Ollie’s Kitchen: Homebaked Polish Antipodean

If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.
~  J.R.R. Tolkien - amazing when you Reread Tolkien what quote you find and he sends you on culinary journey ;-) memories of mamka’s Kitchen flash back ...

Breakfast at Polish Antipodean Lion and Buffalo

Anna  and her husband opened The Lion and the
Buffalo in August 2015 - naming it after their respective
 star signs, Leo and Taurus ...

Sometimes expensive cuisine is just bad, and it’s strange when no one else in the dining room seems to notice...

The actor Rowan Atkinson, in his famous “Steak Tartare” skit, contorts his face a thousand different ways while choking down a grayish patty of raw meat. Instead of sending it back, however, he hides the remnants in a small tin of salt, in a woman’s pocketbook, and down the pants of a tableside violinist. Everyone else in the restaurant is oblivious.


Highlight of the day was the divine Dinner at The Ollie’s Kitchen ... surely this spot, a stone throw away, from the Coogee Beach is a top secret when it comes to discovering soul food.
I rarely enjoy meals as much, unless Dial, Mal or Lidka are behind the stove. ..

Truly Ollie’s serve best comfort food, definition of healthy & hearty meals in any Slavic or other languages comes to mind.


This a litle unassuming Kitchen. When you go in, you'll see the menu on the chalk board. Beef Stroganoff, Variety of lamb and chicken. Then a marvelous assortment of sides, including greens, mashed potatoes, broccoli, slaw, and much more. 

They fix everything to order, so it came out piping hot. Ask them for their "spicy or chillie” to drizzle over your meal. It is wonderful.


This homebaked treasure deserves to be shared by one and all who love fresh food and a comfortable place to eat live and praise the joy give to our tastebuds...

 

Roasts, stews, brisket, veggies, mash. Reasonable price for a generous bowl that even fills 190 cm tall frame struggle to finish a serving. Some of their dishes seem to be sold out by 7:30pm.

The most exciting meal of Julia Child’s life, by her own account, was a 1948 lunch of Dover sole meuniere. Served at a small auberge in Normandy, the fish came in a “sputtering” butter sauce, while the delicate flesh exhibited a “light but distinct taste of the ocean,” she wrote. Nearly 75 years later, sole remains a staple of European and stateside fine dining, where it’s prepared in a way that suggests not much has changed since the postwar era. Wait captains normally debone the fish tableside, pair it with a restrained sauce, and sometimes toss in a few capers.
