Saturday nighttime provided our start out conduct chances to banking concern tally out the Melbourne International Film Festival. Cindy had spent all twenty-four hours preparing for the indoor picnic nosotros had scheduled for sun (coming soon!) as well as amongst a 7:30 motion painting (Snow Angels - okay, but a fleck on the bleak side) coming up, it was fourth dimension for us to discovery roughly other local dining spot to relieve both unloose energy as well as time. We're fast running out of interesting local places to investigate, but later racking our brains for a piece nosotros remembered the Hotel Lincoln, a 'foodie' pub at the southern terminate of Cardigan Street.
The pub has 2 sections - a forepart bar as well as a restaurant. Slightly confusingly, there's no existent departure inwards the sections - you lot tin lodge from the bar carte du jour inwards the eating theater as well as vice-versa. It's a fleck confusing (particularly when the menus are on blackboards important you lot accept to walk dorsum as well as forth betwixt the forepart as well as dorsum of the pub to suss out all your options). We settled into the eating theater department as well as kicked dorsum amongst a drinkable each (apparently the vino listing is quite impressive, but I was happy amongst Coopers on tap as well as Cindy wanted a lemon, lime as well as bitters).
Neither carte du jour is filled amongst vegie alternatives - I think at that spot was a curry as well as a pasta on the bar menu, but nosotros both chose from the eating theater menu: homemade pesto gnocchi amongst wilted spinach, flaked almonds as well as pecorino ($18.50) for Cindy as well as a Middle Eastern cheese as well as pino nut pastry amongst mint yoghurt ($12.50) as well as a side-salad ($5.50) for me.
The nutrient came out promptly as well as smelled delicious. Cindy's pasta was sprinkled amongst delicious cheese as well as was generously slathered inwards roughly mighty fine pesto. Gnocchi ever wears me downward past times the terminate as well as and then it proved for Cindy - she got through close three-quarters earlier filling upward and, despite a slight over-abundance of oil, she was pretty content.
My pastries came out inwards a neat lilliputian tower amongst generous slathers of yoghurt sauce as well as a proficient sprinkle of walnuts. They were cheesy as well as delicious, but my side plate of greens proved a wise deed - it mightiness accept been likewise much cholesterol for me otherwise.
The nutrient was great, the service was quick (meaning nosotros made it to the movies on time) as well as the atmosphere was pleasant - the scarcity of vego options way it may live on a piece earlier nosotros return, but I'd heartily recommend the identify to meat-eaters out there.
