Room Six in Port Campbell - The Big Burger and Affogato.

We are back in Perth for a couple of days before we set off on the next mini trip so not much time to cram in a few entries about the food we ate on the last 2 week road trip, but enough to get some of it out anyway! I have to say there were some mediocre meals, some down right awful ones and some phenomenal ones too to balance it out!

Along the Great Ocean Road where we were eating lots of picnic lunches in the car and cooking in little kichenettes etc, we came into a small town called Port Campbell and decided we were going to eat for lunch. We wandered the street, as that is all there is really, and decided on this place because they had cheap specials on the board outside. It was nothing inside that we were expecting, in fact it had a great appearance, wooden half walls, nice art and while I ordered off the special menu that had gotten us there in the first place, hubby ordered the burger off the regular menu and didn't need to eat for a day after! It was enormous!



It came with seasoned wedges and sour cream/sweet chilli dip. Every part of the burger was top quality, the meat patty filled the entire bun rather than the small island you sometimes get in a sea of bun. At one point he took his knife and fork to cut off and eat the bacon and egg that was hanging out the side and it took several bites to get through the cross section of it! I was hugely impressed with the appearance and when I tried it the patty was very good. For a generally non burger fan I can see why someone would love them when I saw this, and I would highly, highly recommend going there if only for this burger! The great value specials menu is a great reason to go and the regular menu offers a great selection and if it is anything like the food we sampled you won't be disappointed.

To round things off we ordered an Affogato, the vanilla bean ice cream and the Espresso were great quality too!
