You can tell that Craig Macindoe is passionate about what he does. And it shows. The food was amazing on my visit. The Slow Roast Prime Rib of Organic “Red Poll” with Kipfler Pots and Horseradish Cream was a good hearty meal, and the crunchy potatoes were amazing. The asparagus entree was cooked perfectly, and the Brown Sugar Pavlova with Pineapple and Passion Fruit Sauce was a standout for me! I went there as part of a Secret Foodies event. It was a great night of food and conversation! I agree. You can tell that Craig Macindoe is passionate about what he does. And it shows. The food was amazing on my visit.

I've been there myself too many times to count. Great write up of the night's meal and love the pavlova shot. I think Craig does a good job with using twitter to not only generate interest for his restaurant but just show off his interest and passion for food. Based on twitter alone, let alone the blog write-ups, I'm very much a fan of this place and I've yet to dine there. That will certainly change in the future... :) lol about the bread!
