It is a bit out of my way but for the #BlastedTweetup, I headed down to Tap & Barrel. I ordered a glass of Unorthodox Chardonnay (Blasted Church of course)!
We shared a couple of appies but I didn’t have a chance to really think them through – I enjoyed the deep fried pickles though! I’d love to come back and try their sticky yam fries (made with burnt marshmallow fluff – $8).
I ordered the Blackened Wild Salmon ($16) which is served with some roasted corn, black beans, avocado, cherry tomato & chipotle ranch. It was a good salad for a pub, the salmon was delicious and flavourful and not too over done. The salad is a little small for what it’s worth but it’s definitely something different compared to other pubs that offer the regular cobb and caesars.
