At 2086 metres above sea level, iconic Canterbury ski area Mt Hutt is to host a series of public dinner functions aptly named ‘Dinner with the Stars’.
By day the Mt Hutt restaurant serves hearty breakfasts and lunches to thousands of hungry skiers and boarders but now, recognizing the opportunity for a unique dining experience in Methven, ski area owner NZSki Limited will make the restaurant available on Friday evenings throughout winter.
Held in the cozy Huber’s Hutt, the diners can enjoy not only a hearty winter’s meal but also the dramatic starry skies and nighttime alpine atmosphere every Friday night, starting in July.
Ski Area Manager, David Wilson, believes ‘Dinner with the Stars’ at Mt Hutt is sure to be a highlight of any visitor’s ski holiday to Methven.
“Visiting the ski area at night will be such a unique experience for guests. A ‘Dinner with the Stars’ could be for a special occasion dinner for a group, a night out with a difference – or just a treat to spoil yourself.
“Guests will also enjoy a unique insight into what happens on the mountain at night - there is a surprising amount of activity going on. We’ll even be offering guests the chance to have a ride on one of our snow groomers or on a skidoo around the mountain. For kids there will be a chance to go for a sled ride with our huskies.”
Mt Hutt’s head chef is already busily preparing a variety of weekly menus with local wines to match.
Tickets for the evening begin at just NZ$80 for an Adult and $55 for kids and include transport from Methven to Mt Hutt return as well as dinner. Numbers are restricted to 80 people per night with bookings taken on a first in, first served basis.
