Pasta and wine are always a great idea at Osteria Morelli on Ballina Street in Lennox Heads. Expect to sample dishes showcasing Northern Rivers produce using Italian techniques and principles at this restaurant, where whitewashed and exposed brick, metal pendents and spice-coloured walls invite lingering over memorable meals with family and friends, or a romantic rendezvous. An ever-evolving menu offers gourmet pasta plates such as smoked eggplant ravioli, nduja and cherry tomatoes, or twirl your fork around fettuccine with local Spanish mackerel alla puttanesca. Perhaps a swordfish steak hits the mark, served with sautéed vegetables and saffron, or Angus rump, grilled capsicum, greens and a side of triple-cooked fries; finish sweetly with panna cotta, mulberries, Vermouth and raspberries.
