The incomparable Ricki Wood is coming to the EAST on his lap of regional Victoria soon!
A feast for the palate and the ears all at once... he's a good looking Rooster 🐓 so might as well throw in a feast for the eyes too 🤪

$80pp with tapas rolling out all afternoon of Sunday November 22nd.

Round up your gang for an immersive experience.

Going to mix things up tomorrow night...
The Bar is OPEN (SLATHER) 😉

Get your knock offs at the EAST from 5pm and we will send out the first Pintxos/Tapas dishes with your first drink.
Then stay for as many snacks as you need to accompany the flowing drinks and we will charge thusly.
No need to commit to the three FULL hour experience but we will be ready just in case. And you always need to take care of "Justin... just-in case!" 🤪

For bookings call 0418 358 777 or email [email protected] or rock in and we will sort you out! (Best with a heads up message so I am prepared though.)
See you in the EAST for knock off drinks after the hot day ahead.
Spread the word!

Great day to get outside and indulge! As if you need an excuse...

Kicks off from 12pm, rolling out the pintxos and tapas favourites from a European adventure, it's a holiday in your backyard. Well, my backyard to be more accurate 🤪

OK!!! Get excited for this one... or two!
Young Gun of Australian W**e, Tom McCarthy from QUEALY and OLD MAN SUN is on his way to East Gippsland to showcase and educate diners on some old favourites and (as always from this family of pioneering winemakers) new varieties and styles in the Australian market.

Serving up fun and frivolity with nibbles and sparkling to start, then gallivanting through a selection of 6 wines thoughtfully paired with dishes to accentuate the flavour profiles and finishing with Cheese, specifically curated Petit Four and Noble Rot Botrytis to round out an exceptional dining experience @ $195pp.

I spent many years working with Tom, Kev and Kathleen at T'Gallant in the early 2000s, then a conversation with an old mate has evolved into a couple of events to share with the dining enthusiasts of East Gippsland.

Put it in the calendar NOW, round up a crew and call 0418 358 777 or email [email protected] to book your seats. Limited to 20 patrons for Saturday evening from 6pm and Sunday lunch from 12pm.

Spread the word and SHARE. Not to be missed or you will have to hear about it from those who did make it!

(And yes... Gallivanting was an old T'Gallant pun 🤪)

As we settle into warmer weather and longer days, here at the EAST we will be taking you on a little European adventure channelling the places, flavours and people we met along the way.
From floating on a boat in Como, to staying with friends on a Swiss W**ery, a Water Jousting festival with my Godparents in Sète, Tapas in Barcelona, Anchovies in Santoña, Pintxos in the Basque region, seafood markets near Bayonne and through Bordeaux to Paris.

Some will be shameless rip offs of dishes that encapsulate a place, others will have some creative freedom as we recreate how we felt and will throw in a few of our own ideas to bring it home to East Gippsland.

Still have availability for our new Spring Menu for Friday and Saturday nights or come in for a Long Sunday lunch to round out the weekend.

For bookings call 0418 358 777 or email [email protected]

We are BACK from our European adventure and straight into making memories happen... but this was EXTRA SPECIAL!!!

A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to Tom & Liv who were engaged under the Holly tree in our orchard at the start of Saturday evening. Quickly followed by Ch*****ne 🍾, showing off the sparkly ring to family and friends and rolling out the new Spring Menu.
Then spiralling into Tequila shots and Zorba the Greek dancing as the evening progressed 🤪 🇬🇷 💃 🕺

For anyone else with a ring burning a hole in your pocket, we would love to work with you to pull off a proposal to remember, as you only get one chance!

See you in the EAST soon

Just one element of a dish, in an evening filled with many of them.

If you asked my Godmother in France how to make any ingredient better, she would always just splash some appropriate refined booze on it. "Parfait!" ###
Looking forward to a little break in late August to go and cook with my family in Sète 🇫🇷

Fully booked for tonight and Saturday evening with space available for Sunday lunch from 12pm.
