LOCAL RESTAURANTS
LA SCALA
A restaurant is the perfect balance between yourself, your kitchen, and
your guests, all combining to create a magical whole. Our restaurant aims
to satisfy a myriad of emotions and pleasures while at the same time
being rigorous, full of character, peaceful, charming and courteous.
While keeping the principles which tradition has taught us firmly in mind,
we also aim to move with the times. As alimentary and nutritional needs
change, so it is the responsibility of those who cook and receive guests
to keep apace with this constant evolution.
We aren’t sure if we’ve achieved our goal; we still have the sensation of
being on a long journey of discovery with an ever-longer road ahead of us.
This is probably largely due to the fact that our work allows us to
constantly encounter diverse aspects of the world and the people we
share it with.

BLU GINGER
Opened in early 2009, Blu Ginger serves quality North Indian food in
the heart of the CBD. This restaurant certainly has a big city feel, with a
well appointed 180 seat dining room enhanced by polished floors, dark
timber furnishings and towering polished concrete frames that attract the
eye upwards and give a feeling of openness. From the kitchen, expect to
find a range of contemporary yet authentic dishes that confirm this is no
mum-and-dad ethnic diner. Starters may be Tandoori quail or marinated
ling fillets and our classic curries are refined and flavoursome and are
given a heat rating on the menu.
Ever popular Rogan Josh has a rich gravy and comes with fresh tomatoes
and coriander, a Sagwala is made with lamb, beef or chicken and cooked
with a spinach puree and cream. Seafood is represented by wok tossed
prawns marinated in ginger and garlic; or a hot and spicy Sri Lankan fish
curry.
A range of specials feature on the blackboard and change weekly. Desserts are
relatively simple and may be ice cream and lychees, or traditional favourites
like Gulab Jamun or Pistachio Kulfi. A concise yet good wine list offers
some well known Australian labels, and a number of beers are available
by the bottle including a couple of Indian labels perfect for spicy food.
