Food Scene
The best restaurant in town. without a doubt. have to book ahead - but worth coming into the bar for a glass of biodynamic/orange wine and a cheese board - you MUST call up in advance to do this. Restaurant focuses on foraged/seasonal produce - whatever the gamesman has bought in that morning goes on the menu. Some of the best meals I've ever had have been here.
