BISTRO SIXTEEN82

BEST FOR A rendezvous with friends and family at a stylish cellar-door bistro. FOOD Chef Kerry Kilpin has a flair for showcasing fresh seasonal produce in exquisite compositions that pop with flavour. The breakfasts are fabulous; signature eggs Benedict are served with a rich hollandaise. An Asian twist threads through the lunch menu, from tempura prawns with pineapple salsa to beef tataki with truffled corn, chilli and sesame. Carnivores will love the slow-cooked signature dishes like pork belly and braised lamb neck. A vegetarian menu offers warm quinoa salad, risotto, and mushroom-and-gorgonzola gnocchi. Leave room for the bread-and-butter pudding. DRINKS Enjoy a glass of bubbly at the chic champagne bar. The estate’s wines can be paired with each dish at the table at low mark-ups. SERVICE Warm and welcoming, with great attention to detail. AMBIENCE Casual and relaxed, there’s a buzz in this contemporary space with its landscaped terrace and vineyard views. (GH)
