We know the black swans tend to steal the spotlight, but Lake Wendouree is home to plenty of feathered characters.

Do you have a favourite bird that frolics around the lake?
Let us know. And if you've snapped a great photo, we'd love to see that too.

Feeling the cold? We've got a solution.

🍜 Tonkotsu Ramen loaded with Japanese soba noodles, rich chicken broth, chashu pork belly, sweet corn, bok choy, crispy nori and a marinated egg.

It's warm, comforting and exactly the sort of thing you feel like when Ballarat decides winter has properly arrived.

You'll find it on the specials while it lasts.

According to our Venue Manager, we may as well throw out the rest of the menu when the Lamb Shank is on special. It's that popular. 😆

While that might be a slight exaggeration...it's hard to argue when you can smell lamb shanks coming from the kitchen.

Served with crushed potatoes, seasonal vegetables and a rich, velvety jus, it's the kind of meal that reminds you why some classics never go out of style.

Meet Paddy. 👋 He's just arrived with tomorrow afternoon sorted for one lucky winner.

A few mates around the barbecue. Something cold in hand. And no last-minute dash to the butcher.

We've teamed up with H.LAB Gym for tonight's meat raffle, raising funds for the 4EK Meningococcal Awareness Foundation, with this beauty of a meat tray packed full of quality cuts from our local friends at Davis Wholesale Meats.

If you're stopping by for a drink or settling in for dinner, grab a ticket and stick around for the draw.

See you tonight at The Lakey.🥩🍻❤️
