Templo\u2019s tiny 20-seat restaurant feels like it\u2019s welcoming you into the home of a good friend. And with mostly communal tables, there\u2019s a good chance your neighbours will be your mates by the end of the evening!<\/p>\n<p>Templo serves ridiculously good Italian-inspired dishes with banging wine matches and a killer soundtrack to complete the vibe. Oh, and one of the friendliest teams around (and that\u2019s saying something in Hobart). You can order \u00e0 la carte from the ever-changing blackboard menu, but I reckon you\u2019d be crazy not to select the chef\u2019s menu and let the kitchen wow you with their magic. The gnocco fritto starter is a must and you will need to order another round. Trust me, they\u2019re that good. Book ahead for this gem, you won\u2019t regret it.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B0vmDhAg7lv\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\">\n<div style=\"padding: 16px;\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 19% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-top: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;\">View this post on Instagram<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 12.5% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; margin-bottom: 14px; align-items: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center; margin-bottom: 24px;\"><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\"><a style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B0vmDhAg7lv\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A post shared by Nicole Redfern (@nic.redfern)<\/a> on <time style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px;\" datetime=\"2019-08-04T13:25:34+00:00\">Aug 4, 2019 at 6:25am PDT<\/time><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 10px;\">2. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theagrariankitchen.com\/The_Agrarian_Kitchen\/The_Agrarian_Kitchen_Cooking_School_%26_Eatery.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Agrarian Kitchen<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><em><strong>Go for\u2026<\/strong> the perfect long lunch<\/em><\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll struggle to find a better long lunch option in Australia than the Agrarian Kitchen.<\/p>\n<p>Housed in an old mental asylum \u2013 how that\u2019s for history and character?! \u2013 the large windows, high ceilings and expansive dining room are overseen by a formidable front-house team and stellar kitchen crew.<\/p>\n<p>Located in New Norfolk, a 30-minute drive from Hobart \u2013 trust me, it\u2019s worth negotiating a designated driver for this one \u2013 the AK celebrates seasonal produce in a way that many restaurants can only aspire to.
