Gatherings

Since opening in 2017, this eatery has redefined local dining with a deep sense of community and mindfulness. Chef Alex Davies embodies a commitment to supporting farmers, fishers and artisans through an innovative and ever-evolving menu that champions organic ideals and sustainable practices. Diners are encouraged to embrace a shared style of eating, inviting them to “fill your table with food” and indulge in a variety of thoughtfully crafted fare. This intimate restaurant boasts an atmosphere that is reminiscent of being welcomed into the home of a talented chef. A standout item on the menu are the turnip cakes, inspired by traditional dim sum, served with a silken white onion soubise and an apple consommé. Delicate and fragrant, these cakes showcase Alex’s ability to transform vegetables into something extraordinary. Culinary heroes may be pickled mussels, crispy artichokes, farmed haku kingfish or celeriac that has been slowly cooked over charcoal, all of them treated with incredible respect and dressed in sensational sauces or ferments that are designed to elevate each showcase ingredient. Dessert options (such as ricotta doughnuts with vanilla custard and poached quince) celebrate the bounty of seasonal fruits. A curated selection of low-intervention wines from around the globe is on offer.
