As Head Chef Axel Curtet-Latreille explains: “Our cuisine draws inspiration from the seasons, our Estate, Waiheke surroundings, and selected artisanal farmers and small producers from across Aotearoa. The top priorities for me are that produce is organically grown and ethically and sustainably sourced.” Discover a cuisine inspired by French traditions with a distinctly New Zealand twist.
