Ballarat-born-and-bred Taite Radley, one of the final men in this year’s season, showed bachelorette Ali Oetjen's around his hometown as she came to visit.
The Melbourne bank manager said he was excited to take Ali around the region and show her how he grew up, and introduce her to his family.
When asked about the city’s best date spots, there was only one answer in his eyes – Lake Wendouree.
“You always have to start down at Lake Wendouree,” he said.
“I've spent a lot of time down there growing up, walking my dog around the lake so that's close to heart – that’s the first place I want to take Ali.”
A trip to a local pizzeria was also on the cards for the love-birds.
“For me I grew up around pizzas – my dad owned pizza shops – so taking Ali and showing her a part of my childhood (was) awesome.”
And – SPOILERS – did he go through to next week?
He did – while Charlie was sent home.
