After having to mortgage my apartment to pay for the beer earlier on in the week, we decided to head off to the gaggle of restaurants close by to The Westin on the waterfront.
We’d decided to start off with a couple of beers before moving onto getting something to eat. One beer became two, became half a dozen, and we just couldn’t be bothered moving from where we were. Luckily Degree does meals, so our fate was sealed.

It was a public holiday in Melbourne, and the weather wasn’t too bad, so had lunch with a friend down at Docklands in Melbourne.
Not having been to the restaurant area of Docklands before, we walked the length of the food strip and finally came to Melbourne Yacht Club Hotel. It wasn’t too busy (maybe this was an omen), and the menu looked OKish.

I’ve been to Wolfie’s a couple of times before, maybe even half a dozen, it’s not cheap, but the food is good and the views are to die for.
Wolfie’s is on the waterfront at West Circular Quay with views of the Harbour, Opera House and Harbour Bridge. A great place to bring out of towners for a meal.

In case you hadn’t quite worked it out yet, I’m a sucker for a good slab of dead cow, medium rare.
Earlier this week I turned the big “4 oh-no”, yep, I’m officially a dirty old man. To celebrate, or is that to commiserate, a mate who I’ve know for about 20 years, since Uni days in fact, decided that I needed a decent feed and it was decided that steak was the choice of the day, and The Meat and Wine Co down at Southbank was the place to get it.
