Always a fun family day out, Cafe Narana just completes the experience with a bit of bush Tucker influenced cuisine and delicious food made from great produce. The milkshakes are great too!! We tried the corn fritters and slow cooked kangaroo ragu wrap and the kids had a ham and cheese toastie and pancakes - all delicious!
The food is delicious. A bit of a different fare from the usual cafe grub. The Johnny cakes are amazing, it's bush damper cooked on a griddle so it has a nice crispy exterior. The slow cooked kangaroo was probably my favourite. The dips are amazing too! They make their own cakes. Just prepare to be very patient, they are most certainly always under staffed. They take their time, so you will be waiting awhile to get some service. They aren't in a hurry to clear the tables so you will more than likely just be sitting at your table with plates and things still there. Take the time to go on a bush walk, feed the friendly emu's and wallabies. Visit the shop and bring home a souvenir.
So fortunate to spend half a day at #narana_cultural_centre today with colleagues. Started with an explore of the gift shop which quite frankly, took my breath away with art, fragrance and books.
Then braved the autumnal weather and went outside to find the emus, wallabies and the one kangaroo. All of which were delightful. I see these animals all the time for work but still enjoy seeing them up close and personal. Love our Australian creatures.
Our guide, Mel was magical with so much knowledge to share and a make our time special. She’s a gem.
The art gallery was amazing and between us, all shared an appreciation of the talent of the artists and their work.
We had lunch at #cafenarana which has an extensive menu. My corn fritters were amazing. Portion sizes large and generous as well as tasty. The wraps were enormous and full of fresh produce. Staff serving us were so friendly and delightful. Most thankful for their service.
