much fun! I got to see so many iconic sights, you can go to my previous post and have a look at some of my pictures from my trip.  Whilst there I ate at a lot of really nice places, one of my favourites was Sweethearts Rooftop Bar. I went on a date here and it was beautiful, I loved the atmosphere and aesthetic. It was partly undercover with some open areas for dancing. Without sound too old, the music was a little loud to have a conversation at, however, we did go on a Saturday night so it may have been different in the middle of the week as it was more club-like the night I went.  Unfortunately, smoking was permitted on the rooftop bar as well, it was only in the open are parts, however, the rooftop is not huge so the smoke made its way over to where I was sitting pretty fast.   When looking at the bar online it said we needed to book, however when we arrived the bartender told us ...

As some of you know, as I seem to talk about it all the time, I have just spend a year in the USA working at Disney World. The exact dates of my being out of Australia are actually December 19 th 2017 to January 17 th 2019. And boy oh boy am I missing home. When this blog post goes live I will have been back in Australia exactly one day. So the list I am making now is everything I miss and am looking forward to seeing again when I get home. The first, and most important is my Cat, Tinker. I miss him so much and have been missing him since about June 2018. My cat and I are very close, he always sits or lays next to me when I am working on my laptop and will sleep on my bed. He is also just cute and fluffy and the more I type the more I miss him. I am also missing my friends. A lot. My Australia friends and I would regularly hang out and do things together, sometimes it would be eating out at a dessert bar or a buffet. Other times it would be going and having a BBQ on...
