Great food in one of Queenstown’s most stylish restaurants just got more comprehensive with a range of new menus from Botswana Butchery, including the Express Experience Lunch.
The celebrated eatery has launched its mouthwatering winter menus, including a lunchtime Express Menu for only $15.
Located in the beautifully-restored Archers Cottage in Queenstown’s historic precinct, with spectacular lake views, Botswana Butchery is renowned for its unique dining experience under the steady hand of Executive Chef and co-owner Leungo Lippe (pronounced Luno Lippy).
And now the emphasis on fun, innovative dining, which Leungo and his staff have honed to a fine art, continues with a playful and interesting menu to suit every palate and budget.
“The restaurant may look quite formal, with its gorgeous colourways, luxurious velvet chairs and stylish ambience, and we’re certainly proud of our great service, but there’s nothing stuffy about the food we serve,” he said.
“We want people to come in and enjoy the atmosphere, drink in the views, get toasty in front of the fire, and really relax and enjoy the vibe. And the feedback we’ve had so far is that we’ve hit the nail on the head with the new $15 Express Menu allowing diners to enjoy the full Botswana experience but with a condensed, faster service menu that includes winter warmers such as ‘Arrogant’ French onion soup, Butchery Bangers & Mash and Botswana Bourguignon Pie.”
Leungo’s focus is on fine cut meats as well as wild and organic foods, so the introduction of the winter lunchtime Express Menu has provided him with the culinary challenges he enjoys.
Alongside the lunchtime Express Menu, Leungo has developed a range of other lunchtime dishes for the full a la carte menu, including coconut, lemongrass and lime mussels, and a nut brown parmesan and herb gnocchi.
The evening menu is painted with even more mouthwatering dishes, such as braised shoulder of Cardrona lamb, wood-grilled crayfish and roasted duck leg. For dessert, there are classics such as crème brulée, as well as a tantalising pineapple tarte tatin.
Botswana Butchery is open for lunch and dinner seven days a week, between 11am and 11pm (last orders will be taken as late as 11pm). Reservations are recommended – call 03 442 6994 or e-mail botswana@goodbars.co.nz
