Christmas functions at Clink

So you’ve been given the task to organise this years Christmas party… It really doesn’t need to be a chore, in fact we can help make it fun and more importantly easy for you!

TIP #1 – Set your date NOW!

We know it seems way too early BUT if your thinking a Friday or Saturday night before Christmas or you want to do something a bit special this year to really show your team that you value everything they’ve done, then set the date and book the venue now and leave the finer details to later!

Here at Clink we love to host a good function and have some great ideas to share with you on how to make this years party shine!

Whether it’s a lunch, a cocktail and canapes affair or a sit down sumptious meal with a gorgeous table setting, chat to us about what you would like to do this year. All our functions are tailor made to suit your requirements and we have lots of great ideas to share with you to help your planning.

We’ll be putting up new set menus, beverage packages and entertainment ideas over the coming weeks so keep an eye out on our website or follow us on

Vegan Pizzas have arrived at Clink

#twoforone

The kitchen team are working on some new menu items that will be great for people looking for a vegan alternative. With a reasonably small menu we’ve always struggled on how to offer some of our vegan options that we have in our kitchen, so as we head into our new menu planning for Autumn/ Winter 2020 this is something we are keen to explore.

The first step was easy really. Clink does great pizzas and we have a fantastic vegetarian pizza that with just modifying the cheese to a vegan alternative will finally open up this section of the menu to everyone. We already have gluten free bases available and 2 vegetarian pizzas and now we can offer a Vegan Pizza!

So pop down and give our new VEGAN pizza a go!

THE SHANK – a play on prison jargon not the lamb kind with roast sweet potato, spinach, caramelised onion and spiced cauliflower

And don’t forget we have our two for one pizza deal every Thursday before 8pm, dine in only!

Graze at Clink Restaurant in Sumner Village!

Early dinner special

As the nights start to cool and the lights are getting turned on earlier, we decided it was time for an early dinner special. Graze is available from 5pm till 7pm Monday to Wednesday. We think our small plates are pretty special and the sides are scrumptious so add them all together and you can graze on a little feast! Bookings are recommended – so head over to our BOOKINGS page to secure your table! 

 

Falling into Autumn

The nights and mornings are just getting tinged with darkness and it makes me start to think about flavours and textures that make the cooler seasons so wonderful.

We were really luck to get the opportunity to taste Te Mata Estate’s 2015 vintage at The George Hotel last week.

Wow what a great vintage and while many of the wines are ready to be enjoyed now, ‘The Coleraine’ will cellar well for many years to come. Look out for these wines on the new wine list that will be launching mid April. Over the coming weeks we will be tasting some wines on Friday’s from 6pm, a little taste as you arrive to gather some feedback. This week we start with Mt. Beautiful Winery from North Canterbury. By producing elegant, certified-sustainable, estate-grown wines, they have found a way to capsure in the bottle, the climate and the richness of the land.

Wines aren’t the only think getting a makeover – the cocktail list goes moody, the beers less fruity and the kitchen are busy developing some new dishes in the kitchen. Some of these will be getting a try out on the trust the chef menu which as many of you know is a fabulous, relaxed and interesting way to dine at Clink.

We’re not quite ready for the warm temperatures of Summer to be over however the dewy morning grass is getting us thinking about food and beverages that reflect the change in the air.

Personally I LOVE change of seasons to get inspired and with places like Pinterest and Instagram feeding our minds with beautiful pictures and endless ideas it’s easy to get excited. Pop over and have a look at what’s feeding the Clink Teams imagination.
