output: This review is really for the gym, although the pool is lovely too - I love the changing rooms round the side, and the glass roof. But - to the gym! I've just moved and needed to find somewhere to replace Leith Vic. After a brief foray to the Commonwealth Pool, where I was daunted by all the gigantic body-buildery types, i tried Warrender. And it's perfect. It's a really attractive gym, with everything I need. The cardio room looks out on the street (and lets me keep an eye on my bike locked out the front), then there's a machine and free weights area, and finally my favourite bit - a mats/ kettlebell/ suspension training area. That's in what was the Turkish steam room, so it's a cosy little spot with a lovely, complex arched ceiling to look up at. Get your trainers on and get over there - see you on the treadmills!

output: Maybe it was an off night when I went, but I felt it was a bad dining experience. And I say this fully loving Rooster's. We went for a friends b-day, his choice. He had gone before and him and his wife raved about it. Another friend and I were skeptical from the start, nothing on the menu online jumped out at us, options seemed limited and not exciting, but we went because it was not our b-day, not our choice. So when we got there they had put some confetti pieces on the table in honor of the b-day, thought that was nice. It was pretty dead in there on a Wednesday except for some private party that ended up taking away from our service. The decor was awful!!! My friend and I couldn't get over how busy/tacky it was. He said it was like Disney on crack or something along those lines. On to the meal. We started with a bottle of Sancerre, it was good. We had 2 servers at this point and it wasn't clear who was in charge of what. We then ordered some apps. I tried the fried oyster salad and there was two crab cakes ordered. My salad was the highlight of the whole meal. The fried oysters were great and the creamy balsamic dressing on the salad was very good. I tried a bite of the crab cake, it was fine but nothing to rave about. For entrees I had the halibut, 2 had beef cheeks, and one veal. We also got sides of lyonnaise potatoes and some vegetables. My halibut was a tad fishy, which I have never experienced with halibut before. Overall it was prepared well but I have had better. The veal was apparently great but I didn't try it. The boys who had the beef cheeks did not enjoy them, and both felt started to feel ill while still at the restaurant, to the point where alcohol was pushed aside and club soda was ordered for the unhappy tummy's! For dessert the birthday boy got a choice of something on the house, he picked the coconut cake and we also got the pistachio creme brulee and a cheese plate. Sweet desserts were fine, again nothing amazing. The cheese got dropped off w/o explanation of what they were, and I believe there were 5 different types. It came with long thing bread sticks that made no sense with the way the cheeses were cut, and its not like any of them were of the spreadable variety. We also had no plates to eat with as all had been cleared. I grabbed a passing server/runner/not sure, and asked him for plates for the table. He took one from a table behind us and gave it to me and ran off, wow that was helpful for the 4 of us. Then I got the attention of someone else for an explanation of what the cheeses were he rambled off some names in French we'd never heard of and took off again, still not knowing what we were going to eat. We were actually all laughing at this point because it was just a disaster. Jim Noble actually happened to be there, not cooking, so you'd think they would be working to impress him, but alas that was not the case. Also, when we ordered a 2nd bottle of wine they were out of what we had so he offered a similar Sancerre. And when he asked us if we enjoyed it and did we notice a big difference and I said I hadn't he actually made some sarcastic comment about me being lower class or something!! He laughed as it was meant to be a joke, but hey bud we aren't pals and you really aren't at liberty to talk to me like that. I could not wait to leave. So we left after paying waaay too much for such a below average meal and continued to laugh incredulously about what just took place. The boys were still suffering from those cheeks the next day and it was pretty much decided that this didn't warrant a 2nd visit, though I hear its since closed, so no need to worry about that anyway!

Tremendous selection of German dishes. All the sausages come from a particular manufacturer in Wisconsin that uses 100 year old methods of making them (according to the menu). I don't know if that's a good thing or not, but they taste terrific. The options for sides are as plentiful as the moan dishes and the hot bacon potato salad was awesome. Definitely recommend giving this a try.
