EAT – Taste of Trinity
We begin with the iconic Rēwana bread, a traditional Māori sourdough that sets the stage for an unforgettable dining experience.
As the appetizer, savor the Seafood Trinity—a symphony of flavors featuring a confit of conga eel, smoked hake, and kina-cooked cream, accompanied by a delightful pikopiko and wakame garnish.
For the main course enjoy tender braised lamb flap, complemented by creamy kūmara mash, delightful blue cheese corn, and refreshing baby watercress greens. A light kawakawa drizzle adds a tantalizing finish to this exquisite dish.
Finally, indulge your sweet tooth with a delectable dessert. Our Koko brownie, rich in flavor and texture, is paired with a luxurious Beauregard kūmara cream, creating a harmonious blend of sweet and creamy notes that will leave you wanting more.
DRINK – Manawa Ora
A captivating cocktail that beautifully blends flavors inspired by Aotearoa's natural wonders. This refreshing libation combines the essence of kūmarahou, rose, and jasmine green tea, enhanced with the delightful sweetness of kawakawa syrup, and The National Distillery Company's New Zealand Native gin adds a distinct botanical note.
Whether you're seeking a sophisticated aperitif or a captivating drink to toast with, the Manawa Ora promises to deliver a harmonious blend of flavors that will leave you refreshed and intrigued
Also a beer.
