Sunny's Revisited. 4.00/5.00

Went to Sunny’s for lunch on 29.01.06 and will have to upgrade their rating to a 4.00/5.00. It was a fabulous meal (no pictures unfortunately). We had a fried calamari (excellent, tender, not the tyre re-tread at most places, served with a piquant salasa), greek salad with feta (wonderful cheese, ask them to omit the cucumber), a seafood bouillabaisse (saffrony with a strong, but not overpowering, fish flavour and a generous serving of mussels, clams, prawn, fish and crab. Was served with bread and a interesting egg-based sauce (Hollandaise?) with saffron and herbs.), ham crepes (excellent, as always. Chose the cream sauce.), smoked salmon open faced sandwich (salmon was a tad salty but the capers and cream-cheese made it good to go.) served with the same fabulous potatoes and I had a Japanese fried chicken served with assorted greens in soy-sauce and sticky rice (was very good. And a wonderfully aged soy-sauce, which is rare to find.). Dessert was raspberry ice-cream, an almond praline ice-cream (I’d pay good money to buy it in take-away tubs), a frozen rum raisin chocolate fudge (potent. Lotsa rum. Great dessert too! Fudgy and chocolaty!) and a hazelnut meringue with chocolate (possibly the weakest dessert. It lacked character of taste and texture.) All in all, a great meal and outstanding value for money. I don’t know how he has kept standards this high over a 16-odd year period. Commendable!
