AQUA Pullman Sea Temple Resort

AQUA - Pullman Sea Temple

AQUA - Pullman Sea Temple is where Roy Weavers and Sarah Cullen interviewed Jim Wallace for the Port Douglas magazine article about the early days of Quicksilver. The finished article makes interesting reading and by coincidence our spin on Quicksilver's influence on Australian shipbuilding was included in the Port Douglas & Daintree Discovery Guide app in 2011.

Back to the AQUA Restaurant. Having not dined there previously we tried it out. It is a long way out of town and a long way from the Macrossan Street Restaurant Strip. It was not very busy. Part of the restaurant was set up for a wedding reception later in the day. The setting is stunning and we settled in ordering two battered Spanish Mackerel $28 each, one Bruschetta $12 and a bottle of Chardonnay $33 or $101 for lunch.

I knew that Jim was a great Fish and Chips man and i was interested as to why the magazine article interview was done at AQUA?

The fish and chips were excellent, the venue quiet, and I guess the magazine was paying. We loved it although the cumbersome Bruschetta needed some adjustments so that we could deal with it.

The Port Douglas magazine is out now and this blog was put together to promote some of the more interesting aspects of Port Douglas.

The Port Douglas & Daintree Discovery Guide app is available from the app stores.

Paddy's Irish Hotel - Macrossan Street

Fish and Chips Battered Mackerel, mushy peas, chips, salad & Tartare Sauce - $22 Salt & Pepper Calamari Lemon wedges - $18 Schooner Super Crisp $7.20, 18 Crimes Cabernet Sauvignon $8, Rothbury Sauvignon Blanc $28 Paddy's is one of our favourite lunch stops and has an extensive menu. What we particularly like is that, unlike most restaurants in Port Douglas, they have some wines under $30. Still not bad for a good lunch - $83.20 Brought to you by: Port Douglas Budget Dining .

Port Douglas Cheap Eats goes live..........

Cheap eats Port Douglas community website app goes live and we are calling on those cafes and restaurants that made the cut to enhance their listings to help pay for the app. All it takes is a $1 per week. A representative from Cheap Eats today remarks: " We do not get paid for making Port Douglas a good place for visitors to come to. Just one restaurant could make a big difference for just $1 per week ." See Cheap Eats Port Douglas: cheapeats.portdouglas.website .

Port Douglas & District Combined Clubs - The Tin Shed

Lunch at the Tin Shed With probably one of the best outlooks of any restaurant in Port Douglas the "Tin Shed" benefits from the new parklands at the waterfront created when the old buildings were demolished in 2012/3. 1 Jul 14. Meals were OK but lack the touches of a truly fine meal. Reasonably priced Chardonay at $23.50, light beer schooner at $4.60, Calamari with salad $14 and Beefburger & chips $15.50. Service is a bit better than visits last year. Photo: Marketing Daintree .
