Dining
Please your palate, sate your appetite and sample to your heart's content on city-quality food in unforgettably stunning surrounds.
First-rate food and wine matching in the Yarra Valley
Match the Yarra Valley's fine wines with equally fine foods and an impressive array of fresh seasonal produce.
Linger over long lunches in spectacular winery restaurants with breathtaking views, like Bella Vedere, Mandala Wines, De Bortoli's Locale Restaurant, Immerse Yarra Valley and Yering Station.
Fill up on wholesome 'farm table' fare in friendly cafes around Healesville and receive hearty country welcomes and fine feeds in pubs like the Healesville Hotel or the emporium that is Giant Steps/Innocent Bystander.
Settle into five-star-style within heritage homes with corresponding cuisine and accommodation.
Local delights in the Dandenong Ranges
Gorge on generously-proportioned local dishes against the backdrop of towering trees and misty ranges. Indulge in the fresh cream and just-baked scones of the famous Devonshire teas at icons like Miss Marples around Olinda and Sassafras.
Survey all of Melbourne before you when you feast at SkyHigh atop Mount Dandenong, or dine on the go aboard Puffing Billy's dining car. Take high tea or grab cakes to go from Wickedly Delicious Patisserie in Monbulk.
