There's a lot to do in Salamanca on a Sunday, but I must say lots of it revolves around food.
The Salamanca market is perfect for crafts and foods on the run. The picturesque port is relaxing to sit by and enjoy. There are plenty of eateries if you love seafood around his port.
With the weather at its best - warm and sunny, you can't go past a seat at an outdoor restaurant.
On this day, we chose Maldini, an Italian restaurant amongst the heritage buildings and restaurants.
I decided on the eye fillet salad on the specials board ( rocket, pecorino cheese, cherry tomatoes, zucchini, onions & eye fillet in a pesto dressing).
My companion chose the braised beef cheeks. The beef cheeks were well cooked and fell apart came accompanied by cauliflower purée.
There are many restaurants to choose from at Salamanca depending on what cuisine you prefer and your budget.
When you walk in and look around you, feel like you're inside a ship. It has so much ship & sea paraphernalia; you just don't know where to look next.
A lot of the seafood is fresh from the Tasmanian waters, and it can be cooked, grilled, battered, crumbed or even cooked on a hot stone at your table. The seafood platter for 2 is quite good value at $116 and has a good selection of fish and seafood.
We chose the fresh Tasmanian oysters, which were superb and then followed it with grilled Salmon that accompanied by a salad and your choice of rice, fries or potatoes. The food was good, the ambience fun and if you'd like a little privacy, there is a cute two person table tucked into a small boat where you can have a private tete a tete.
Next post, more of Tassie.
