Dine in vintage splendour at historic homestead Little Kickerbell on Bundella Road at Quirindi. This café is part of a Liverpool Plains farmhouse planning to offer food events, workshops, art residencies and boutique accommodation, in a quaint backdrop of rolling green pastures. With a wide verandah for enjoying alfresco drinks and open fire in the dining room to warm evening chills, Little Kickerbell is a refuge away from worries of the world, as diners peruse an ever-evolving menu of innovative fare. Weekend guests may choose from dishes such as shakshuka – soft cooked eggs, spicy tomato and red pepper sauce with lima beans and zaatar toast, or delve into the likes of a wood nymph salad bowl with organic grains, seeds, roasted carrots, toasted broccolini, raisins and almond ricotta.
