It feels a little like you're eating on a boat - with chrome railings and huge windows looking over the magnificent Blue Mountains. The Avalon is an institution and you'd be well-advised to book. The menu hasn't changed in years (who knew eggplant could taste so good), the vibe is eclectic, artsy. The furniture is a mixture of different antique styles, the staff are cool but friendly and the cost is tres reasonable.

There wasn't much of a crowd at lunch but staff were setting out all the reserved tables for the night and it looked like basically every table had been reserved! Pretty comprehensive drinks list and although the food is fairly simple it comes out fast, is fresh, and reasonably priced if you're sharing between a few people. I'd never tried a cheeseburger spring roll but they're basically all the ingredients of a cheeseburger in a deep fried roll - yum! Between this place and Empty Lane up the road the hills are starting to get some decent places to have a drink at.

Uncle Kurt's is a tiny one room cocktail dive bar in a back alley under a multistorey carpark just across from the old Parramatta Mall not far from the old Roxy. They've gone with a New York theme with heavily graffitied walls, hip hop beats & deli style sandwiches, meats & jaffles. The cocktail list is split into 3 sections of classics, modern & creamy all coming in a shade under $20 a pop created by genuine experienced mixologists. If cocktails aren't your go they also have a mixture of craft beers, a variety of wine & of course straight up spirits. Staff are all friendly, knowledgeable & happy to help.

We had goat curry and jerk (?) chicken with rice. The goat curry was very good and my dining buddy went back for seconds. Not a cheap meal at $15 but still a tasty one. We have been introduced to these bars through Dramnation whiskey tastings. This occasion was rum tasting and the bar created a few cocktails to suit. There is an outside area but as we approach winter, it would be too cold out there without some heating. The bar is small with concrete floors so it can get very loud too. It is within a stone's throw (if you have a good arm) to the Flywheel bar and is surrounded with mainly Indian restaurants. Plenty of parking.
