Mange Tout is a French word for ‘small peas eaten in a pod’, also known as snow peas or directly translated the word means ‘eat everything’
The beautifully appointed restaurant gives full expression to the spectacular valley views, Mange Tout is a fine dining restaurant in every aspect. The room has an elegant Provencal feel that is matched with a skillfull touch and contemporary design.
Executive Chef Ryan Smith is at the helm at Mont Rochelle, and says that in another life, he would have been the quintessential artist. Inspired in particular by the vivid textures and colours of the universe as reflected in the work of renowned artist Jackson Pollack, Ryan enjoys expressing this spirit of creation in the presentation of each dish on the Mont Rochelle menu.
A taste of one of the delicious menu highlights at Mange Tout is the perfect indulgence. With choices such as Wild Mushroom Pancake with Chicken and Coriander Bolognaise and Tangy Pecan Nut Crust; Tiger Prawns Tempura with Sweet Corn Puree, Fried Quail’s Eggs, Truffle Shavings and Oil; and Butternut Veloute with Rabbit Cannelloni, Rabbit Jus and Cinnamon Milk - you’ll be hard-pressed to decide on just one. You’ll also find the chef’s choice of desserts such as Coffee Crème Brulee and Marmalade Ice-Cream or melt-in-the-mouth Chocolate Meringues irresistible.
The a la Carte menu offers a 3-, 4-, or 5-course menu, complemented by a selection of quality wines, imbued by the soothing tinkling of pianist Alfio Sartirana’s live music.
