This isn’t your standard chimichurri—it’s brighter, bolder, and full of personality. ⁠ ⁠ A mix of coriander, parsley, and mint gives it a vibrant, herbaceous base, while capers, cornichons, and mustard add a savoury kick. A splash of red wine vinegar lifts everything with a little acidity, and a gentle heat from red chilli balances it out beautifully.⁠ ⁠ Perfect for spooning over grilled meats, fish, or roasted veggies, this sauce is quick to make and endlessly versatile.⁠ ⁠ #culinarywonderland #chimichurri #learncheftechniques

A classic Bistro dish made with exceptional local produce. This dish is named after the technique used to cook the fish- “En papillote” literally translates to “in paper.” Come down to try it for yourself and follow along for more prep to plate videos in our kitchen. #belongilbistro #thebelongil

For moments big and small, everyday or once in a lifetime, Kiosk is for community. A third space, where your post-swim morning coffee becomes a ritual and a familiar face is guaranteed to greet you with a smile (or a lick, if it’s from one of our furry regulars🐶). From our Monday laneway nights to our Saturday morning run clubs, to our celebrations for holidays and birthdays, our space feels this good thanks to those who we share it with. 🫶🏼 Come find your community at the Kiosk! #belongilkiosk #community #byronbay
