点评:I dropped in to The Church to check it out while heading through Ballandean this weekend. Really nice place - beautifully done - and had friendly staff that got the balance right between being informative and unintrusive simultaneously. Wine table would be good for a couple or group, but I was travelling on my own, so I opted for the wine tasting machines. Wasn't sure about this concept - but it's fantastic. Tried a few , and ended up buying bottles from two different wineries. Local gourmet providore and deli type items looked good, but I didn't get them to try. Same for the truffle fries and toasties that people seemed to be enjoying - will try next visit. Something I haven't seen mentioned except in nomad and caravan forums, is that it's a perfect rest stop on the NE highway corner between Stanthorpe and Glenn Innes. Room for dog to stretch legs and easy van parking. All up I'd say having about 30 wineries in one spot along with various food producers is a great concept, that has been superbly executed and def worth stopping.
翻译:这个周末我路过 Ballandean 时顺便去了教堂看看。真的很不错的地方 - 装修精美 - 友好的员工在提供信息和不打扰客人之间取得了很好的平衡。葡萄酒桌适合情侣或团体,但我是独自旅行,所以我选择了品酒机。不确定这个概念 - 但它太棒了。尝试了一些,最后买了两瓶来自不同酒庄的酒。当地美食供应商和熟食店的东西看起来不错,但我没有让他们尝尝。人们似乎很喜欢的松露薯条和烤面包也一样 - 下次去会尝试。除了在游牧民族和大篷车论坛上,我没看到有人提到过,它是斯坦索普和格伦因尼斯之间东北高速公路拐角处的一个完美的休息站。有空间可以让狗伸展腿脚,而且可以轻松停放货车。总而言之,我想说,在一个地方拥有大约 30 家酿酒厂以及各种食品生产商是一个很棒的概念,而且执行得非常出色,绝对值得一试。
