Ginger takes a cue from Australian cuisine with its vibrant and striking dishes but with a local twist. Its restaurant is encased within large glass walls that lets in plenty of sunlight, with an open space for a relaxing meal.

During the day, try its scallop, ikura, and prawn spaghettini, Ginger’s Burrata, and Bhangra Burger. For dinner, we suggest the harissa lamb cutlet, grilled market fish with lemon and capers, and chargrilled eggplant.
