MOA Tiki New Zealand Bar & Grill (#01-70/71)
The mood
-Big platters of hearty meats
-The place for MOA craft beers and NZ wines
-Live performances Tue to Sun evenings
As the name suggests, MOA Tiki New Zealand Bar & Grill carries a wide range of MOA craft beers as well as wines from Marlborough, Hawkes Bay and the Central Otago region. Highly recommended for beer enthusiasts is their MOA beer flight that lets you sample four out of the nine beers on tap. The food menu is just as extensive with over 50 mouth-watering dishes. Guzzle down a bottle of crisp MOA Methode pilsner while you sink your teeth into the fork tender BBQ pork ribs; the citrusy aroma and spicy undertone of the beer elevates the taste of the lightly spiced ribs. The Sirloin Cube, which is presented over sauteed mushrooms in cream and wine, makes for a great side to share with friends over a bottle of Pinot Noir. Swing by during 7.30-10.30pm from Tuesday to Sunday and take delight in MOA’s diversely curated live performances covering rock songs dating back to the 60s, oldies, as well as Top 40s. Daily 11.30am-12mn. Tel: 6636 3353
