Your Executive Chef

“From the friendly service to the presentation and ultimately the tastes were simply the best food experience we’ve enjoyed in the past year and to think it is still a “best kept secret”, not for long! Jim and Sarah J.

“it’s easy to see Darby has passion for what he prepares as our guests, who’ve eaten all over the world, said this is now their go to spot when visiting in New Zealand” Julie S.

“I came early to set up the table arrangements and stick spot prizes under the chairs but it took only a few minutes because the room was ready. Mira and her staff were very helpful, changing things a little to suit us. The dinner was magnificent and very generous despite some of our huge eaters. The desserts were to die for!! Please tell

the chef we loved his food!” Helen and Jack G.
