Out For Dinner!

Not so long ago we made a post about best places to shop for groceries in Sydney. However, after all the savings that we made, it is okay to sometimes treat yourself with a nice tasty meal somewhere outside your own kitchen and Sydney, being a rather multicultural country, has plenty of choice to help you with that. In today’s post, I will cover restaurants that will give you a tasty filling meal, without making your wallet a lot thinner. 
All these places are located in the city, since they are close to a place where I live. We will try to cover other places outside of CBD in the future.

Takumi. (3rd level Market City, Haymarket NSW 2000)
I, being a big fan of sushi, was always struggling with being able to get full without having a massive bill. So I was looking for an affordable place with nice tasting sushi. Takumi turned out to be exactly that kind of place. Overall Takumi has a massive amount of dishes to choose from and an affordable price of $2.50 per plate if you have a student card or parked in the market city parking lot. 
My recommendations among the dishes would be:



Grilled Scallops
Sashimi
 
Grilled Eel

 
 
 
 
 
 
 


BBQ King (8 Goulburn St, Haymarket NSW 2000)
BBQ king is a small Chinese restaurant in the City. A decent meal here would cost you about $13, which comes with rice, veggies and meat of your choice. They also include free soup and tea when you come in which makes it a nice addition to the food.
I ]would recommend to order:
Roasted Duck


Scruffy Murphy's Hotel (43-49 Goulburn St, Sydney NSW 2000)
This hotel has a bar on the first floor; however, we have no interest in it. What we want is the second floor, which has a nice bistro. I usually come here to satisfy my craving for steak. A nice 450g T-bone steak will set you back about $16, which comes with mashed potatoes\fries, salad\steamed veggies and a sauce of your choice. However, there are plenty of other dishes as well, starting from pies ending with pumpkin soup and fish and chips. 
Here I would recommend to order:
 
T-Bone Steak
