For a delicious dinner this summer, you can’t go past the Rebellion Bar & Grill.
Executive chef Shibu Madathil has created a new summer menu that showcases the best of fresh seasonal ingredients with the finesse that Rebellion diners have come to know and love.
The entree of kingfish ceviche ($19) is delicate and light – everything you want in a summer dish – served with a sweet ginger and French shallot dressing and garlic chives.
Zucchini flowers, a classic dish and one of the most popular entrees at the restaurant, is a flavoursome combination of zucchini, potato, coriander, lemon and rocket ($18) inside a crunchy tempura batter.
The glazed barbecue pork scotch fillet ($19.50) is a reimagining of a summer’s barbecue in a restaurant entree, well balanced with pickled cucumber and burnt apple puree.
The new wine menu has been carefully selected and includes a delicious French rose from Aix, perfect for a warm summer’s day, and a fruity and refreshing sauvignon blanc from New Zealand winemakers Dog Point.
Red lovers will enjoy artisan Victorian winemakers Save Our Souls’ 2015 sangiovese, which pairs well with the main of soft, pillowy dumplings of handmade potato gnocchi served with butter pumpkin, sage, pine nuts and currants ($26).
Also on the new mains menu is tajima wagyu sirloin, served Japanese-style with a creamy onion soubise sauce, mushrooms and a truffle balsamic glaze ($42).
The catch of the day was a beautiful piece of cod, served with a spicy cauliflower and grapes and a pistachio tarragon vinaigrette ($36).
Make sure to leave room for dessert, because the summer offerings are as delicious as they look.
The flourless coconut and mango savarin ($16) is a summery combination of creamy coconut and tangy mango for a light and airy cake, while the indulgent salted caramel and popcorn log ($16) is a sweet tooth’s delight.
