Meal-up
So I was supposed to have a get-away down South.
1 week of floundering around wineries of Margaret River, tasting wines and seasonal produce.
But Mr Murphy’s Law was rightfully instructing. We got sick.
3 days savagely bed ridden with a bout of gastro-intestinal dysfunction. Hoary! for Gastrolyte or I’d probably be dead.
Consolation prize: you get to discover the eateries 15 min drive from your hotel. Meal-up was one of those places.
It’s a kinda shop, open kitchen, tapas, light eatery thingy that is approachable at random hours of the day. Well random for the dysfunctional intestines we seemed to be suffering from.
The ‘take’ is: fresh, organic, wholesome and holistic. You will eat off biodegradable plates with biodegradable cutlery. The food is mindfully crafted by Chef Adam Lane. Nicolette helps with front of house with her gorgeous demeanour and stunning heterochromatic eyes (different eye colour). Husband and wife team helped by Lisa Tayolr. The food is nothing short of amazing. End of story.
Warming food. Warming philosophy. Love it. It helped healed my wretched belly

Awesome. (Not about the food sickness). I love the little places like this that you discover unexpectedly. Also, isn’t Meal-up a cool little play on words? Meelup is an actual location down that way, isn’t it?

There are quite a few nasty tummy bugs going around. Glad to hear that you have recovered.
I had a look at their web side and I must say for such a homely and healthy approach to their cooking and produce they look very classy and rather sophisticated.
