The Food
Many argue that the Fishing and Hiking are secondary to the mouth-watering taste sensations that guests experience every day from Cedar Lodge's kitchen.
These gourmet delights are created by the Mother and Daughter team of Robyn and Juliet Fraser, and feature the very best "clean and green" produce New Zealand has to offer. You'll dine on world famous Lamb and Venison, fresh seafood from NZ's bountiful ocean, farm fresh vegetables, fruits freshly picked, and exotic desserts that are to die for!
Your evening dining might begin with New Zealand King Prawns - stir fried in lime oil and served on Udon noodles, topped with a red pepper sauce…followed by the main course - French Cut Venison Rack served rare on a bed of garlic mash with a redcurrant jus accompanied by a medley of fresh seasonal vegetables…and your delectable dessert - decadent, smooth as velvet, Lemon Crème served in a demi-tasse with coconut praline on the side.
As always, each meal is complemented with a selection of award winning New Zealand wines from legendary wineries such as Matua Valley, Villa Maria, Kim Crawford, Church Road, Akarua, and Two Paddocks.
