William Angliss Institute

In April I went to William Angliss Institute for lunch during their 'Great Chefs' Program. Angliss is a training college in Melbourne specialising in hospitality and tourism. The college has a training restaurant where hospitality students learn silver service. The prices are very reasonable and the food and service was fantastic. The 'Great Chef' the day we went was Brendan McQueen of Matteo's in Nth Fitzroy.

Yum.
