So we have a new local! Herbert's at Evatt. When you Google Herbert's Evatt, some of the results are for Herbert Evatt, who the suburb was named after. Learn something new every day ;)
Tony has been going there quite a bit over recent months. It's been super popular over the covid period, with people working from home and going there for lunches and dinners - he's had to book in advance just to get a table. With people going back to work now, and now that it's not so "new", business has dropped a little, and with covid capacity restrictions easing it's easier to get in. So couple of weeks ago I met up with Tony and Jess and Keira for lunch.
Their favourite brewer is Tumut River Brewing Company and they have several of their beers on tap!
When we were in Tumut in August we heard about TRBC's Fifty Shades of Purple, which Herbert's had on tap, so I finally got to try it!
It was purple when they first tapped it - Tony got to try the first glass! But it was quite blue by the time I got to it. It makes your whole mouth turn blue!
I was going to be going out for a birthday barbeque in the evening so I thought I'd go for a light lunch and order off the starters menu. I got four mac and cheese balls which were quite yummy, but huge! I was actually *full* all afternoon! Whoops!
Last Friday I met up with Tony and the Chrises for lunch again. They still had some Fifty Shades of Purple left, so had some of that, as well as a Ginja Ninja. This time I thought I'd order off the starter menu again and got the lemon chicken skewers. Also delicious, but I was *full* all afternoon - whoops!
I'll have to get the sweetie there some time. Would be a great place to drop in for a drink after work. And if they start doing breakfast on the weekends we could do brunch there sometimes :)
