Chanced upon Chris's Restaurant & Villas while planning the Melbourne trip. It was a toss between them and another resort along Apollo Bay and I'm glad we picked Chris's. Although I can't speak for the rest but our stay at Chris's was more than pleasant, it was out of this world if I may say so. Hubby managed to negotiate for a good deal, all thanks to an overdue advertisement that was no longer valid effective 4 years ago! And thanks to us it has been removed since. Anyway, we managed to negotiate for 2 nights Studio Accommodation plus 1 complimentary 3 course dinner for AUD 560.
The room is spacious and comes with a fully equipped kitchenette with cutleries and utensils. Impressive! The selling point of the room is it's picturesque view, right from the comfort of the bed that I temporarily called mine, overlooking the sea. It felt so good the first thing that comes in sight the moment you pry open your eyes after a restful night is the blue sky and when you sit up you are greeted with more pleasing sight of the greeneries and the ocean. What better way to start your day!
Pix was taken from the same angle but at different parts (and weather) of the day.

Day One's Dinner
Hubby ordered mussels on white wine cream sauce. It was the best-est we've tried. Not even the blue mussels I bought from Jasons was close to it.
Mine starter is the house speciality, seafood soup. Thumbs up for this! If I had a baugette I would have polished the plate squeaky clean like an Italian would ; )
Main dish of Sea Bass and Tenderloin in reduced red wine cherry sauce
Day Two's Dinner
Greek Salad
Seared Scallops on a bed of lentils
Rabbit and Figs
Lemon Creme Brulee. Never a fan of this dessert but it was well worth saving space for
Yours truly with Chris, the man and his great culinary skills that have fed many satisfied foodies that went back for more great meals.
