To Eat

Real Food Life

Sarah, owner of Real Food Life has found the perfect balance to be home and present with her two young children
as well as filling their bellies and the wider world with fresh, healthy food. Although her treats are predominantly
raw, the overarching philosophy is probably more Paleo based. Sourcing fresh local ingredients, grown organically
or biodynamic where possible with minimal intervention. Sarah’s amazing food is available from many local Fleurieu eateries in the Great Southern,Qahwa, Mega Health and Wildfire Organic Tea shed just to name a few.
Recent catering gigs also include the red carpet premier of Storm Boy – January 2019, where dinner boxes were presented to over 250 VIP’s. Get in contact with Sarah as she is happy to cater for holiday makers, community events or your own private functions.

To Drink

Swell Brewing Company

New digs for old locals. Corrina and Dan Wright have expanded their empire of grape growing and winemaking at Oliver’s Taranga Vineyards to the latest labour of love – their new Swell Brewing Company and eatery. For those that are familiar with Chef Steele’s fare you know it is perfectly matched with beer – the whole bar wall is complete with 16 pull taps, so there’s not much of a wait for drinkies.An expansive lawn, mezzanine and toilets to talk about – they have thought of it all.

To Perk Up

One Little Sister Cafe

One should only talk about their amazing coffee with every modification or milk option that
they serve to perfection…but everything about these guys is cool and wholesome. You might just roll in for a poached egg and a brew, but come out with –some fabulous ‘trivets’ made by an ethical charity and some lemon curd tart -because the crust looks like a mix of all your best biscuits smooshed into one. So go on – have your Piccolo three quarter decaf ristretto with two eye droppers of goats cream on top.
I’m sure they could do it!
