Victoria Street Bistro

The Victoria Street Bistro (on Victoria Street) opened today - the old Maître d' and chef from 1ZB run the joint. What did I have? Beef Cheek - or is that cheeky beef?. The menu describe it is as "Slow Braised Beef Cheek with butter whipped potato mash, manuka smoked bacon, mushroom, a pickled pearl onion and jus" - and that is exactly what it is - tasy bacon and beef, on perfect mash (which, if I detect correctly, has truffle oil) and a perfect texture. Attention to detail was mostly there - even a rather snack-worthy valute - tomato and capsicum soup! Overall, very worthwhile 9/10.
