Long a favourite among CBD folk looking for a good lunch, Mag’s Wine Kitchen offers contemporary French bistro fare with sophisticated service and ambience that manages to be homey, and not in the least bit stuffy. A massive wine room calls invitingly as you sit down to order, so you may as well crack open a bottle and make an event of the visit.

The superb plates certainly demand some vino as accompaniment: think starters of bouncy Hokkaido Scallops, or salmon sashimi done up with lashings of yuzu and sesame dressing. For an extra classic touch, spread some croutes with a smearing of Foie Gras Terrine, perfect with a semi-dry white wine as you wait for your mains. More classic fare on the plats principaux, from Australian Beef Tenderloin given the simple salt and jus treatment, to an elegant risotto of asparagus and seared Boston lobster, sweet, buttery, and indulgent. Dessert is a refined affair of peaches poached in fragrant amaretto, followed by a platter of French cheeses to elongate the meal alongside good conversation and more wine. The French do it right, and this is an invitation to indulge, and turn a simple meal into a luxurious event. (May 2017)
