There’s A New Hero On The Menu For Adelaide Degustations

Windy Point has delivered something totally unique, and bold, and we loved it.

Degustations are basically the best thing going. It’s the ultimate culinary experience, where you (the hungry punter) roll up to a (usually fancy) restaurant, and are treated to an endless parade of dishes (usually around 8), each designed to compliment the next. If you’re lucky, you’ve chosen the degustation that is matched to wines, and hey bingo, your palate is in heaven, your stomach is convinced you may never need to eat again, and your stretchy pants are thanking you for the sensible fashion choice you made that night.

We’ve tried many a degustation here at Glam (yes we’re extremely privileged) but at last night’s menu launch at Windy Point, we were actually surprised. We were presented with something totally unique, and bold, and we loved it.

The gorgeous set up at last night’s media dinner

Windy Point Vegetable Degustation - Adelaide, South AustraliaExecutive Chef & General Manager Justin Miles has pulled together an incredible culinary experience, highlighting the best in local, seasonal produce – and has done it all without meat.

Rather than coining it a vegetarian degustation however, which pushes it towards, well, vegetarians, this menu is titled the Vegetable Degustation – turning an incredibly diverse array of fresh foods from AMJ Produce, into the heroes of the plate.

And for those of us meat lovers out there, it didn’t skip a beat in delivering a satisfying, complex meal, that didn’t leave us wanting. This is for anyone who loves food, and wants to experience the best the SA has to offer.

Oh and the sunsets from this place are incredible. Our city is breathtaking from on high.

The 7-course Vegetable Degustation is $115 without wine, or $185 with. There is also a vegan option available.
