Great dining experience. We opted for the seasonal tasting menu (6 dishes, all at the table need to select the option). They accommodated a slight change to one of the dishes happily.

Tasmania trip (last minute as usual due to ever changing covid restrictions 🤦🤣). Dinner at @institutpolairetasmania - amazing food with lots of Asian ingredients/flavours, and a great drinks selection (delicious cocktails!). Service was excellent - efficient and friendly. . Brioche bun, miso butter, laver oil: the bread was super soft as you'd expect from a brioche. The miso butter was very tasty! . Sea urchin, tamago, creme fraiche: I'm not normally a huge fan of sea urchin, but this was excellent. I think the tamago and the creme fraiche softened the sea urchin flavour and texture for me. Excellent dish. . Scallop sashimi, yuzu, white soy, sesame, lovage: these scallops were absolutely fantastic! I loved it 😍. . Rock lobster cocktail (+99$): we normally enjoy Chinese style lobster much more than western style, but this lobster was so good! Especially half of it is a whole piece of lobster meat, and the other half was made into a lobster salad. Very nicely done. Definitely it's something you should get if you're looking to splurge a little bit 😜😜😜. . Burrata, apricot, mirin, coriander seed: lovely soft and gooey burrata, which worked really well with the tartness and sweetness of the apricot. . Homemade pasta: saffron handkerchief pasta, walnut butter, duck egg yolk. The pasta was nicely done. The duck egg yolk with the walnut butter was gloriously creamy and delicious! Super yummy 😋😋😋. . Cape Grim eye fillet, pink eye, black garlic, with radicchio salad. This beef was perfectly cooked - rare and super tender. The flavours were nice and bold with the black garlic sauce. Amazing! The mashed potatoes was like a whipped texture - it was so soft and light 😮😮! Never had anything like that before. . Dessert: Leatherwood honey panna cotta, spiced cherry. The panna cotta was very soft, and the flavour was delicate. The cherries were a nice touch. Nice way to end the meal 😍.
