Two British chefs opened Arc in Wanaka to bring their experience and creativity to the dining table. Head to the minimalist room for a 4- or 6-course set menu that changes monthly. The modern New Zealand fare features a deftly crafted, seasonal lineup: their beer and spelt loaf, impresses with nutty and savoury notes, while umami butter and malt caramel add extra flavours. For drinks and snacks, head to the outdoor area.
