i LOVE Thai food, and I LOVE Sydney’s Northern Beaches. So for me, the perfect afternoon is spent at The Green Pearl, eating myself silly, drinking a nice glass of wine and enjoying the afternoon sunshine that graces The Green Pearl. The food is AMAZING — I strongly recommend the duck, the pad thai, the pad see ew. faced with so many choices, my family decides to order a few to split. Good choice — I try and enjoy everything. The flavours are really fresh and obvious here — no dried coriander here, that’s for sure. Coming in at just over $ 100 for a family of five, it’s not too tough on the budget either. The view, though, is the main attraction — situated on Pittwater, we looked out directly onto Scotland Island and laughed at the folly of the kayakers who decided to exercise. Why would you exercise, we wonder, when life is so good from up here? The staff are friendly and quick to serve, the décor is sufficiently cheesy and«Thai», and the meals are TASTY — what’s there not to love, with a view like that?
