When it comes to good food there's no easy choice at Home!

With a list of share plates to start including 'Japanese fried drunken chicken w wasabi mayo' and 'Beetroot & walnut arancini w blue cheese and honey' you may be tempted to just order from this extensive list however it would be a sin to over look the mains available (restaurant only) like the 'Lamb rump w parsnip & feta mash, silver beet dolmades, anchovy crumbs'.

This place is a little quirky as you step back in time with decor, plates and books on the tables that could be from the 50's - call it eclectic if you like. This wasn't a problem and certainly didn't detract from the quality if both service and food. Glynn the host was very polite and attentive to all patrons whilst making you feel special. Food was top notch modern Australian with a whiff of European infusion. Cost with a decent bottle of wine is not cheap but then not super expensive and at the end of the day you get what you pay for. Note that you'll need to book as the restaurant is small and cozy probably seating between 20-30 people and was full with what seemed to be a mixture of regular patrons on new comers like myself. Would recommend and will go back again myself. Mike L
