Our w**e list? A love letter to the land and the hands that shape it.
​From the sun-kissed slopes of Tuscany and the classic terroir of France to the vibrant, bold vineyards of Australia, every bottle tells a story of passion, patience, and place. **e

We’ve been playing around with our Garlic Prawns pizza, and the latest version is here.

We’re keeping the base simple with fior di latte, letting the garlic prawns do their thing, then bringing in our house-made chilli oil for that extra kick. Creamy stracciatella adds a fresh, milky finish, balanced by the sweetness of cherry tomatoes and the delicate, herbaceous notes of fresh dill.

The finishing touch? Chilli hairs. Made from sun-dried red chillies, they bring a vibrant pop of colour, a subtle smoky flavour and a gentle warmth that builds without stealing the show.
Every element has its place, from the first look to the last bite

Sunday calls for a slow start, a wander through the markets, and a long lunch afterwards.

And what better time to try some of the new pasta dishes we’ve just added to the menu?
A few things have changed in the kitchen. Want to know what?

Marinara 2.0.
We kept the soul of a classic Marinara, then pushed it a little further.

Our tomato base gets a softer touch with confit garlic and oregano, then we bring in anchovies for that salty, savoury hit and finish it with generous spoonfuls of stracciatella from Vannella Cheese

A little sweet, a little salty, a little creamy.

Now on the menu at La Cucina + Bar, Port Douglas..

We are currently working on new dishes, and we just couldn't resist giving you a sneak peek of this one:

​Red claw risotto made with a rich bisque, lemon curd, stracciatella, and fresh dill.
Delicate on the palate, yet remarkably rich and intense in taste. Coming Soon!

A little bit of Italy, a little bit of Port Douglas, and a menu that changes with what the season brings.

At La Cucina + Bar, the table is where everything comes together. Fresh ideas, bold flavours, good w**e and the kind of food that makes you want to stay a little longer.
No two seasons look quite the same on the plate.

Behind the pass, our larder section is all about highlighting the raw beauty of local waters through two signature starters.
Our Coral trout crudo pairs fresh reef fish with citrusy ponzu and aromatic kaffir oil, cut through by smooth lemon curd and topped with caviar. Right alongside it, the Fraser Island spanner crab brings a softer, sweeter bite, layered gently to let the natural sweetness of the crab shine without being overpowered.
Two distinct profiles, one philosophy: premium Australian catch treated with Italian care.
Pull up a seat and start your night with the freshest ocean flavors.

See you tonight at La Cucina & Bar.

Whiting alla beccafico, our take on a Sicilian classic. Delicate whiting paired with fragrant lemon & garlic breadcrumbs, pistachio and sour onion, bringing a little texture, acidity and freshness to the dish.
Familiar flavours, but not quite as you remember them
