Trunk Restaurant & Bar
Tonight I attended a Gourmet Traveller Readers Dinner at Trunk Restaurant. A wonderful six course dinner was served, plus appetisers and matched wines from Mac Forbes. A fabulous experience with an emphasis on simple, clean flavours and quality produce. A fantastic restaurant and a very enjoyable night.

For now here are the food pics. ==REVIEW TO FOLLOW==
