Annie Smithers Bistrot

You'll want to leave at the crack of dawn for a daytrip to Kyneton – and bring a sturdy set of runners to try and maximise the potential number of meals you can consume in 12 hours. The Royal George; Mr Carsisi; Dhaba. This town is packing serious kitchen heat, and Annie Smithers started it all. Her red brick institution offers the true farm to table experience (she's running the veggie plot herself) where game and produce become rustic terrines, and thrice cooked lamb with fresh, seasonal sides. Even if the farmhouse fare isn't your style, grab a wine at the new front bar on your way to your alternate dining destination.
