I'm not sure, my wife works in cellar door.
Warwick Duthy is the on site "boss" and the chief winemaker is one of the Mitchell's. Their was a board member from Sydney there that made a speech but I didn't meet him.

Just went to 1918 in Tanunda, have to say it was some of the best food I have ever eaten in my life. Food was quite pricey, but not too bad - it was $190 for two of us, but that was shared entree, mains, dessert and a bottle of wine. Service was perfect too - not rushed but not slow either, just perfect.
Highly recommend, 10/10

Completely agree with the Montezumas statement. Food looks like slop from the pigs trough. Given it a couple of chances and it's been gross both times. Having said that not a big fan of Mexican food, can't fault their alcohol though.

Columbo wrote:Good thread this one, had a scan through to look for some new places to go with Mrs Columbo, thought I'd add my two cents worth, most of them are in the Entertainment book.
Albion Hotel - Used to go regularly after renovations a few years back, don't think it's as good these days but still a pretty good selection of pub food and has the salad and veggie bar too.
The Excelsior - Bit pricey without the voucher but never had a bad meal there, staff are pretty relaxed, nice little pub.
Strathmore - Balcony restaurant is nice but Cafe 129 is our preferred option with all the vouchers we get from swapping with friends, never had a bad meal here either, always have stonegrill so cant comment on anything else, love that you place your order, go get a drink and your meal is on the table when you get back to it.
The Woodville - Pretty big renovations going on at the moment, sounds like it will be pretty cool place when its done, prior to that another good stonegrill place, schnitzels weren't bad either not too over priced.
The Brompton - Been twice, had stonegrill both times (adventurous aren't I?) Very nice but you don't get alot with it for what you pay compared to Strathmore and the Woodville.
Brunelli - the best garlic bread as long as its not too thin and crispy, seems they do slightly different menus in the 3 stores now, lots of choices, better than primo, probably a bit more expensive but you get what you pay for. Have been to Glynde one a few times and they have given the EB voucher back...smart move.
Birkenhead Tavern - burgers are good, seafood good, pretty reasonable prices, well worth a visit.
Lighthouse Inn - Had lunch there last Sunday before having a wander at the market, salad and veggie bar were ok, beef schnitzel wasn't flash, crumbs were almost as thick on one side as the bit of beef they covered. Loved the old style pokie machines though.
For anyone heading to Melbourne...
Cafe on Bourke (top end of bourke st near parliament house) - genuine Italian place, not fancy but have the best pizzas.
Margos at Crown - basic menu but goes ok
TGI Fridays on Chapel St - probably the same as all the others but good value with voucher.
