Right now, we’re in Will’s chapter. Many will remember him as Head Chef during one of Arthur’s most defining eras and when we opened Fior, he was there with us, helping shape what it has become. He’s now at Three Blue Ducks in Burradoo, but his influence has stayed with us.
For a short time, his snacks return to the menu. What sits alongside them on the final menu carries the same thread. A focus on produce. Everything else follows.
Coral trout with native curry. A sauce built over days, layered with native ingredients and macadamia, paired with one of Australia’s finest fish. Lamb saddle, revisited many times, always grounded in technique and heroing the ingredient. Most importantly, the Butternut Pumpkin Tart, first seen years ago. It was called “too sweet” at the time. We’ve always disagreed. New season pumpkin is meant to taste like this, early, bright, and full of natural sweetness before it settles.
It felt right to have him have a small say in this final menu. If you’ve met Will, you’ll understand why.
