Places I have found and enjoyed to eat a meal, or grab a coffee,  while out and about.  Sadly, the food scene can be a transient place, and I hope you are able to enjoy these recommendations while they are still around!

What a great time we had at the Southern Highlands Food and Wine Festival 2022!  The rain managed to hold off for a while, the event organisers managed to find enough straw to lay on the soggy ground so that we could walk around without looking like mud wrestling contestants, and we were treated to some very enjoyable musical entertainment.  Plus, did I mention there was Food AND Wine??
