<\/a>Dimities Cottage at Wondai is famous all over the South Burnett – and many other parts of south-east Queensland – for its high teas and smorgasbords.<\/p>\n Bus tours regularly pull into Wondai to inspect this large, quirky Queenslander and fill hungry tummies at the same time.<\/p>\n Locals are regular visitors, too.<\/p>\n Why? Because there’s heaps of food, all cooked in the old-style country way, and it’s fresh, hearty, healthy and inexpensive.<\/p>\n In fact, a meal out at Dimities is often cheaper than cooking at home. And there’s no washing up afterwards!<\/p>\n During the South Burnett and Cherbourg On Show<\/strong><\/a> long weekend, Dimities Cottage will be running two great tummy-fillers for guests:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Spring Garden Party is an a-la-carte affair where guests can order while they enjoy Dimities’ great gardens, which are coming back to vibrant life after the long, sub-zero nights of winter.<\/p>\n The Garden Party’s high tea features everything great about the South Burnett – from Lady Flo’s pumpkin scones, Bunya Nut shortbreads, peanut and chocolate cupcakes through to Chef’s sweet and savoury treats, all for just $12.50 per head.<\/p>\n But if you’d like something more filling, why not try one of Dimities’ famous Plowman’s Platers featuring local cheeses, olives, breads and smallgoods, then finish off with a piece of Dimities Cottage garden cheesecake while you relax on the cottage’s verandahs?<\/p>\n On Sunday, Dimities’ $15 per head BYO smorgasbord will allow you to eat what you like – and as much as you like – from Dimities’ wide range of wholesome starters, mains and desserts.<\/p>\n Visitors can also have a lot of fun on either day browsing through the cottage, which contains beautifully restored period furniture, original artworks and lots of unusual decorations, plus a great range of crafts and giftware and locally produced fresh honey, jams and condiments.<\/p>\n There’ll also be cottage garden plants on sale as well if you have a green thumb.<\/p>\n Dimities is also located right across the street from the Wondai Regional Art Gallery<\/strong><\/a> and right next to the beautifully restored 111-year-old Wondai Hotel.<\/p>\n This makes it a perfect place to rest and recuperate if you go to inspect either (or both) of these wonderful places.<\/p>\n<\/a>September 27, 2015<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/a>\n
