Duck & Goose, a popular cafe in the heart of Randwick is now open for dinner. Thursday to Saturday nights they are serving up great shares and cocktails in a beautiful setting. We started our evening with a couple of cocktails and there are plenty of classics to choose from. We loved the Collins and the Elderflower.

Yeah, okay the juices are cold-pressed and pricey, but an Immune Kick ($9.50) with orange, carrot, ginger, garlic, parsley, honey and cayenne pepper, delivers the old-fashioned, nutrient-rich taste that juice had before we all bought electronic juicing gadgets. Enjoyed with a bowl of Coconut Bircher Muesli ($16) topped ...read more
