One of Queensland's top dining destinations (book well ahead for weekends), Spirit House evokes the deep jungles of Southeast Asia with its moody tropical setting and sophisticated Thai-inspired menu. Savour honey and clove-spiced chicken with cashew puree and papaya salad, or whole crispy fish with chilli tamarind sauce.
Its casual Hong Sa Bar serves impressive cocktails and sharing platters, and the restaurant also runs a cooking school (four-hour classes from $150). Yandina is 11km south of Eumundi.
