thread to discuss the great stuff in and around Newy and the valley. Seeing as we don't get to go anywhere for the time being, I thought it a great way for people to recommend places to go and things to do in lieu of travelling.

Anything from restaurants to scenic lookouts to cycling tracks, where do you want to go or where have you been that was great?

Personally Ive been going around some of the restaurants in the wineries since Ive been back and been really impressed with the variety and quality, well on par with the pricey offerings in Sydneys CBD.
Highlights have been Baume and Lillino's.

Have seen local press about the Rum Diary Bar on Hunter St which opens this Friday. Will be keen to check it out, and hear from anyone who gets along to see what they think.
