Escape the everyday grind with an organic wine at Sumi Open Kitchen on Sunshine Beach Road in Noosa Heads. As this Japanese inspired charcoal grill restaurant’s name suggests, Sumi has nothing to hide and welcomes guests with clean lines, comfort and functionality, in sleek surrounds of pale wood, black furniture and ambient down lights. Choose from a weekly changing set course menu matched with wine, or sip a glass of sake from a range featuring organic Black Market, perhaps starting with celeriac soup or cured pink snapper; before mains such as grilled black Angus rump, carrot and Jerusalem artichoke kinpira, grilled shallots and red miso sauce. For an indulgent finish, try quince and raspberry trifle and ginger crumb, or white chocolate parfait, coconut gel, fresh berries and lime curd.
