Out For Dinner

Last night we decided to head to Mooloolaba for our evening meal. We had seen a Thai restaurant there which seemed to be awfully busy with people everywhere. Once as we walked by we had a look at the menu and were impressed by the price of main courses being around $10 to $12. It was fairly laid back and worth a try one night.

Despite being late April, Mooloolaba is still a very popular spot for holiday makers and people wanting to swim. There are great BBQ facilities there as well as seating and playgrounds for the kids. This photo captures Mooloolaba beach at about 5 pm. People can sit and relax while others complete an after work jog or have a quick dip in the waves.

We enjoyed a walk along the beach and then back via the shops. This photo shows the alfresco side of Mooloolaba eateries with holiday apartment buildings there too. It can be a great place to sit quietly and watch the sights go by. There are also shops to peruse and make the occasional purchase. This time of year outside holiday time makes Mooloolaba easy going and not rushed.

After a drink at the Mooloolaba Surf Club we headed to the Thai Seasons restaurant. Laid back is probably too close a description. It is BYO anything. One family had a box of chips as one of the kids did not fancy Thai food. You got your own cutlery, glasses, serviettes and then ordered at the counter. The only time staff came near your table was to deliver the food. Our reserved table was outside and we shared this area with other patrons. This isn't my best photo I must add!

The food was quite OK and with a bill of about $23 for the meal for both of us we went home quite satisfied after enjoying a great night out.
