Introducing our newest menu addition - Chargrilled Courgettes!

This is Chef's twist on Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine. Giant Chargrilled Courgettes served with in-house Chickpea Hummus, Pomegranate Seeds, Sweet Dates, Crispy Kale, Goats Cheese and organic Okiwi Passion Microgreens.

We recommend pairing this with a dry Rose or Sauvignon Blanc for our wine lovers, or a Kurious Oranj IPA. The Kurious Oranj, brewed by our very own Scotty Philip, is bursting with citrus flavour that perfectly brightens the dish without clashing with the bitterness of the crispy kale.

We're sure that this will be a new menu favourite!
