Tommy Ruff Fish Bar

So, it was Good Friday and we were starving and after a fish and chips type of meal. Tommy Ruff was where we headed to and boy was it good. Will have to try their traditional fish and chips next time. We had:

Seafood chowder with fish, prawns and mussels done Tommy's special way - it isn't your typical creamy seafood chowder. What we got is a light seafood broth with seafood pieces. Light and delicious.

The crab claw burger - Soft shell crab with slaw, coriander and special sauce. Crispy, juicy, meaty crab with a nice slaw and dressing. Reasonably priced and the side of chips was perfect.

Mr Burger

Mr burger is the closest burger joint to where we live and it is very good indeed. What started out as a food truck(it still operates) is very popular and they have added quite a few things to their menu recently including the burger reviewed below and milkshakes(which are quite good). So, we had:

Mr Hot - beef patty, cheese, onion, onion rings, chilli Mayo and jalapeños. The jalapeños give this burger a nice kick. Some places serve up jalapeños that are just too mild. Definitely no confusion here and suits its name perfectly. Had a double beef patty and the other ingredients go very well together. Generous, the beef was cooked to perfection, juicy and slightly pink. A must try and Mr Hot is a good alternative to Mr Meat which is another favourite of ours.
