I was really disappointed after reading your fantastic review. The service was average, some of the food was cold and to be honest some of the serving portions were a bit on the small side.

@Joyce
Yeah, you may be right. I've been twice about a year ago and haven't been enticed back since (I live closer to Brunswick St than Smith St).

My favourite breakfast spot at the moment is Birdman Eating in Gertrude St - that is worth the trip.

Mmm looks good. But I think it would kill me to go to a lesser provenance.

We finally made it to Beechworth last week. The vegetarian degustation was possibly the best meal I've ever had. Certainly in recent memory. All I can say to every fooodie I meet is "go. splurge!" Oh, and the matching wines weren't half bad either.

I'm just so glad they do seasonal menus.. so I can go back!
