True South

In an impressive reimagining,this Art Deco garage is now an expansive beer hall with an on-site microbrewery and a vibrant,contemporary Argentine menu. High,exposed ceilings,swathes of planted greenery,tea-towel napkins and helpful,energetic staff give True South a breezy,feel-good vibe. Start with smaller,beer-snacky dishes such as empanadas,stuffed with a textured beef and olive filling and nubs of boiled egg,or moreish round,mini cheese buns. Mains might be a long,sticky brick of twice-cooked,crumbed pork belly with seasonal vegetables,perhaps white corn and pumpkin stew;or a revelatory black pudding salad,served warm,with salty brioche croutons and soft pieces of pudding. For a menu with a designated offal section,the'garden'section is robust. roasted carrots in smoked maple syrup studded with peanuts and coriander seed is a standout. Walnut-sized,sugar-dusted doughnuts on a swirl of house-made dulce de leche are an irresistible finish.
