Celebrating the Queen's Birthday in Kyneton

One of my favourite things to do on a weekend is to go out and explore Victoria in all its beautiful caffeine filled glory. Considering we had the Queen's birthday long weekend (well its not actually her birthday but for some reason we like to celebrate it 2 months later), we decided it was time to explore the beautiful town of Kyneton.




If you ever have the opportunity to go, the iconic Piper St is the place to hit. You could literally spend hours walking along the street, popping into the cutest little shops, plenty of cafe's and restaurants to choose from, bed and breakfasts if your after a gorgeous quiet retreat. A gorgeous day out and only an hour from Melbourne CBD.





After much deliberation and our bellies just begging us to pick a place, we decided upon Annie Smithey Bistrot. What enticed me the most was the fact that they served all local produce and organic where available.



For main I had Confit free range Duck Leg, the hubby had braised beef with dauphinois potatoes and we shared a salad of freekah, quinoa, hazelnuts and ricotta. Let the mouth watering begin!
Let me tell you our plates were so clean you didn't need to wash the plate.




And your probably thinking, surely they couldn't fit dessert....... Oh but we can :) haha!






To those of you who had a long weekend, I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did!
What are your favourite places to visit?
