Kingfish, Scampi.

Chef and restaurateur Sid Sahrawat reveals a bold new menu direction for his award-winning fine dining establishment, Sidart, located in the heart of the city of Auckland, New Zealand.
The reinvented menu continues to showcase best of New Zealand’s produce, but in a contemporary Indian format that is a more formal and precise execution of the cuisine currently offered at the popular sister restaurant, Cassia.

Inspired by the diversity of India’s regional cuisines, spices and flavours, the menu elegantly fuses locally sourced produce, with Sahrawat’s attention to detail evident at every turn. His love for his hometown and his childhood memories serve as an influence in his latest menu evolution.

The new dishes are imbued with the creative, mouth-watering flair diners have come to expect from Sahrawat’s kitchen and team of talented chefs. The new menu offering includes (but is not limited to) kingfish, scampi, cultured cream, daikon; hapuka, mustard seeds, tamarind, almond; pork jowl, butternut, wild garlic, Goan flavours and for a sweet finish, green apple, saffron, dill, passionfruit.

Sahrawat says, “The evolution at Sidart reflects my identity as a chef, the journey growing up in India to starting my first restaurant Sidart nine years back. Its new reincarnation showcases my metamorphosis from an Indian chef cooking kiwi food to a kiwi chef who incorporates his love for Indian flavours with his passion for Kiwi produce.”
Sid combines his famous revolutionary skills and comprehensive precision to create art on a plate with the menu depending upon the seasons and availability from all of New Zealand’s sourced produce. He is extremely passionate in his kitchen to the point of obsession and has worked hard to make the Sidart experience
accessible and personal for diners.
