Winter Menu - with Conor Mertens
THIS WINTER AT ELEPHANT HILL
New Chef - New Menu - New Food Philosophy
Starting Friday 6th June
We’re thrilled to announce that award-winning Chef, Conor Mertens will be leading Elephant Hill’s culinary experience as Head Chef. Previously Head Chef at renowned establishments - Auckland’s two hatted Orphans Kitchen, and Hillside in Wellington. He has also worked in Michelin starred restaurants in Tokyo, founded his own Chimera restaurant, and having earned recognition as Hawke’s Bay Hospitality Awards 2022 Outstanding Chef of the Year and Cuisine’s 2019 One to Watch - Rising Talent, Mertens brings extraordinary expertise and experience to Elephant Hill.Conor’s menu will be inspired by the elemental concepts of Sea, Earth and Stone, which lies at the heart of Elephant Hill’s winemaking philosophy. Working with the best that each can offer – including pristine, sometimes overlooked, ingredients from the sea, seasonal vegetables and livestock from the earth, including from our own winery garden, and the depth and minerality drawn from stone. The goal is to create dishes that not only reflect the wines we make but also honour the whenua they come from.We can't wait to introduce to you, our new food and wine experience when you next book with us here at Elephant Hill.
Open 11-5pm from Friday - Sunday.
