Rice Paper Scissors, Liverpool St CBD

In our office, one of the tasks that fall on the Graduate's lap is coming up with ideas on which restaurants to try during the week. The importance of this task cannot be underestimated, because a bad selection is considered a strike against the poor Graduate. Each Graduate in our team have had their moments of quiet desperation as they trawl endlessly on Zomato to research a restaurant that serves food meeting our taste and budget.

On this ocassion, G has recommended Rice Paper Scissors located at Liverpool St in the CBD. This is a small restaurant with a few tables and bar seating but the food that is churned out from the kitchen is big in flavour.

The restaurant offers a deal of 5 dishes for $59 between two persons. We ordered the lamb ribs, fried chicken wings, crispy barramundi salad, pork belly and soft shell crab baguette.

The stand out dish among the five was the lamb ribs. It was so deliciously tender and full of flavour that we wished there was a bottomless plate of it. The portions of each plate is not big, but I would say that it is just enough for two persons (think two lamb ribs per person, 1 baguette per person, 3 chicken wings per person etc). If you were starving, then you would probably have to order another couple of dishes.

So what does G get for making the right recommendation? Nothing, it just adds to the pressure of continuing with the winning streak...
