Tucked away next to sister restaurant Roganic, Aulis is a test kitchen concept that allows guests to pull up a chair and gain an up-close experience with the back of house. Don't be put off by the "experimental" tag applied to many dishes here – there are some stunning insights to be gained, with the chance to get a first bite of winning new creations before they land on the main Roganic menu. Ingredients change with the seasons, with chefs on hand to guide diners through the dynamic tasting menus. Top-tier dishes have included truffle pudding caramelised in birch sap, stout vinegar and aged Corra Linn cheese; and local Wah Kee Farm stuffed pork with Tokyo turnips paired with a lemon thyme mead sauce.
