PSA: One Central Coast club has been named as one of the best venues in the state but it comes with a warning – you will be drooling by the time you’ve finished reading this.
The Central Coast’s very own The Ary Toukley has won three awards in the ClubsNSW Perfect Plate Awards, crowning them amongst the best in the region and NSW.
The club took home the gong for the Best Medium Club in the state and the Central Coast Regional Award for their drool-worthy Queensland King Prawn Ravioli.

The team at the Toukley club also took home the award for the Best Dessert, bringing it home strong with their Belgium Chocolate Fondant.
This delicious dish features Belgium chocolate fondant with crème anglaise, a dollop of vanilla ice cream topped off with vanilla fairy floss from you guessed it – ZIVA Eats & Pizza.

The ClubsNSW Perfect Plate awards were judged by celebrity chefs Matt Moran and Courtney Roulston of MasterChef Australia fame, who visited 55 clubs across NSW to try the offerings for themselves before over 84,00 dishes were purchased and voted upon by diners at local clubs.
Now we’re not saying he predicted the future, but when speaking to our very own Gina & Matty earlier in the year, celebrity chef Matt Moran only had glowing things to say about The Ary Toukley.
