Le Pot-Au-Feu Restaurant

Le Pot-Au-Feu is a small, French Restaurant with a warm romantic atmosphere in the heart of Christchurch City, in New Zealand.

At Le Pot-Au-Feu Restaurant I am serving fresh, classical French cuisine with Swiss influences.

I trained in Switzerland at the well known "Restaurant Steinegg" in Altendorf - CH; where apprentice chefs learn the history and recipes of the classic French cuisine. I have 19 years experience in my trade and I am lucky to do what I love every day of the week. 

Eleven years ago I opened Le Pot-Au-Feu with a vision to serve fresh, classical French & Swiss fare.

"All my meals are prepared and cooked on arrival of your order to ensure the freshness and quality of each product used and in the dish you order itself."

What I Do

" I serve classic French cuisine with a touch of modern, Swiss ingenuity, drizzled with a lot of love and served with a side order of passion and enthusiasm.

" I will not go on about how fresh and good my food is - this you have to find out yourself! "

Much Love

Tasting day....

Longing for a day out in the sun I drove to Sandihurst to visit Celia & Henni. I was warmly welcomed, introduced to the winemaker and very quickly found myself barrel tasting Pinot Noir, first Waipara Pinot Noir then the Otago Pinot. What a treasure find. The reds are fruity with good structure of tannins, round and well balanced with long lingering finish. Those wines have character and would stand their ground with many styles of food. So are the whites!! They are just releasing their first Sauvignon Blanc and as I tried it I tell you it is worth driving out to West Melton to sip on some wine. www.sandihurstwines.co.nz

Many Thanks to you all for your interest and support through a rather rough time,
