I said "Let's meet at the Bull and Bush Hotel!" What a pleasant surprise. The front of the hotel is glassed in which is a a great bistro offering a good range of reasonably, priced, large meals. The hotel was quite busy but we found a table for 7 and ordered our meals while the beer started flowing...then the wine. Bottles of house wine ranged from $20 -$25, and the blend was smooth and accompanied the meal very well. Then we had drinks in the courtyard after the meal. An excellent DJ was playing a good selection of hard rock music. The attire was tee shirts and shorts..and you had to be holding a schooner. Anyway what a lively place. Through to the back of the hotel a live band was playing and this was the third band that night. This is definitely a meeting place for the future.

Anyway I discovered this pub simply by sitting on a bus as I was heading back into the heart of Paramatta, and since I hadn't appeared on my list I felt that maybe I should swing back here and check it out. Well, it turns out that there isn't all that much here. It's basically your standard suburban pub with an okay beer garden that is usually full of smokers. Doubt I'll come back.

There is a courtyard with two levels of seating and at least two different rooms inside. As others have said, they do seem to cater to smokers, but we were able to find a spot that was pretty much smoke free in the courtyard. It was quite busy as we arrive about 5:30 and there were a lot of locals that appeared to have just gotten off work and were enjoying drinks. It is near/in the CBD close to the train station. They have copper beer tanks which are supposed to be filled with fresh Carlton Draught beer directly from the brewery. I tried it, and it didn't seem to maker the beer any better. Maybe it does taste different, but I could not tell. They did have a good beer selection overall. What seems to be somewhat typical in the area, we ordered at the bar, and were give a buzzer to let us know when our food was ready. We then went and picked it up from the counter along with utensils. We had the Crispy Skin Pork Belly and the Crab ravioli Both were very tasty and exceeded our expectations. The only reason They get 4 instead of 5 stars is the smoking and that we didn't really finds a designated non-smoking area. I'd go there again.

The Winston I was…read morelucky enough to attend a 'Cocktail Masterclass', held at the Winston Hills. Not being from the area, and given the night involved alcohol, availed myself of public transport options and caught the bus from Wynyard. An easy 1 hour trip, accompanied by reading a book made it quite pleasant and I was dropped right at the doorstep. The Winston Hills is a large bistro style pub and has indoor (with wood fires) and 'alfresco' (yet covered) seating area, a sports bar and pokies lounge, it would suit a lot of guests. We participated in the class in the alfresco section. As I arrived, tables were already set up ready for the class with ingredients, alcohol already measured, shakers and accompaniments. Certainly looked classy to start! Hosted by Michael Nouri, known as a 'mixologist', he had great knowledge and passion of all things cocktails. Instructed that there is no right and wrong way of making cocktails, as you can easily replace one spirit with another to make an entirely different drink. The key is having versatile ingredients. Gone are the days where I used to buy passion pop, a cheap version of Malibu (bombora?), home brand pineapple juice and mix up a cocktail (or "punch") in a bucket in my college dorm. Now, I am older, have a full time job and a lot more knowledge I am prepared to have some cocktails at home that actually taste good! As we arrived, we were met with a cocktail on arrival: a 'Tom Collins" - a simple style drink that can use any base spirits. It was modelled on the 2-1-1 method (sour, sweet, soda). This was made with gin, lemon juice, sugar syrup and soda. This particular one used a Spanish gun and served in a highball glass. Delicious and refreshing. This gave us a good idea of what ours were meant to be like. We were then taught that cocktails could be "built, shaken or stirred". Despite my years of drinking at college, I had only heard of stirred, and I am sure that was from James Bond. Thus, the night was based around this concept, learning to make these types. With 4 people in a group, the idea was to make 4 cocktails (make one each and share with the group). I began as the first cab of the rank, making the easiest one: an "El Diablo" - tequila, lime juice, crème de Cassis, ginger beer in a highball glass, filled with ice and garnished with a lime wedge. This was extremely easy, basically pouring the pre measured items in the glass. No shaking needed - it is an easy one to make at home. Followed up by a coconut and ginger daiquiri - daiquiris are pretty standard drinks, but made with coconut water and faiernum syrup was extremely good and almost felt healthy! This one you just add to the shaker with a bit of ice and off you go. One of my all time favourite drinks is the espresso martini and I learnt something this time, add a touch of salt and coconut flakes to garnish and makes for a great version! Finishing off the night was the men's favourite drink; the old fashioned - bourbon, simple syrup, bitters, over ice and stirred with an orange twist. What a great opportunity to learn about how to construct some favourites and some inventions on the classics. It was well organized and taught effectively with a fun AND funny host. We also got two gourmet pizzas to share between the 4 people and help soak up the alcohol consumed. At $30 a person, it was extremely good value and I thoroughly recommend it. The courtesy bus will even drop you home if you live nearby, or in my case: the bus stop. How cool is that.

Last time I went I became a member, so not too sure what I'll gain, but I noticed there is a 2 for 1 deal on Mussel Pots on Mondays, exclusively for members. On Tuesday night there is a Trivia comp in the Sports Bar where newcomers are made to feel very welcome. It's a winner.
