Norfolk Blue

The old Homestead Restaurant reopened for business on 6th January 2010 with a new look and feel as Norfolk Blue Restaurant, Grill and Bar and is the realization of nearly 5 years of planning and 12 months of refurbishment. The goal being to showcase the quality of beef produced on 100 Acre Farm by Jap and Robyn Menghetti. Around 8 years ago Robyn’s fascination with some of the local cattle which had distinct blue/grey appearance inspired her to commence an acquisition program for breeding. Her research revealed from various locals (including Bubby Evans) that they were a distinct heritage herd which had evolved over many years through a combination of the mainstream breeds on the Island including Shorthorn, Angus, Hereford, Red Devon, Friesian, Murray Grey and quite possibly others. Approximately 5 years ago, the breeding program commenced to produce what is today, Norfolk’s own unique breed of cattle called “Norfolk Blue”.
