Enjoy local and regional wines by the glass. The

"From a solid European training background, and
work as a chef in formal restaurants in Germany and South
Africa, to a former pub in a small Victorian town and an
interest in bush-tucker , Emeu Inn chef and co-owner
Fred Thies has travelled far." |

The refurbished dining room has a country feel. "His (Chef Thies) guests enjoy robust dishes that recall
his European origins and others that reflect his interest
in native Australian ingredients. Bush tomatoes add piquancy
to his spicy fresh tomato soup, while the signature dish
of Emu is braised in native pepperleaf sauce."
"Memories are made of dishes such as
Mama's Eintopf and Venison Cutlets of organic blueberries
and red cabbage braised with apple. His German gooseberry
meringue tart is not to be missed." ...Age
