Celebrity chefs Al Brown, Sean Connolly and Nic Watt, along with Peter Gordon’s Head Chef Neil Brazier, will be presenting the best of Federal Street’s award-winning restaurants at Auckland Restaurant Month’s A Taste of Federal Street event on 26 August.
Each chef will prepare a course expressing their personal style and talents and expertly paired with a matching wine. The menu will only be revealed on the night with guests enjoying dishes reflecting each of SKYCITY’s signature restaurants: MASU, Depot, Gusto at the Grand and The Sugar Club. Last year’s event sold out within 48 hours and this year’s event is sure to impress.
The exclusive event will be hosted in Federal Street’s multi award-winning restaurant MASU by Nic Watt which continues to impress diners and food critics alike. Seats are limited and tickets are $220 per person. MASU was recently awarded two hats in the 2015 Cuisine Magazine Good Food Awards, with Depot also being awarded one hat. Depot also took out the Supreme Award in the Metro Peugeot Restaurant of the Year 2015 and all four restaurants were listed in Metro Magazine’s Top 50 Restaurant list for 2015.
