I have have had to travel from Cairns to have the delicious Sydney Rock Oysters. If you are a fan they are outstanding! Some Soft Shell Crab sliders were out of this world. While all this was going on my wife ( Vegetarian) had the Green Olive Hommuos. I tried it and was knocked over. Service-outstanding Food -outstanding. Well done Cru Bar
