Delicious comfort cuisine: Quality Hotel Elms

Autumn means it’s time to cosy-up at Fig restaurant at Quality Hotel Elms and enjoy its brand-new dinner menu.

Food and beverage services manager Ravi Naidu says, “We aim to keep our menu international bistro-style, so you’ll see Asian-inspired dishes, pasta and that timeless crowd-pleaser – classic steaks.”

Of course, the new dishes do need to pass exacting taste-testing by Ravi, all the chefs, the hotel’s general manager, and the rest of the food and beverage staff (it’s a tough job!).

As a little taster of what’s on offer… for a warm-up there’s a creamy prawn chowder or how about sweet and spicy baked pork belly… on to the main event with fish fillet baked in banana leaf with garden salad, Thai dressing, and lemon… or Chicken Pasanda, a beautiful almond-based, creamy curry.

“Team these delicious dishes with a South Island wine, and you’re in for a fantastic evening,” says Ravi.

Fig restaurant at Quality Hotel Elms, 456 Papanui Rd, is complemented by its inviting bar, completing the atmosphere with a fireplace in the cooler months; you won’t be able to tear yourself away.
