Paddington Inn, Paddington
We had a quick bite to eat at Paddington Inn late one Monday evening. Inside it's rather hip with a modern chocolate brown colour scheme, bar stools, tables and predictably elusive plush booths.
The bistro area out the back features an open kitchen, enabling a bit of head chef plate-up action. We were so hungry though, that all this enabled was exaggerated drooling as we watched in anticipation.
Chargrilled sirloin steak with caramelised onion and red wine jus with a mixed leaf salad $20.00
Barramundi fillet on crisp polenta with roma tomatoes and balsamic vinaigrette $18.00
I had the steak which was fair, I suppose. It probably could have done with a bit more resting and was a little more medium than medium-rare.
The barramundi tasted quite good, although the portion was rather small.
Still the place was packed and is obviously popular with locals. I wouldn't make a trek here specifically for the food, but the buzz here is pleasant enough.

Whoa, highway robbery. Looks like it should have been a $5 steak.
A little too char-grilled for my liking. The jig was up when they did not serve chips with the meal.
Barra looks delicious but I think I could have eaten the fish all in one bite.
It's only redemption is if you had washed this meal down with a $4 schewy.
