Wildseed (The Summerhouse)

This dish really lives up to the name, stacked high with smashed avo, smoked salmon, streaky bacon, tiger prawn, wild mushrooms, cherry tomatoes and crunchy seeds. Loved the mix of textures. It’s creamy, crisp, juicy and a little smoky. The sourdough was nicely toasted and held up well under all that goodness. Pea sprouts and yoghurt dressing added a fresh, tangy lift. Colourful, hearty and a good mix of wholesome flavours 》$28

Smoky-sweet BBQ pork tucked into a soft brioche bun with crunchy slaw and tangy charred cucumber. The curly fries added that crunch, while the fresh lettuce on the side kept things balanced. Messy but satisfying 》$29

The crust was soft with a bit of char, chewy in the middle and best eaten hot. Toppings were generous with tiger prawns, scallops, cherry tomatoes, plus a creamy mix of mozzarella and mascarpone that gave it a rich but balanced flavour.

The pesto dip in the middle adds freshness and herby notes that kept the pizza from feeling too heavy. Loved dunking the crust into it 》$30

The mushroom soup was earthy, smooth and comforting. Not too thick but still rich with flavour. Loved the drizzle of truffle oil for that extra depth and the toasted sourdough was perfect for dunking. Crisp edges, soft centre and great for soaking up every last bit 》$12

Crunchy batter, tender squid inside and that sambal mayo gave it a nice creamy heat. A squeeze of lemon brightened it up, making it easy to snack on and even easier to finish 》$18

Curly Fries ($16) for an average portion and not as crisp as we would have liked. Had much better elsewhere for a much lower price. Choice of 2 sauces - truffle mayo was nice but sambal mayo was off-putting. Chicken Leg ($28) was pathetically small and tasted average. Mash and greens were nice though. Floral Elixir ($15) was okay but light on the alcohol. Wanted to enjoy some Friday night music but apparently we came at the tail end of the first set and there was no live performance for the next 30min or so, which was disappointing.
