Deco Restaurant At The Springs RetreatPh: (03) 5348 2202; The Springs Retreat, 124 Main Rd, HEPBURN SPRINGS 3461 www.thesprings.com.au Contemporary, $$ + Other published opinions Age Good Food Guide 2008 "The evocative Art Deco refurbishment of Peppers Springs Retreat recalls a time when it was fashionable to 'take the waters'" Age Good Food Guide 2005, score 14/20 "A GRAND 1930s guesthouse has been transformed into a deluxe retreat, with a plush formal dining room that foreshadows the ambitions of Clinton Camilleri's food. At first glance the small menu looks conservative and Frenchified, with terrines, ballotines and roulades jockeying for attention. But on the plate, the chef's classic training is used to fine effect in refined yet witty dishes." AGFG 2004, score 14/20 "THIS newcomer to the Spa Country scene has the goods to challenge the area's big players. For a start, it's in gorgeous surrounds, an iconic Art Deco hotel with more than a dash of Gatsby glamour. Chef Clinton Camilleri has a good pedigree, too, having worked at Blakes and Lake House. His food shows confidence and flair, backed by strong European techniques. " |
