Default Your favorite gold coast restaurants?

OK, we have been here a while now and there are literally hundreds of dining out options.

Rather than try each one, we thought it would be helpful if people had enjoyed a meal somewhere they could post it on this thread for the benefit of us all - and yes, we know there are no decent curry houses but if you've found one feel free to list it

We had a nice lunchtime meal at gordonis (sp?) at paradise point...

Thought panchos at mudgeeraba was ok for the price (cheap, but not great food)

Now over to you lot!!

Cav's Steakhouse in Labrador and Ashmore Seafood & Steak (in Ashmore funny enough) are our chosen ...

Or if you simply want a decent pie or sandwich, the bakers across the road from Aussie Fair in Nerang St ...

(Hi Sam by the way, sorry we missed the piss up ... )

Yeah was looking forward to it, but with Nic being out of work for over 2 months we're back on the floor and just couldn't afford it ...

She started new job today so hopefully when the next one comes round we'll be right ...
