Fodor's Expert Review Tukka Restaurant
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
Earth-tone walls lined with Aboriginal artworks are a fitting backdrop for native-inspired Modern Australian cuisine, including a range of lean local meats like seared wallaby, kangaroo, emu, croc tail, and possum, deliciously fused with seasonal produce and native Australian herbs and spices. One excellent option is the entrée platter of cured meats and flavorful indigenous berries and flowers, all served on a rustic wooden camphor platter. The "Discovery" (A$75) and "Great Escape" (A$115) degustation menus let you taste your way through a curated selection of interesting and impeccably presented native delicacies, perfect for pairing with the restaurant's top vintages from boutique Australian wineries. You can also buy Tukka's own line of spices, cured meats, glazed fruits and sorbets, or ask for a "taste and talk" tour of the restaurants thriving garden.
