There are many restaurants renowned for a signature dish. 

Some chefs see it as a blessing for repeat business, others see it as a curse of repetition, but few share the same word of mouth folklore as Giovanni Pilu’s suckling pig dish at his award-winning restaurant Pilu at Freshwater.

For over 40 years Michael Wohlstadt (The Dairy Man Heritage Pork) has produced milk and meat in the Barossa Valley. But more recently he’s made a name for himself with the way he is farming pigs. Michael’s Jersey Milk is used for butter and cream, but it’s also used to raise free range Berkshire and Tamworth pigs. And it’s likely to be the only milk-fed pig herd in Australia.

One of the beautiful elements of the evolution of Australia’s culinary landscape is the blurring of the lines between restaurant and Bar. And few have managed to nail that balance from a food perspective better than Josh Lundy (Bar Rochford, Canberra) in the nation’s Capital.
