Partial invite and partly not (RNIS paid for their own entrees)
As part of Good Food Month
Amarok Bar and Restaurant is in Southgate Shopping centre and it shares with the Chill on ice bar. They are open for lunch and dinner each day.
The atmosphere is warm and friendly. But the service was really slow. In fact a little too slow. But they let us sit where we like. They just opened in July this year so are still trying to find their feet. The manager was a lovely guy.
For starters we had the house made dips with bread ($9), the salt and pepper calamari ($10) and the kumera chips ($8). I have never had Kumera before so I was interested in trying. Loved it.
Also we loved the bread which was nice and warm and was two types- one flat and the other one was puffy. There was enough for all of us. The dips were well received.
Their speciality dish was a North American tuna with a peach salad. The dressing was a raspberry coulis. The salad has onions in it as well as Australian parsley to give it that crunch. This would make a lovely light lunch or a very late dinner for someone who wants to lose some weight.
The tuna was lovely and it was not too dry. It did however have too many bones in there. But I suppose they could not help this.
Rating: 16/20 do stay in the game.
