Hurricane’s Grill (Sydney)








Came to Hurricane by recommendations from a few individuals so u can say I went with certain expectations. Made reservations for 2 at the outlet opposite Circular Quay station. 












Was greeted by friendly staff and the server of our table was really polite and helpful as well. Spoilt for choice and didn’t know what to order cuz it felt like we wanted so many items on the menu. But given that it was our first night here, decided to just order a steak each to try, as well as their fried calamari to start. 





Fried calamari was really good! Loved the aioli and the texture of the squid. Lightly dusted crumbs and well seasoned, unlike the typical thick batter where u can’t taste much of the squid. Loved this! 


Milk shake!




The milk shake was good in my view! Texture was not as thick but the milk and chocolate mix was tasty!

After long consideration, I went for the Rump steak while bunny went for the New York strip. We ordered both steaks medium-rare but both came overdone. Requested for a change and the helpful server sent for their manager to have a look. Unfortunately the manager wasn’t as helpful as the rest of his staff. Was insistent that his steaks are done just medium-rare as requested, but would offer a change if we really want to. Of course, we want to. Clearly overdone but still trying to snake his way out of it. Tsk tsk. 




The re-done rump...



Yet the potato was redone too and was kinda dry after all that reheating.


Anyway, always felt that the Rump was a very tasty part of the beef due to the Rump steak at Brazilian Churasco at Bukit Timah. Haha. Turns out it was a tad dryer than the usual steaks, even after they got the doneness right. 

Bunny didn’t really enjoy her steak either. Felt the texture of the beef a little too grainy or something. But we decided to give hurricane a second try at the outlet bunny first tried them at before we conclude. Hahaha. Hopefully it doesn’t disappoint!
