The Agrarian Kitchen Restaurant

A former mental asylum in the Derwent Valley, now filled with natural light and the smell of wood smoke, turns out to be exactly the right setting for a restaurant this serious about Tasmanian produce. The team behind Australia's best-known cookery school runs the kitchen, leaning on fermentation, pickling, and open-fire cooking, while keeping the plates spare enough that a raw tomato with anchovy sauce can hold its own.
