Manly NSW 2095

Just wanted to draw to your attention the new menu and changes at Sugar Lounge - formerly Henry Afrikas - on the beachfront at Manly. I believe they've changed owners or management or something, whatever it is, they've really upped their game in terms of the food offering and general feel of the place, plus the $5 pizzas, beers and house spirits are back on fridays! As a backpacker turned temporary resident this is great news! Sam

Warriewood Beach

Costa D'oro

9999 5740

Watsons Bay

"Costa Dora has only just opened so we decided to check it out. We weren't expecting much beyond a pleasant meal. Our expectations were easily surpassed. The steak was the best I can remember. The service was friendly, attentive and prompt without being in your face. The bill came in at less than $100 - not bad given we had desert and coffee (but only one entree). The real winner is the food - exquisit. A very welcome addition to Warriewood Beach"
