Blue Poles Cafe & Gallery Run

19 September 2013 / Words by Jodie Carty

The Mid North Coast Chapter met at Port Macquarie for a drive on Saturday 14 September 2013. We had five cars in total including two guest vehicles joining us for our drive to Comboyne. The weather started out a little dubious however by the time we stopped in Wauchope, the tops came down and off we went.

We stopped for coffee and a spot of (unplanned) shopping at the Comboyne Community Store – white chocolate covered macadamia nuts were the most popular item, along with Mulberry jam and Blueberry chutney!

We took a leisurely cruise back down the mountain and stopped at Blue Poles in Byabarra for lunch. The menu was so tempting, with fresh homemade pasta and local products. So full, no one could fit in dessert (even a delicious sounding panna cotta). It was a glorious day and we soaked up the sun and camaraderie for a couple of hours before heading home.

Looking forward to our next drive on Saturday 12 October to Long Flat via Telegraph Point and Rollands Plains.
