Does a superb breakfast martini and an indulgent smoked beef hash with poached eggs, mustard greens and hollandaise sound like your way to kick off the weekend? If so, you’re in luck as they both star on Picnicka’s new weekend brunch menu, served 9am–2.30pm. It’s the perfect place for a catchup with friends — dishes can be shared and it caters for wide-ranging tastes, from granola, coconut yoghurt, roasted pineapple and Kaimai honey, to oysters, steak bavette, greens with lemon ricotta and smoked chilli, and a burger. Plus, there’s a stellar lemon tart to finish.
