We enjoyed a delicious meal at Ricky's. We were so full from our entree and main that we sadly couldn't fit in dessert. Dish in the photo was my main - Whole roasted Coral Coast baby barramundi, green goddess, braised Maravista farm purple onions. The two cocktails I had (pictured) were the sunset martini and the winter sunshine. I loved the sunset (with the cherry)
The Cured kingfish, burnt orange, yuzu & white soy, radishwas to die for! What a great dish to start off with! My partner also enjoyed the Honey glazed beef short rib, parsnip & macadamia skordalia, mustard pickled kohlrabi, horseradish
