Get to know the talented chefs and the inspirations behind Onemata at Park Hyatt Auckland
Auckland’s CBD treasury is Onemata restaurant, stationed in the luxury hotel, Park Hyatt Auckland. Their menu is curated with love, and their dishes crafted with the people and the land at the forefront, taking Aotearoa’s rich and abundant landscapes and plating them up for you to enjoy.
Head Chef Rob Hope-Ede and Executive Pastry Chef of Park Hyatt Auckland, Callum Liddicoat are the masterminds behind the menu, with dishes that took Auckland by storm from their beef carpaccio paired with beetroot, chipotle mayo and cured egg yolk, and their eggplant with babaganoush, truffle date syrup and herb salad. Onemata takes us on a culinary journey and Chef Rob and Pastry Chef Callum use their passions and enthusiasm for fresh produce, premium farm meats and supreme seafood to ensure nothing short of the freshest taste of New Zealand on each and every plate.
