Tasting plate of Burlesque
Everytime I visit The Victoria Room I'm in awe of the lovely decor and lighting in this high ceiling bar and restaurant. If you visit on Sundays you'll be treated to Performance Carnival from 6 pm which includes complimentary entertainment by an eclectic mix of local artists and musicians as they showcase their unique talents. You can book a table in the restaurant area or sit and stand around near the bar area and get closer to the action. Tonight patrons were treated to very talented burlesque performers including a male pole dancer with Christmas fairy lights wrapped around him.
The Cheese plate ($29) comes with three cheeses of the day and a range of breads and crackers. Perhaps a bit pricey but the cheese is good quality. For a more substantial offering the Tasting Plate Hot ($26) comes with grilled chorizo, spicy chicken skewers, prawn and chickpea fritter, Argentinean calamari and pan fried haloumi. The haloumi is one of my favourites on the plate along with the tasty calamari.

SNAPSHOT REVIEW:
PROS: Free entertainment on Sundays, Beautiful decor and setting
CONS: Gets very crowded and sometimes hard to see depending where you stand or sit, Some seating in the restaurant is quite low and uncomfortable
MUST TRY: Checking out other Sunday nights
