Darley’s Seasonal Menu
Growing up on the family farm beside the banks of the Hawkesbury in NSW, Executive Chef, Hugh Whitehouse’s respect for fresh, local produce was developed at a young age and his childhood memories of milking cows before school and picking fresh fruits from the orchard after, taught him the importance of respecting the ingredients that a change of season organically brings to nature’s table.
For example earthy celery heart puree and fennel veloute balance delicate tortellini of prawn and spanner crab for entrée while for main course, a robust rare-roasted venison from Mandagery Creek Farm stands strong against a myriad of seasonal ingredients including celeriac, rappe greens, pearl barley, green peppercorns and horseradish.
A Degustation Menu costs $130 per person and an additional $65 for matching wines. Bon appetite!
