A Hunter Valley hidden culinary gem awaits discerning diners at Oak & Vine on Thompsons Road in Pokolbin. Nestled in Oaks Cypress Lakes Resort, this restaurant offers a ‘smart dining’ experience where you can enjoy a meal that quintessentially represents the Hunter Valley; dine alfresco and take in views of the pool and manicured grounds, or head indoors for a pre-dinner drink at the bar. Enjoy exclusive wines to pair with dishes given a Sri Lankan twist, such as half-shell scallops with tangy coconut crust and finger lime to start, or treacle and fennel glazed duck breast, tempered beetroot, feta and curry leaves. For a main to remember, delve into sous vide rack of lamb with papadum and curry leaf crust, eggplant moju and tamarind jus, accompanied by a glass of Margan Cabernet Sauvignon.
