Slow-cooked
Winter is Calling…
New Menu Launches This Wednesday at Clink!
As the days grow shorter and the air turns crisp, there’s no better time to gather, celebrate, and savor the rich flavors of the season.
Here at Clink, we’ve been busy behind the scenes crafting a brand-new Winter Menu — and we can’t wait to share it with you.
Launching this Wednesday, our winter offering brings together the best of local, seasonal produce, designed to warm the soul and delight the palate. Expect bold flavors, comforting classics reimagined, and a few new surprises that will quickly become your cold-weather favorites.
From hearty mains that celebrate New Zealand’s finest meats and seafood, to vibrant, earthy vegetarian dishes, our new menu is all about flavor, freshness, and a little winter indulgence. And, of course, we’ve carefully curated wine pairings and cocktails to match — because at Clink, every meal deserves a perfect sip.
A few highlights you can look forward to:
✨ Rosemary and mustard rubbed Canterbury lamb loin with slow roasted lamb shoulder tortellini, smoked parsnip and potato puree, garlic mushroom, baby spinach red wine jus
✨ Crispy pork belly, braised in orange, soy and star anise, with celeriac pumpkin purée, baby spinach and a compressed apple and watercress salad
✨ Beef cheek croquettes, horseradish emulsion, parmesan crisp and pickled shallot
✨ Apple and pear crumble tart with toasted nuts, warm custard,
white chocolate and raspberry ice cream (yes, it’s as good as it sounds!)
Whether you’re joining us for a cozy midweek dinner, a lively evening with friends, or a special celebration, our new winter menu promises a dining experience that’s full of heart, warmth, and creativity.

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.
