"For the 13 point rating to remain constant in the hat system is great recognition for the whole Tinamba Hotel teams focus on continuously improving the guest experience" says Simon Johnson, owner of Tinamba Hotel. Australian Good Food Guides Chef Hat's have been awarded to discerning Chefs around the country since 1982. These awards are the result of careful deliberation. Inspectors appointed by AGFG dine anonymously. Their reviews and the opinions of the dining public, who generously send in their comments throughout the year, determine the results. Tinamba Hotel is proud to set the benchmark with Sardine Eatery and Bar, and Hogget Kitchen, and a newcomer in as the other hatted restaurants in Gippsland. Thanks to the amazing team who have earned our place on this list. Be sure to reserve in advance, now that the word is out. Your table is waiting!
