As the days grow longer and the evenings warmer, Gigi's welcomes a fresh expression of its generous, produce-led cooking. Bright flavours, beautiful ingredients and thoughtfully prepared dishes come together in a menu made for sharing, savouring and lingering a little longer.

It begins simply. Local marinated olives with fennel and orange, warm garlic and herb pizzettas, and small plates that invite conversation. Think creamy burrata with heirloom tomatoes and jalapeño gazpacho, or delicate kingfish crudo with compressed grapes, fermented chilli and a horseradish buttermilk dressing.

Pasta remains a favourite at Gigi's. From rich pork and fennel ragù with rigatoni to pillowy ricotta gnocchi with heirloom tomatoes, pine nut pesto and salted ricotta, each dish brings comfort, character and plenty of flavour to the table.

For something heartier, there's grilled lamb rump with cauliflower purée and rhubarb jam, slow-braised beef short rib with creamy pepper jus, and confit pork belly with apple and cider jus. Alongside them, vibrant vegetables, crisp salads and golden duck fat kipfler potatoes make it all the more tempting to order another plate for the table.

A good meal deserves time. Another glass of Mudgee wine, another story shared, and perhaps a little longer around the table than you first planned.

Generous food, good company and the simple pleasure of being together. Your place at the table.
