Pinbone, Woolahra (7 June 2015) - Revisit
Monday, June 08, 2015Once again, Pinbone delivers a top quartile winter feed. Initial review 9/10. Hence we return, even hungrier.
Today's two dishes - breakfast rice (left) and brown rice congee (right) |
A 30km run in the adjacent Centennial Park was not marathon preparation. This was pre-brunch training. Proof below.
Sunday long-run per the Tom Tom Sports Watch |
Malted brown rice congee with mushroom, pumpkin and a poached egg - $18 |
This really is a go-to fine-dining winter choice. Not quite a 10/10, but close.
Dish two is another winter special; brown rice but in a completely different setting.
Breakfast rice with vanilla, almonds and poached pear - $14 |
Garnish of toasted flaked almonds and poached pear |
Side shot of the Breakfast Rice |
Skim flat white - $4.00 |

After that first spoonful, the missus and I closed our eyes and tilted the head back. Similar to intoxication, albeit without the hangover.
Overall, the 1 hour sit-down cost $32 (ex-coffee) but the ensuing happiness was far in excess. The proof is below.
Pinbone Sunday brunch is a must. Also try some pre-meal exercise; food becomes 20% tastier.

Positive review, thus OK to show my face |

Have been wanting to try this place for awhile, looks good! I have loved reading your blog after your wife suggested you start. Without a doubt I envy the fact that you do exercise before brunch - I can't seem to get out of bed!
ReplyDeleteHey Joy, wow someone reads my blog aside from myself! Pinbone is amazing - for you maybe try creamed corn fregola or the bacon, maple, pumpkin tart and let me know!
DeleteAlso desperate to rebuild my wish list. Struggling for new places...
