The property is on the west end of the island, which has some of the best hikes and walks - and a few other nice vineyards we visited like Cable Bay.
We can't get enough of the local Te Matuku oysters (and champagne) followed by some Atlantic king scallops with edamame, tete de cochon croquette, citrus tapioca and black quinoa. I also had tuna Ika Mata, with watermelon, coconut, yuzu and coriander. Then we had our main courses - sparing you the photos, but I had a beautiful fresh variation on a Caesar salad with white anchovies, grana padano, quail egg, chicken and brioche; John had a shellfish laksa with vanilla, lemon, black dauphine. Desert was a deconstructed carrot cake, with cream cheese, walnuts, salted caramel ice cream. Everything was outstanding!
What a picture! It reminds me somewhat of an artist's rendering. Everything looks just so perfect!
ReplyDeleteIt is a beautiful place and the food was a work of art. Better yet, it was one of the best meals I have had. Everything was perfect, including my date❤️
