After my rant about wagamama, I thought I’d dig up an old review that I did on another site to show that I can say nice things about restaurants 
The Ridge Restaurant (Farrer, ACT, Australia) looks fairly ordinary from the outside. It is located in a small suburban shopping centre, and the only real clue to what awaits inside are some slightly warped tables and benh seats outside.
Appearances can be deceiving - the food is simply the best I’ve had in months.
The Ridge uses all organic ingredients - and you can select from vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options. I’d just spent my first week on the CSIRO Healthy Living diet before going and I really appreciated that they were diet-friendly.
Like many other diners that night I started with the grilled king prawns - huge prawns, grilled in their shells until the meat was falling to pieces. This was served with a mild salsa verde and rice - the smell and taste were indescribable (well, almost indescribable - really very good!).
Main course was crisped duck breast with asian greens. In keeping with The Ridge’s healthy philosophy, this means a half duck breast and a huge bowl of salad (other optional sides included Potato Rosti, but I was doing my best). The duck was heavenly, and half a breast was quite enough.
For dessert I chose the fruit coupe - strawberry gelato with a slice of vanilla topped with cream. Superb.
