Minted pea and ham soup to start, a fresh roll on the side. Then orange and honey glazed chicken with savoury rice and roasted vegetables — bright, warm, and exactly what a Tuesday lunch should feel like. Coconut pavlova with pineapple, lemon curd and fresh berries closes things out.

We’re starting with a haloumi and corn bon bon, tomato and basil relish on the side. Then:
