Kangaroo Island visitors will once again dine amongst the dappled light of the 100-year-old Fig Tree’s boughs after the venue closed to the public in 2018 when a localised fire partially burnt the property.
Over Gastronomo’s five-month season, guests will begin their culinary experience with a welcome cocktail beside the Mulberry Tree or in the property’s rustic shearing shed, before dining under the gnarled limbs and sun-dappled chambers of The Enchanted Fig Tree.
Here diners will be treated to any number from 1000-plus combinations of multi-course meals inspired from the sea, land, and earth, heroing local produce and created by a range of guest chefs, including the likes of Simon Bryant (Tasting Australia Director), Duncan Welgemoed (Africola) and Emma McCaskill (ex The Pot & Magill Estate Restaurant). While renowned wine critic, Nick Stock, will curate a 100% Kangaroo Island wine list to delight the palate.
According to Nick Hannaford, Director, LifeTime Private Retreats, “Although Gastronomo is inspired by South Australia’s stunning locations and the sharing of great food and wine, it’s not just about what a customer tastes and sees, (or shares on Instagram!) It’s how they feel or what they remember that counts.” Says Hannaford.
Lunch at The Enchanted Fig Tree is from 12.30pm to 3.30pm and is $135 per person including a Kangaroo Island Spirit welcome cocktail. Lunch will be available six days a week, closed Tuesdays and operate from 11 December 2020 to 30 April 2021.
Dinner at The Enchanted Fig Tree is from 7.30pm to 10.30pm and is $135 per person during January 2021.
