REVIEW
A peaceful lakeside setting, a decorous welcome; this wedding conference- restaurant destination emanates Old World charm. But it’s in the hushed, spacious dining room with clinking cutlery and low voices that you get the big reveal: a bold menu and extensive wine list showcase the region’s best in a modern way. Cowra pork belly with ‘nduja, parsnip, maple cabbage and snake beans offers a quartet of tender, crunchy, earthy and spicy qualities, while the Gippsland yearling Angus fillet with pea tendrils, caramelised onion and smoked potato is a melting moment and a tapioca and squid ink cracker atop chilli and coriander-accented soft-shell crab is as winsome as a race-day fascinator. The golden saffron cheesecake with poppy sablé and salted caramel is a cheerful finale. And all the while, earnest waitstaff flits about dispensing warm, seamless service.
