DISAPPEARING
ACT
//
Avoid
the
set
menu
(aud65pp)
at
Varnish
on
King
if
you
are
after
a
decent
meal.
Music
played
was
excessively
loud
and
we
had
to
shout
across
the
table
to
be
heard
even
when
the
table
was
less
than
1
metre
apart.
The
group
of
us
ordered
the
set
menu
for
six
(total
aud390)
and
still
left
super
hungry.
We
had
wanted
to
add
extras
and
relayed
this
to
our
server
as
there
were
seven
of
us
but
after
our
server
confidently
assured
us
in
saying
that
the
food
would
be
more
than
enough
to
feed
the
seven
of
us,
we
trusted
them
and
let
them
do
their
thing.
Therein
laid
our
misstep
for
the
night.
Rule
#1:
always
trust
yourself
instead.
Note
that
one
of
our
friends
has
peanut
allergy
and
we
informed
this
prior
to
the
dishes
being
served.

Essentially
there
were
only
two
protein
dishes
for
six.
As
our
server
cleared
off
our
dishes,
we
asked
if
there
were
more
food
coming.
When
informed
that
desserts
were
next,
we
expressed
our
disappointment
and
requested
our
server
to
inform
the
chef
that
we
were
still
hungry.
Desserts
came
out
right
after.
Six
serves
of
black
sin
cake
with
white
chocolate
and
orange
curd
(aud12
each).
It
was
bland
and
tasteless.
They
tried
to
make
up
for
our
disappointment
by
offering
an
additional
serve
of
cake
but
we
sent
it
back
since
the
majority
of
us
didn’t
like
the
cake
upon
the
first
bite.
We
then
asked
for
the
bill
and
were
stunned
to
see
that
the
additional
serve
of
cake
was
charged
eventhough
it
had
been
sent
back.
This
took
a
further
15
minutes
to
rectify.
Rule
#2:
Always
check
the
bill.
I
rarely
write
an
actual
negative
post
but
our
experience
last
night
definitely
warrants
it.
This
might
be
a
place
known
for
their
whiskey
and
bacon
but
maybe
consider
elsewhere
if
you
are
after
a
proper
dinner
feed.
