Soak up waterfront views and sea breezes at Rupert & Hound on Seaport Boulevard in Launceston. This seafood restaurant is committed to delivering simple, honest food created with the freshest, most sustainable produce with an emphasis on minimal waste and maximum flavour, from stunning surrounds where marina views blend seamlessly with creative cocktails and cuisine. Take a seat on the deck to watch boats glide past, or indoors where full glass frontages bring the ocean to your table, while perusing breakfast tempters like corn and zucchini fritters, poached egg, grilled halloumi, rocket and roasted capsicum relish. Dine later for starters of Tasmanian oysters, chorizo crumb and garlic butter; before pan-seared Atlantic salmon, fondant potato, leek cream, tomato and caper antiboise sauce.
