Queenstown’s Rees Hotel has announced its first True South Culinary Series Dinner for the year to be held on April 1, in partnership with Misha’s Vineyard Wines, one of New Zealand’s top 20 producers. Executive chef Ben Batterbury will bring his finely honed culinary skills to craft an eight-course degustation menu from the best of Central Otago’s produce, to complement a selection of eight exquisite wines from Misha’s Vineyard vintages.
Since 2009, Batterbury has been polishing his culinary repertoire for The Rees Hotel that includes French and English fusion recipes mingled with the flavours of New Zealand. With a love of using supreme quality ingredients and seasonal Southern produce he personally sources from local producers wherever possible.
