How You Can Get The Best Experience In A Gold Coast Restaurant?

Posted by Backbone Bar on January 10th, 2020

When going to a Gold Coast Restaurant, the best way to ensure you will have the best experience while there is to avoid the peak hour rush between 6 to 8 pm. If you’re in a good restaurant, a place that prepares all its food as freshly as possible, then you must expect a little waiting. Some of the ways you can check to see if you’re in a good, quality restaurant:

  • The Bread

A very good indicator of the quality of a restaurant is the bread they serve when you first arrive. If the bread is in house, warm and fresh and the butter is soft and spreadable and possibly blended with other interesting ingredients such as herbs or Dijon then you can expect they take pride in their food and the rest of the meal. If the bread is disappointing you can expect the rest of the meal to be similar.

  • Check the Bathrooms before ordering

The way a restaurant maintains its bathrooms are a good indicator of their overall cleanliness. If they take pride in their bathrooms chances are they are equally concerned with the kitchen. But if they don’t bother, well a dirty kitchen can mean dirty food in a Gold Coast Restaurant

  • Avoid the Decoy Effect

The defect effect is about how they price their wine. They will have some at the right price some with about a 30 percent inflated price then some very expensive wines. The idea is that when you see the very high prices the medium priced wines don’t seem so expensive. The best way is to look for wines you like not their prices and buy accordingly

  • Beware of the second cheapest wine

This is another decoy thing: Most people don’t like to look like a cheapskate and this trick catches many. A wine list will have a house wine by the glass and a reasonable price then a second at a higher price followed by a more expensive one. The basic house wine will be quite drinkable, but the second very similar quality will be over priced and here they make a big profit. The 1st and 3rd are likely to provide the best value for dollar spent

  • Don’t go to a Busy Restaurant at Prime Time Hungry

Sounds strange, you go to a restaurant because you’re hungry right and people like to “save their appetite” for their dining pleasure, but if you last ate at midday then you may be waiting for 7 plus hours before eating so a drop in your blood sugar is likely which often increases a person’s irritability. To avoid this have a protein snack about an hour before you go

  • If You Want a Quiet, Intimate Meal for Two Book for Three People

Bookings are allocated table space based on a seating plan and the numbers of diners. Having a table for three avoids you being stuck in a corner. You can just tell them when you’re seated he the third member of your party could not come at the last minute.

You can get the best experience in a Gold Coast restaurant if you go there outside rush hour and don’t fall for the decoys like cheap and expensive wine
