I'm going to try and provide a Simon Food Favourites style snapshot review of Mohr Fish, which I stumbled into on a recent Friday night, after drinks at the Beresford.
Mohr Fish is essentially a take away that has tables enabling you to eat in. Being located three paces away from the Shakespeare Hotel they are pretty relaxed about you popping next door to buy a drink and then enjoying it with your food. Essentially a trendy chippy, it's popular with Surry Hills residents.
Above you can see the prawn and fish dumplings which come served with bak choi and a soy based sauce (could have done with a touch more chilli). We followed up the dumplings with blue eye with a mango salsa and cod in a tomato and bean sauce.
Two friends had cautioned me that Mohr Fish is a good meal, nothing special and over priced. I concur.
hehe i didn't realise i had a snapshot style but that's cool. i really enjoyed their fish and prawn dumplings but i do concur that it can be quite pricey if you eat in. it's a lot more reasonably priced for take away http://simonfoodfavourites.blogspot.com/2009/12/mohr-fish-prawns-and-fish-dumplings.html but then you have to find somewhere to eat it. i'm always looking for a good fish and chip place. i wonder if The Battery on Bourke St is open yet in St Margarets Square and if any good? Shakespeare Hotel is a lot more affordable with their $10 meals http://simonfoodfavourites.blogspot.com/2010/05/shakespeare-hotel-home-of-no-condition.html :-)
ReplyDeleteI think you have a punchy snapshot style, but I like it. If someone from outside of the food bloggig world arrives at one of our sites they don't want to read War and Peace.
ReplyDeleteI just checke The Battery's website and they aren't open until mid-July.
Have you been to Mongers in either Manly or Bondi? I've heard of nothing but good reviews.
