Have a lazy lunch or a romantic dinner by candlelight and relax surrounded by natural wildlife in Pomodoras on Obi's enchanting garden surroundings. Chef Chris uses only the freshest local produce sourced primarily from local farmers, suppliers and the Maleny's Maple Street businesses, in his constantly evolving menu created from a "slow food" philosophy.

"Slow food" - fosters community awareness of food that is good, clean and fair the food we eat should taste good and should be good for us; where possible it should be grown and made in ways that respect animals, the environment and our health; and that the producers who grow or create it should be fairly rewarded for their endeavour.

Its been this commitment to our customers and food that has seen our regular customers rate us 4.7 out of 5 in the Montville Chambers of Commerce Range Restaurant awards, as well as getting us awarded 'best Contemporary Australian Restaurant on the Sunshine Coast' in this years Savour Australia Restaurant & Catering HOSTPLUS Awards for Excellence.

"Pomodoras is not trying to be anything it's not, but anything it does is done really well.

I like the synthesis." - Margie Fraser - The Courier-Mail Stay on Obi Are you planing that perfect few nights away to the stunning Sunshine Coast Hinterland?

A Superb Dining Experience with Spectacular Views of the Sunshine Coast.

Award-winning service, relaxed atmosphere, succulent Queensland seafood, fresh tropical flavours, extensive wine cellar - A Dining Experience to Remember.

What Our Diners had to say Finest Seafood Dining "The whole evening, from the moment we walked in the door, was first class. The food, the service, the location, the dĂŠcor, in fact, it seemed there was an invisible genie whose task it is to meet all customers at the door and stamp an invisible rubber stamp impression on their foreheads, stating "Spoil the rotten" and the staff certainly obliges!"

An amazing experience, Thank you "My husband surprised me with a date night a The Terrace Seafood Restaurant in Maleny.

The staff were friendly and on the ball. The food was amazing. We have eaten in some good restaurants around the world and The Terrace is right up there. The dessert was probably the best dessert we have ever eaten. The manager knew his wines and even drove us home after a few too many. Thank you we had a great night.

With magnificent views and a very romantic outlook at night, the best seafood experience in Qld, you need to make reservations."

Wonderful food, Fabulous Views "I had the Barramundi main which was just superb - the fillet combined with the Moreton Bay Bug and aromatic broth rice was perfect. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly. We will definitely be going back."

Pub

u

w: www.malenyhotel.com.au For the past 100 years, the Hotel Maleny has grown and changed with the Maleny community. The hotel was the community's meeting place for loggers, bullock drivers and farmers and their families to swap stories, debate local politics, conduct business, or simply share a drink, a meal and take time out from the trials and tribulations that belonged to living the life of a Maleny pioneer. Over the last 100 years, the ownership and management of the Hotel has passed though different hands, changed direction and with time and the merging of generations, the perception of the residents of their Hotel has changed.

The Maleny community has grown over the years to become home to a diverse range of people whose life experiences and opinions can differ from one another, be it culturally, socially or politically. The Hotel has always shrived to maintain its role and place within the community by quietly changing, growing with and endeavoring to meet the needs and expectations of the wider community and local organisations and charities who need a helping hand financially or physically.

Bistro Bunya Bistro Bunya is fast becoming known for its quality dining and relaxed atmosphere. Our new Bistro Manager will cater to your every need, whether it be a family function, work Christmas party or just a nice dinner out!

Our experienced chefs will ensure that your meal is cooked to perfection and you savor every last bite.. and leave you wanting more!
