Beneath Starry Skies and Gourmet Delights

No matter your food preference, dining in some places always hits differently. In New Zealand, it is not uncommon for people to constantly look for places that give them the experience of dining under the stars, and we understand it. That is why we’ve dedicated this piece to talking about the top places that will give you this experience.

Mt Cook Lakeside Retreat: Where Fine Dining Meets a Billion Stars

Dining here gives you a view of the Southern sky, where you can have a drink on a retractable roof. This gives you a view of the sky, stars, and beautiful constellations. And that isn’t even the best part. If you want a better view, you can use the 9-inch reflector telescope for close observation. And if you’re lucky, you’ll catch a glimpse of the Southern lights.

Luxury, Nature and Fine Cuisine – The Black Diamond at The Lindis

If you’ve not had fine dining at the Black Diamond, you have no idea of what you’re missing. The structure is magnificent, with a full-glass front structure, allowing you to get an uninterrupted view of the night sky. To make it even better, you will also get a good view of the valleys around the region.

Dark Sky Diner at Dark Sky Project, Lake Tekapo

From the name, you can already guess that this spot is especially for those who love the solitude of the night sky. It is at Lake Tekapo, and you get to see the clear night as well as the mountains.

If you are a fan of Glasshouse, you’ll love dinner at Amisfield.

You will also get to taste the work of Executive Chef Vaughan Mabee, the hands behind the grills in this kitchen.
