Captains Restaurant

300g of beef sirloin for $36. Chose the anchovy butter which was way too salty. The steak itself was stellar. Very well seasoned to bring out the flavours and cooked to perfection. Now, if only I had gotten the ribeye instead of the leaner sirloin cut...

Herb crusted lamb with Rosemary jus. Very nicely done but the service is quite lacklustre. I would much prefer the next door Chico's which has a bigger space and friendlier staff although the food here is slightly better.

Costs: $39.95++ nzd

Review: I've never had many lamb dishes in my life. Simply because quality Lamb meat dishes in SG or there are just too expensive. Well New Zealand is a different ball game altogether. After you visit them, you get to eat them in a posh setting at a very reasonable price. This lamb rack is succulent, well seasoned with a crusted finish. Best thing is, you can't taste any sour lamb taste that usually accompany local Coffeeshop lamb steaks. My tsstebuds were sprouting rainbows with each bite. It's not cheap yet it tastes really good. Now I'm so confused. Either way. Drop by if you are in Queenstown!
