Provenance

Top choice in Victorian High Country


In an 1856 bank building, Provenance has elegant but contemporary fine dining. Under the guidance of local chef Michael Ryan, the innovative menu features modern Australian fare with Japanese influences, such as smoked wallaby tartare with umeboshi, egg yolk and miso sauce. If you can’t decide, go for the degustation menu. Bookings are essential. There's also a vegetarian degustation menu.

Accommodation-wise there are four boutique rooms ($200 to $310) here in what were once horse stables.
