Culinary Philosophy
A Modern Brasserie
Our kitchen celebrates classic French brasserie traditions with a contemporary Australian twist, using locally sourced ingredients and time-honored techniques. The result is a menu that feels both familiar and distinctly of this place.
Head Chef's commitment to seasonal produce from Canberra region farmers means the menu evolves throughout the year. Menu items are prepared fresh daily, with an emphasis on flavor and presentation. The menu is designed to complement the sophisticated atmosphere of the casino lounge, whether you are joining us for a relaxed dinner or a longer evening.
