My Idea of Heaven
A visit to Tyrrell’s.
Hey Rosey
When I was younger, I worked in bars and restaurants for many years. The places I worked at were either mom and pop or high-end fine dining. So, as a complete contrast, when I would go out, I developed a taste for what has been become known as “dive bars”.
The Byng Street Hotel
Warmth and welcome in Orange. There are two hotels on Byng Street, the Gladstone and the Byng Street Boutique Hotel. You definitely want the latter. The Byng Street Boutique Hotel is the passion and joint creation of, Thomas and Kristen Nock, a husband-and-wife team.
You will meet both of them as most day they are working the front desk or the restaurant, greeting and looking after their guests.
Rikard, the pursuit of Burgundy in Orange
This is the wine making most vineyards like to hide behind a plush cellar door. Rikard Wines is a working vineyard. The cellar door arrived in 2021 and you can sit inside, nice and warm and cosy and taste the wines.
