The Sydney Morning Herald 2010 Good Food Guide highlights some of the fantastic food, events and eating out available on the South Coast.
Local produce, cafes, restaurants and food festivals are an important part of life on the Coast.

We also love to personally try out new restaurants wherever we travel. Most of the time, the enthusiasm of a new operator means that we enjoy a superb gastronomic experience.
For example, we've found that Cupitt's Winery and restaurant [just near Milton/Ulladulla/Mollymook] is providing exceptional fare at reasonable prices and a great selection of wines [for a newly established winery].
