A touch of French in regional Victoria
I love it when local produce is used, particularly in regional restaurants and at the Whirrakee, this is no exception.
Taking pride of place on View Street, Whirrakee, exudes old world charm. Walk in, and be transported to a dining room of a by gone era. Secure a table by the stained glass window and watch the world go by.
Eat: The menu, contemporary cuisine with a French influence, serves up some real gems in the salad of organic beetroots (be sure not to wear white), and the goat ragu served with homemade fettuccini and dill. It is no wonder that it has been awarded one chef hat. A big salute to regional dining.
