Well done to Chef Ally Waddell and the Frida’s Field crew for gaining a hat in the SMH Good Food Guide 2025, for what they describe as their ‘small farm restaurant’ at Booyong Rd, Nashua. They harvest produce from their own farm, as well as using produce from their preferred local farmers at the Byron Farmers Market, with the addition of wild, foraged, and indigenous bush foods. The menus change every six weeks and they describe the food as ‘rustic, yet refined… honest, creative and full of flavour’. Plus, the restaurant has a great view across the farm, making it a great wedding and events venue.
