This Locally-Focused Bar Will Remind You There’s No Place Like Home
Our Land Is Alive is located at the base of the luxurious Cordis Hotel on Symonds Street and makes the best of everything locally sourced. This means its menu is seasonal and made up of sustainably caught local seafood and ethically farmed meats.
The menu doubles down on what can only be described as “Kiwi tucker” with small plates of Waiheke Oysters, Wairarapa Ribs, and Hawke’s Bay Meatballs on offer.
Larger meals include Hangi-style Roasted Pumpkin, sweet & sour slow cooked pork belly and South Island blue cod in Kiwi beer batter.
Finish up your meal with a superior chocolate option, a double chocolate caramel skillet cookie.
Of course, no bar menu would be complete without a few gin cocktails inspired by New Zealand’s beautiful landscapes. Here are our personal favs put together by their expert mixologists:
