What if one of the Top End's most treasured delicacies is one you've yet to discover?

Let them take you on an exceptional dining experience where the distinctive flavours of Pearl Meat meet the culinary craft of il Piatto.

At the heart of the evening is Executive Chef Gaurav Gulati, who leads the culinary team at Mindil Beach Casino Resort. Bringing extensive hospitality experience, refined technique and a passion for exceptional produce, Gaurav brings his culinary vision to the table, transforming some of the Top End's finest ingredients into an experience designed to surprise and delight.

Your evening begins on the terrace at il Piatto, where sweeping views across the Arafura Sea and the Darwin sunset set the scene for Thienot Penfolds Rosé Champagne and canapés, including Pearl Meat Tartare with finger lime pearls and Polanco Baerii caviar.

Then, take your seat and discover the multi-course menu featuring NT mud crab, scallops, rock lobster, wild-caught Red Emperor, Kensington Pride mango and finger lime – each course offering a new expression of exceptional Australian produce, thoughtfully paired with wine.

From sunset on the terrace to the final course, experience an evening celebrating exceptional seafood and culinary craftsmanship in a truly memorable setting.
