After all the tourists have packed their beach bags and headed back to the places they call home, the locals who ‘know stuff’ come out to play.
And, in the case of Autumn Temptations at Leura Park Estate, it’s for good reason.
Now in its fourth year, Autumn Temptations is a much-anticipated midweek concept at the ever-popular Leura Park Estate.
For just $25, patrons get to enjoy a sumptuous main meal accompanied by a glass of premium Leura Park wine of choice (or beer or soft drink).
While the menu is always evolving, to kick start the Temptation’s mojo, head chef Darius Sarkis has created the following delicious line up:
Mushroom, caramelised onion and fetta tart, pickled onion and confit tomato salad, balsamic glaze (v)
Pork & fennel meatballs, creamy potato mash, tomato sugu and crusty bread (gfo)
Lemon-pepper calamari with house slaw, chips and lemon aioli (gf,df)
Roquette, quinoa, roast pumpkin, chickpea and pepita salad with spiced chicken and a tahini lemon dressing (vgo, gf,df)
Patrons are spoiled for choice in the wine stakes too – Leura Park is a renowned producer of premium artisan wines, all grown and crafted onsite. The stellar stable of wines includes Sparkling Blanc de Blanc, Sparkling Pinot Chardonnay Rose’, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Rose’, Pinot Noir, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon.
There’s even a Moscato-style wine, Ms Flamingo & Associates, for those who like their wines a little sweeter.
It’s super popular for a reason – hearty and delicious don’t need to break the bank.
Autumn Temptations is on offer Thursday and Friday each week. It’s a super popular concept so best to book to avoid disappointment. Bookings via leuraparkestate.com.au or 5253 3180.
