There haven't been that
much in the way of opportunities to go out and have a bite to eat
around here recently. I had felt that I could start comparing Chinese
takeaways for their Singapore Noodles (seeing I had sampled a couple
of favourite places recently) but last night I had a chance to do one
that I've always wanted to do.
Yesterday I found myself once again at the Central Coast Stadium for a match, right on the edge of the Brisbane Water. It's well over 250 visits to the stadium watching three football codes there since 2000 and I never get tired of the view. Unlike the previous post, which was a rather wet day for the opening matches of the 2024-25 A-League season, here I was at what was going to be the last home match of the Mariners' Champions League Elite 2024-25 campaign against the ten time Malaysian Super League champions Johor Drul Ta'zim. It was a reasonable night weatherwise, a little balmy but otherwise fine.

One cheeseburger a la mode in Bay 27. Carefully balanced on my knee for the shot. |
Anyway, I can take or leave the stadium burger and chips. I'd suggest eating at the club first before attending a match but seeing it gets quite busy over there before the game you'd had to get there at least an hour before the gates open. After the game you really are taking your chances.

Like I said, never get tired of the view. :) |
