Textures that crunch, aromas to make your mouth water, flavours that make you vocal (argh) & aesthetics you’ll want to share to your story.Did someone say drinks?

Had the set menu with the matched wines which was delicious. The highlight of the night was the thoughtfulness in the wine selection and some really interesting and diverse flavours. We loved chatting with the sommelier about the wines and he seemed to know his stuff and love his job.

Tried Nonbei for the first time tonight for my belated birthday dinner. Got the $95 Deluxe Buffet and was not disappointed. Now that I’ve done it once and have a better idea of portion sizes and timing, I’ll get better at making the most of our 1.5hr sitting. The sides were good, the meat was excellent. Will do again. Would recommend.
