Green Mango Catering – Regents Park NSW Restaurant Review

Not a restaurant, but a catering service that I had the pleasure of eating food from at a recent course.

Being so sick and tired of the same sandwiches, rolls, and occasional pizza served at educational events by the local hegemon, it was nice to see something that deviated away from the standard fare. We had Vietnamese food options both days, though I only managed to capture images of this delicious shaking beef with tomato rice, and a fairly good soft shell crab bao.

It was really just like eating a meal that I would want to eat at a restaurant, rather than having to subsist on something (ham and cheese and salad rolls) that I’d never order for myself.

Though I didn’t pay directly for the meal, it was included in the price of the course. They’ve really set a high standard for catering and I’d not bne sad if future educational events and conferences that I happen to be at could hire them as well.

Kibuna – Mascot NSW Japanese Restaurant Review

Look. This is a difficult one. I’ve been to Kibuna numerous times since I’ve moved to the area. Some of their food hit well, some of them miss.

I’m a stan for their Okayama crumbed oyster. (not pictured). It is a must get.

Their soft shell crab roll is only ok.

The spicy teriyaki chicken don got me through a night shift once, it was the only thing to live for at the time, but it was not perfect.

I once had ox tongue that I thought was ox tail (what a surprise).

The swordfish collar was a daily special and a bit fishy for me.

Their ramen (not pictured) is a bit forgettable. I’ve had their pork negi chashu ramen, chicken yokozuna ramen, and their pork spicy tantan ramen and none really wowed me.

Overall a good place and I will be eating here again, hopefully eating in rather taking away. Skip the gyoza.

4/5
