OK so that pic above is not representative of the food at The Montague, but sausages are pretty funny and they do have an impressive charcuterie selection.
So Saturday night was 'date night' - and we went to The Montague in Sth Melbourne. Short story is that it used to be crap and now it's great and a bit fancy pants! The food is the kind you pay a bit more for but you don't feel like you have been totally ripped off at the end. We ordered lots of tasty treats including goats cheese and beetroot salad, ocean trout, carpaccio, but because we are in with the chef, Jules, we ended up having 6 courses - including charcuterie (prepared meat products, hehe, salami, confit, etc = katie has to go to gym in the morning) - and scallops and desert of peach tart, dark choc mousse and panacota, and then a cheese plate. We had some lovely Portuguese wine and a lovel pinot from NZ. Service was really great too - not overly fussy - but we never had an empty glass.
