SHAAN A PUNJAB HAVELI
Authentic vegetarian North Indian food!
Located on the Sydney road this place is best accessed by car given the location. Free parking available for about 10-12 cars.
It might be a bit difficult to find the correct entrance so look out.
The staff are courteous and service focused.
Note that there is no menu or table service. You would have to order at the Sales desk and quote your table number, to settle the bill at the end.
The order arrived fairly quickly and was served well. There are options of good available that aren't listed in the menu, so better ask for specials at the desk when you order.
Parents with kids: There is ample space next to dining so it would help young kids get some space to enjoy. Not all Menu items may suit those kids younger than 5 Yrs, so plan your order by looking at their website.
Highly recommended place for vegetarians.

Emerald Lake Wading Pool
Lovely place for picnic and aqua biking.
Getting there:
The obvious and easy option is to drive here, but the more interesting option is the Puffing Billy train. If you are taking the train it is advisable to get there early and take the return train later.
What to do and services:
This pristine park is a great place for picnic. There is a restaurant near the Puffing Billy station. On days when they are open you can do Aqua Biking for a very reasonable cost. Taking a walk around the lake is a great experience too.
Parents with kids:
There are play areas, trails not far away from the water body. Given the restaurant services are usually available on weekends and holidays you better have food and water handy. Under shade picnic areas need prior booking sometimes, so if the mercury is high make sure you are prepared.

P G Sadler Reserve
The reserve:
The reserve covers children's play area and Hudson Bay beach. Usually not very crowded, this place is a very good weekend getaway if you have limited time. The beach has great views for walkers.
What can you do here?
The water isn't only waist deep (for an average adult) for a long way into the bay and while it is too cold for getting wet in winters, it definitely is fun during summer's.
On a cool windy day, thanks to the sparse crowds you can fly kites or play on the beach sand.
The waters are not good for surfing nor they produce big waves, but that are very clear and I have seen people snorkeling here. Fishing is another popular pastime for people visiting.
Other interesting places nearby:
Science works museum, Williamstown
Parking:
Paid parking available from 4$ per hour right at the beach, while free parking is also available for up to 2P on approaching roads.
