  6. Port Albert General Store

    This café/gallery in the 1856 general store has fast attracted a following. People travel a long way for the (limited) gourmet menu complemented with Gippsland wines (try the cheese platter with crusty bread, marinated olives and fig relish,). The Asian-influenced gallery has unexpected treasures such as Chinese peasant chairs and wooden croaking frogs, while the shop sells an eclectic range of books and gourmet local produce.
