RNIS was invited by Dimmi to spend $20 and they paid the rest themselves.
The O'Connell's Hotel is in South Melbourne and it's behind the South Melbourne Market. It took us a while to find and we did a run around it earlier so that we were not late. During my first year of the marathon, I learned that coming on time to everything is important. And it's not too late or too early.
The O'Connell's Hotel is like being in the tramcar restaurant. It has that fine dining feel to it. Here they have a huge wine list and a lot of good wines. I sampled a couple whilst there.
They do cater for functions and they have a lovely area outside.
To start off with I had the granita oyster ($4.5). Here they were really lemony and small and they had that lemony tang to it.
The complimentary bread was freshly baked and I really enjoyed the creaminess of the butter.
Then the main which is gnocchi ($22) was very cheesy and I liked it. Here they had a bit of kale in there to give it that crunch. The mint was very lovely in there.
And of course, to finish off I had the basil ice cream ($4.50). Here it was very minty and full of goodness. It was not too sweet.
Do come by O'Connell's Hotel when you want to celebrate something special. Oh and happy new year!
