Torsten and Tanja's Wedding

Our friends Torsten and Tanja recently wedded on the cliffs of South Head. Although the sun was a little indisposed that day, the ceremony was beautiful - even the bits in German that we couldn't understand!

After the ceremony, we were water taxied to Clonny's for the reception. This is a quaint waterside restaurant overlooking The Spit in Clontarf. The tables were decorated with green satin table runners, sand, pebbles, shells and scented candles and in keeping with the green and cream theme of the bride and groom.

Served alternately, these were the entrees:

White cut chicken with wasabi noodle salad

Spiced chicken flatbread with chili jam and yoghurt relish

Mains:

Roast sirloin of beef with gratin potato, beans and mushroom glaze

Pan seared barramundi with gratin potato and veggies

And dessert:

Panna cotta with summer berry salad and savioradi

Tiramisu with raspberry coulis

Overall the food was delicious. I was only a little disappointed with my tiramisu which tasted like the panna cotta base with an added layer of sponge and cocoa. This was remedied by second dessert - wedding cake! This was three tiered with chocolate mud on top, strawberry in the middle and lemon curd cake on the bottom, representing the three colours of the German flag.

Congratulations guys!
