Guests can also enjoy three ‘tastes’ from the menu, each matched with Bimbadgen wines in either white or red varieties. A la carte is also available, and diners will be treated to a sumptuous feast of ravioli of Manning River prawn, with capsicum consommé for entrée or seared Mandagery Creek venison fillet with celeriac puree, confit garlic and Bimbadgen Cabernet Syrup. For main course dine on the likes of twice cooked and caramelised Cowra lamb with rosemary gnocchi and truss cherry tomatoes or star anise roasted Blue Mountains duck with orange compote and roasted baby beetroots. Dessert is equally delectable with the likes of poached Goulburn pear with chocolate sauce and pecan ice-cream or almond and rhubarb tart with apple ice-cream.
