Restaurant Tranquilo

For ambient dining among old deciduous trees in the Adelaide Hills, take to Restaurant Tranquilo along Mt Barker Road in Stirling. Visitors are welcomed in, where winter coats are hung up on hooks and a cosy seat awaits by the log fire for romantic dining in this warm establishment. Polished timber floorboards add to the rustic charm of this country style café and a specials blackboard at the far end allures with a showcasing of local produce in mouth-watering meals. With a glass of wine, or perhaps a boutique brewed beer in hand, peruse the menu for mains like the tender lamb shanks, slow cooked with seasonal vegetables in a garlic, thyme and white wine sauce followed by desserts such as the Ferrero Mess mousse and meringue with strawberries, Chantilly cream and hazelnut praline.
