Juliet and I like to go out for lunch every fortnight or so in autumn and spring. We sit outdoors, which is safe for the toddlers and the amenities they explore.
One of our favorites is the Riverdeck Cafe in Bright. Sometimes we ride the bikes there. Sometimes we go further afield to Beechworth or Milawa.
Today we revisted the Big Shed Cafe at Smoko for the first time since March. I cycled the 18km out there, while Juliet took Kathleen, James and Margaret in the car. Snow on Hotham and Feathertop gave a magnificent backdrop.
It’s the first time I’d ridden in that direction, so it was interesting to see Freeburgh from the saddle. It’s always a different perspective compared with driving.
I had potato croquettes for lunch with green salad and sweet chilli sauce, washed down with a “zinger” (apple, carrot and tomato juice with ginger). Juliet had deep-fried camembert.
