The Exchange Restaurant @Royal Exchange Hotel, Broken Hill

0 Comments
We're towards the end of our six weeks in Broken Hill, and we've started to develop a routine where we celebrate the end of a week with a fancy dinner.

This week's fancy dinner takes us to The Exchange Restaurant, located in the Royal Exchange Hotel. We've rode past it countless times on our push bikes on our way to Argent Street (the city centre) so we're a little surprised when the interior is much more fancier than what it seems from the exterior!


It's easily the fanciest restaurant we've been to so far in Broken Hill, with dim lighting, candle lights, a pianist and some cozy couches by a warm fireplace if that's your preferred method of dining. We stick with the table and chairs, though we do spend some time lounging in front of the fireplace after dinner- it's awfully comfortable, so try not to fall asleep!

Beef and Bean Enchiladas

1 Comments

I'm not usually into making 'dinner kits' because it means that there's less room for creativity when cooking, but I was quite excited when I received the Mission Burrito Kit in my box of Mission products a couple of months ago since burritos are something I don't make very often at home.

But of course I didn't want to make them as per the instructions on the box (that would be boring!) so I made them into enchiladas by covering them in sauce and cheese.

Temptations Cafe and Dessert Bar (2), Broken Hill

1 Comments

Continuing on with my overdue Broken Hill posts is another one on Temptations Cafe which seems to be the only one where we've managed to say that we'll come back and have actually done so on numerous occasions is Temptations. A total of 4 times actually!

We can't help it- the opening hours are so much more convenient than every other place, and their dessert selection is, well, tempting.

Kale and Chickpea Salad with Spicy Peanut Dressing

0 Comments

Another warm week, another salad recipe!

To add a little variety to my weekday lunches, I bought a rather large bunch of kale so ended up making a variety of kale salads for the week. My favourite was this kale and chickpea salad with a spicy peanut dressing I'd come across on pinterest which worked surprisingly well. The dressing is nice and creamy and also very very tasty (once you read the ingredients list you'll see why).
