I've only been to The Chophouse once before to celebrate Mummy's birthday earlier this year. It left such an impression on me and I looked forward to dining there again.
Ben once commented that The Chophouse made the nicest Sangria he's ever had. It was DEFINITELY really good! So when we ordered drinks while waiting for our table, I was disappointed that they no longer served Sangria. :(
The Chophouse's interior is designed to look exactly like a chophouse with high beamed ceilings and country style collectibles.

Little Alssa & Ben
Chilli Poppers - Oh-so-yummy!!
We ordered Chilli Poppers to appease our growling bellies while waiting for a table and we were so amazed at how wonderful Ricotta Cheese Stuffed Green Banana Chillies dipped in a Special Chophouse Ghost Chilli Jam tasted that we just had to have another round!
Really fresh Natural Oysters
Grain-Fed Steak
Ben's order was so succulent! It is definitely one of the best piece of beef I've ever had.
Dry-aged and on the bone.
Definitely had my regrets with this choice... It was surrounded with sinews and really, all the was edible was only the inner circle of steak. Disappointed :(
Lamb Cutlets
Just as tender as the grain-fed steak. Mummy definitely loved it.
Alssa's kid's meal of Lamb Chop, Beans and Mash.
There's mash and then there's mash. Think Jamie Oliver or Gordon Ramsey style mash. Best mash I've ever had :)
Shoestring Fries & Green Beans
Sides are $8 each.
Crème Brûlée
What makes a good Crème Brûlée?
It's not only the rich custard base that makes it good but the Chef's skill in topping it with a contrasting layer of hard caramel. Most Chefs have failed but not at The Chophouse. The caramel atop is not only nice and thick but also coloured perfectly without burning the sugar.
A Trio of Ice Cream.
It was good but I was too distracted by my Crème Brûlée :) Definitely creamy and definitely tastes homemade.
Chocolate Block with Honeycomb
Signature Chophouse chocolate!
Just how good is the food here?
Even fussypot Alssa has cleaned her plate! 'nuff said!

Facebook
Born in Singapore and having moved to Sydney, Australia in 2002, I started blogging back in 2003. It was more of an online day-to-day journal for me; some where I could pen my thoughts and mark the milestones in my life.
This was of course, before Facebook was popular.
I find that while reading my friends' Newsfeeds is fun, it does not replace the properly written word and thus, after constant urging from my mum, I have decided to start blogging again.
Join me and see the beauty around us through my eyes and you'll see the most mundane with new interest!
Why the name "Ambrosia and Nectar"?
In ancient Greek mythology, ambrosia is sometimes the food or drink of the Greek gods (or demigods), often depicted as conferring ageless immortality upon whomever consumed it. It was brought to the gods in Olympus by doves, so it may have been thought of in the Homeric tradition as a kind of divine exhalation of the Earth.
Ambrosia is very closely related to the gods' other form of sustenance, nectar.
The consumption of ambrosia was typically reserved for divine beings. Upon his assumption into immortality on Olympus, Heracles is given ambrosia by Athena, while the hero Tydeus is denied the same thing when the goddess discovers him eating human brains. In one version of the myth of Tantalus, part of Tantalus' crime is that after tasting ambrosia himself, he attempts to steal some away to give to other mortals. Those who consume ambrosia typically had not blood in their veins, but ichor. - Taken from Wiki.
