Seafood on Cullen

Back to blogging about food places in Darwin again. There's a custom domain now. Urbanspoon has become Zomato. So much has changed in Darwin. So much has changed in my own life too.

But Seafood on Cullen has been here forever and though there are new owners, aside from slight adjustments in the selection, everything here is largely the same as it always has been. And the sunset from Cullen Bay is as colourful as ever.

Location: 51 Marina Blvd, Larrakeyah NT 0820

Website: see Facebook page and Tripadvisor

Menu: buffet for ~$40 per person (adults) and $20 per person (children under 12)

Food:

Mains - seafood selection was the standard. Oysters, mussels and prawns. Not super fresh but not too bad.

Having roast duck at this buffet was definitely the highlight. This is a new item on the menu since the changeover of owners. Now all they need is pancakes, spring onions and Hoisin sauce for Peking duck...

Chilli crab! And some other plates of mixed goods. It's hard to make buffet food look appealing in photos.

Mains - dessert is the standard fruit and bulk-made cake. The chocolate fountain is different from other buffets though.

Other: choice of indoor or outdoor seating. The lack of interior decor (mismatch in furniture and carpet colours) kind of bothered me.

Rating: 3.5/5 as much as you can expect from a buffet. An edge above the others because I love roast duck :)
