Ochre Restaurant
Ochre Restaurant Review
Local seafood and native ingredients have top billing at this upscale yet casual spot that specializes in bush dining. Try the Australian antipasto platter: 'roo terrine, emu pâté, and crocodile wontons. Most dishes employ native foods and seasonal ingredients: sample wild-caught barramundi or emu fillet with bush tomato, or order a vegetarian, Australian game, or seafood platter to share (A$29-A$66 per person, min. 2). Ochre's signature dessert, wattle-seed pavlova with Davidson plum sorbet and macadamia biscotti, makes a fine finish; or settle into a velvet booth and quaff a glass of Australian wine.

Locals seem to like it and we did, too. Largely local stuff: bugs (don't ask, just eat them), emu, venison,local seafood and so on.
