WHITEWATER -- “Ain’t we got fun” - that old ditty keeps playing in my mind. We LOVE our job, especially when we discover a fantastic ‘new-to-us’ restaurant. We took a circuitous country ride on a beautiful evening which added to the magic when we arrived at Bingg’s Farmstead Restaurant on Twinkling Star Road just outside Whitewater.
If you are wondering about the Highway 12 construction, they welcome diners to call ahead for tips on getting there.
