fits in right at home with the rest of the Williams Esplanade.\u00a0 The plastic deck chairs remind me of the Serasa Yacht Club that I went to as a kid.\u00a0 The menu, put together by Nick and Jason Rowbottom, uses local ingredients which are sourced and documented in surprising detail in their menus.\u00a0 Nu Nu has a versatile menu, its Modern Australian, caters for vegetarians and vegans, and incorporates both meat and seafood.\u00a0 There is a certain creativity to the dishes but they are better known for doing hearty, tasty dishes that champion freshness of ingredients.\u00a0 There&#8217;s not too much fuss about the presentation of the dishes.<\/p>\n<p>For breakfast there we had:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Coconut hotcakes with sweet banana, coconut sugar
