What an evening... I don't think I enjoyed such a wonderful time out with friends in a long time. Nice and relaxed atmosphere, with lovely service. Chefs that come out, bring your food and converse with the patrons. From the front door to the interior of the restaurant, it is a beautiful heritage building.
Food was delightful! My favorites ... the duck & pork sausage roll, beautifully crispy pastry with delicious meat. For mains, the pork tenderloin was juicy and just a very creative dish. Lastly dessert, there is no favorite they all were great on their own. Just try it and see :) .
I definitely can't wait to come back for Breakfast next time.
