The Millswyn
On trend with distinct character
A long-time admirer (yet never a dinner) of Lynch’s, I didn’t know what to expect from the now French accented bistro, The Millswyn. With neighbours like The Botanical and Bacash, chef Nathan Johnson (ex Maze Melbourne & Gordan Ramsey UK restaurants) serves up a well-chosen menu, complimented by a wine list full of excellent vintages.
Eat: Johnson’s take on some
traditional French classics proves triumphant. The duck breast was succulent and married well with the cherry jus. The triple cooked chips would give even Heston Blumenthal a run for his tried and tested recipe.

Drink: My request for a French martini, for that taste of 'ole gay Paris', was no stretch for the bar staff.
