......What's so special about this particular pub .......

Heaps - it has been a favourite 'launching pad' for heaps of Vic riders over the years, who want to do a day-thrash around the Snowy Mountains roads - from Tintaldra, there are a lot of options open. The publican (Alf) and his missus (Maija) have owned this place for donkey's years, and there have been a lot of stories in AMCN over the years where the Tintaldra Pub gets a mention - generally from Ken Wootton.

Its a very motorcycle-friendly pub, and as Mel has mentioned - we stop there every year on the way home from the CDT, as the CD on offer here are one of the highlights of the trip. You need to sample the eggplant before you diss it mate - it's awesome !

It's a vegetable, Mel will eat it, nuff said

[Wattie]

Its made by special request! (they even get extra staff in to help cook when we are coming through)

You have obviously never been there Mick.

I would have to say that it is my Favourite Pub - just cause I feel at hoome there.









Oh and Moussaka

[ZXRobyn]

Yeh, here here to that Phil !

Ok, so i recorded it, then i remembered that the ABC put these shows on their website, so it is a bit of a moot point me compressing and uploading it if all i have to do is direct you lot to a url. A quick Synopsis about the show here, and the direct link to the episode (94 meg). The content including the Hotel starts at about 19:30 into it or so, however its worth watching in full if you either 1) are a big poetry fan or 2) you like looking at just how beautiful our country really can be as they have taken some beautiful shots of the town and surrounding areas.
