Vasse Felix 2018


VASSE FELIX 2018

On June 14th I took the wife down south for a little birthday get away, since our birthdays are one day apart.  tThe main highlight for us both was having lunch at Vasse Felix. This year has seen Vasse take on a new head Chef Brendan Pratt who might I add was a chef at the famous restaurant The Ledbury and also at Heston Blumenthal’s Fat Duck! Vasse also has this year been awarded with two chef hats with the only other restaurant in WA being Cullen. Below is the menu and what we ordered and.

VASSE FELIX LUNCH

Just before Christmas we decided to venture down south to the Margaret River Region but more importantly to have an end of year late lunch with our friends at the Vasse Felix Winery. The restaurant is truly an amazing place to have lunch with a spectacular view one storey up over looking the vineyard. We sat down out on the balcony and enjoyed a few of Vasse’s best on offer starting with their sparkling, moving on to their white and finishing with our main meal and a very nice red.

I don’t like to post photos from restaurants without permission so my apologies on not going into too much detail on the food, never the less I would rate this restaurant as among one of WA’s best! As you can see by the photos below, the food by chef Aaron Carr was just want we needed to celebrate a big year for us all.
