    Really nice pasta dish, very creamy and full of flavour. I'm still not entirely sure why I ordered pasta in a Spanish restaurant, I will definitely have to do the all you can eat tapas next time. Restaurant is quite large with an upstairs section as well, menu can be a little pricey for the a la carte options. Service is friendly, and it seems to get busy on a Friday night

    The gorgeous beast that is the Hamburguesas

    Open wide, friends, cuz this Hamberguesas ain't going quietly into your mouth hole. I'm talking a thick chorizo & beef pattie, runny egg, pickles, confit garlic aioli, barbecue sauce, lettuce, tomato, caramelized onions, and, of course, bacon, all sandwiched (burgered?) between a toasted bun. During lunch time Mon-Fri you can get a few variations of this bad boy, but if you're not around The Nest on weekdays, you'll have to grab the fully loaded beast off their dinner menu on weekday evenings and lunch/dinner weekends. Seeing as Lola Cocina is pitched as a tapas restaurant, we didn't confine our experience to the mouth-watering burger and partook in some Patatas Bravas (tomato based) which had a tiny kick from what I'm pretty sure was paprika on the 'tatas and the gorgeously charred Portuguese chicken skewers with Piri Piri sauce. Based on those two dishes, we have resolved to come back for all you can eat tapas ($29 Mon-Thur) in the near future. Really happy to have discovered Lola Cocina.

    Stopped by to grab coffee and a few sweet items…read more Order & pay at the counter. This place sends mixed signals. There is stuff everywhere and the menu is different on special days. They have a Mexican night and then European menu for lunch & dinner. I liked the sound of the Acai Berry bowl so kept a mental note to stop by for that. They sell Addiction food truffles - I love these! Especially the Chocolate Orange & Coconut & Mint Chocolate. Good coffee too!

    It is a pity to give two stars as the taste and presentation of the breakfast was good…read more We were after an early breakfast in Lane Cove where we could sit down without being in one of their "pneumonia alley" cafes. This has an "outdoor area" at the entrance to one of the arcades but quite a large indoor seating area. We had to change our table three times as the air con was blasting air directly down on the centre tables. This was probably why all the tables were occupied on the periphery. The coffee was not very nice at all. The poor waitress all had a shocker and spilt it on delivery to the table....I am sorry she didn't spill the lot. It was luke warm, no froth and the beans tasted burnt (goodness knows how that happened as I don't think they roast them there). The french toast was good. The poached eggs were on sour dough with a really tough crust. No problems with the taste but the implements given to me to cut the crust were useless. The knife wouldn't have cut butter despite being serrated. I was either cutting off too large a piece (limiting the amount of cutting) or too small a piece running the risk of firing it across the table. The service was fine and the food was good but the coffee & experience was poor.

    Are you ready? I hope you're ready, because here it comes,…read moremy favourite single dish of the last year: *** Roti Paratha with Chilli Caramel Pork Belly & Kim Chi **** Combining Indian, Chinese and Korean aspects, this thing is so much greater than the sum of its parts I don't even know if I can get hyperbolic enough to tell you how world-shattering this was for me. My face almost melted off like at the end of Indiana Jones And The Raiders Of The Lost Ark. I think I was yodelling with pleasure while eating it. Sweet, chewy, sour, spicy, it just had everything. We also ordered the goat curry (which comes with a toasted baguette) which is one of my favourite dishes in the world but even that took a second place to the pork belly. Special mention also to the Singapore Chilli Soft Shell Crab.

    Yang & Co is the new restaurant from the people behind Yang's Food Truck (RIP)…read more It's a bit out of the way in Castlecrag but for food this good you gotta travel for it. The food is built to share with some classics from the food truck, and it's Asian fusion that's primarily Malaysian inspired. The food is pretty great, lots of stuff I haven't seen before and one thing I haven't seen yet in Australia since it's an American creation, General Tso's Chicken. Ordered the following: Duck & Cabbage Spring Rolls fried in Duck Fat: 4/5 General Tso's Popcorn Chicken: 3/5 Singapore Chilli Soft Shell Crab, Man Tao: 5/5 Roti Paratha Confit Chicken, Hainan Chilli: 4/5 Roti Paratha with Chilli Caramel Pork Belly & Kim Chi: 5/5 Stir Fried Pumpkin, Snow Peas, Tofu, Radish, Black Bean Sauce: 3/5 Tea Smoked Duck, Hoi Sin, Mustard Sauce, Cucumber, Shallots, Roti: 4/5 Yang's Fried Rice with House made Pastrami, Banana Prawns, Potato Chips: 4/5 The best dishes were the Singapore Chilli Soft Shell Crab with Man Tao and Roti Paratha with Chilli Caramel Pork Belly & Kim Chi...they are both soooooo good. I love the roti here, it's tasty and flaky and his a hint of sweetness. The Roti with confit chicken is basically like eating Hainan Chicken Rice but on roti, and the Tea Smoked Duck is like Peking Duck pancakes but with roti...both pretty delicious. General Tso's Chicken was pretty similar in taste but not quite there for me, but if you've never had it it's definitely worth checking out. Only gripe that knocks this place down is there was a bit of delay with some food coming out, the small plates came out quick but then a few other dishes had a long lull, but if you're not short on time it's no big deal. Will definitely come back.
