The Running Man

Hurricanes

Tonight, because we had the car we went to Bondi to try out this place that was highly recommended by Sydney friends...Hurricanes Bar & Grill! This place is famous for its...Ribs!!! And judging by the crowd and the super long waiting list (note: need to book in advance), and the number of people eating ribs there...it seems to be well founded.


Now because we didn't book and we were hungry...we were told we had to wait an hr for a table to be ready. Hurricanes is above (left), we decided to go out and eat something small first while waiting. Just a couple of stores down we discovered...Hurricanes takeaway (above right)! That meant that we could just order our ribs and get back to Pyrmont, rather than wait an hr (thwaiting time for our order was 20 mins..bonus!). So we just ordered it, it was cheaper by $6 which is how much extra you actually pay for the 'atmosphere' to sit down in the bar (noticed lots of pretty Asian :P too...could also be part of the price :P haha..then its worth it).

So while waiting for our ribs...we decided to go to this famous place (see prev posts) in Bondi for some take-away desert..

Unfortunately they ran out of the Chocolate Hazelnut Strudel :( so we had to settle for some chocolate cake (ok).

Finally our order is ready...

And what was the end result when we got home?...

Pretty huge amount of ribs (the baked potatoe was quite good too :P a 'healthier' alternative to chips :P)

Verdict: Delicious...the recommendations are true. A bit burnt though...adds some charcoal flavour :)
