Remember those dry-age fridges we gave you a glimpse of back in June? This is what our chefs have been working on.

After several months of testing, tasting and refining, we’re almost ready to introduce the first dishes in the new Mount Paul Lounge Dry-Aged Series, beginning with Robbins Island Wagyu.

The first two delicious dishes are a dry-aged Wagyu entrée with rösti potato, yuzu kosho aioli, kizami wasabi and cured radish; and a 250g MB7+ dry-aged Wagyu striploin with black garlic, seasonal vegetables, beef jus and smoked Tasmanian sea salt.

In the coming weeks, guests will be able to experience both as part of our new three-course Signature Dry-Aged Wagyu Showcase Set, or by adding selected dry-aged dishes when booking our Teishoku or Shabu Shabu sets.

And this is only the first chapter. Our chefs are already working on the next stages of the Dry-Aged Series, with dry-aged fish for sashimi to follow, and duck further down the track.

Watch this space – bookings for our Dry-Aged Series will open soon.

Just by the restaurant entrance, a quiet surprise: delicate ferns gently lit, part of a Japanese garden that offers calm and beauty before the first course even arrives.

We have a trio of wombats at Freycinet Resort, created by Gravelly Beach Metalworks and installed in 2024. They seem to have settled comfortably near reception. Whether you spot them on arrival or glimpse them from the lounge, they’re a quiet reminder of the native creatures that roam on the Freycinet Peninsula.

A steaming pot of Shabu-shabu. A quiet Teishoku set featuring local Tasmanian produce. Young ginkgo and maple trees taking root in our soil.

They might look like different pictures, but they share the exact same philosophy: honest craftsmanship, zero fluff, and a commitment to what truly lasts.

We aren‘t chasing flashy dining trends or viral gimmicks. Shabu and Teishoku are about deep respect for the ingredient—delivering peak Tasmanian quality with unwavering consistency today, next year, and decades from now.

In our kitchen, we craft meals meant to nourish. On our land, we plant gardens meant to shelter generations to come.

Building an honorable tradition takes time. We’re in no rush.

Here’s Pandemic Puppy – Matt Calvert’s striking sculpture from the 2021 Montalto Prize. It’s a beautiful and fun addition to the site and has quickly become part of the welcome here at Freycinet Resort.

Your peaceful wilderness escape begins the moment you turn off the main highway! 🌿

Quiet, beautiful, and enjoyed almost exclusively by our guests, our 4km forest road is an intentional bridge into the wild. We deliberately keep this road unpaved for one vital reason: to protect our local wildlife residents. 🦘

Wallabies, echidnas, and native birds share this quiet road with us every day. We encourage you to ease off the accelerator (30 km/h limit), take a deep breath, and enjoy the stunning views and wildlife spotting before you even reach hotel reception.

Routinely maintained and safe for all standard vehicles, this scenic drive is your personal invitation to slow down and disconnect from the outside world.

A note for a perfect fit: We value total transparency to ensure you have the holiday of your dreams! While our guests love this peaceful, private transition into nature, we understand gravel roads aren’t for everyone. If you strictly prefer sealed asphalt roads, an alternative option in town may better suit your travel preferences.

You might have spotted these two indoors in the past, but now this charming kangaroo and emu pair by Gravelly Beach Metalworks have now found a new home outdoors, tucked just behind the bamboo. They welcome every guest arriving at our restaurant.

As night falls, this sculpture tree comes to life from within. LEDs set into the ‘branches’ glow gently, adding warmth and wonder to the dark.

Tucked among native blooms and sculptural stone by our Reception, you’ll find this sweet little bench: the perfect spot to pause, breathe, and take in the view. We hope our guests enjoy this little pocket of calm as much as we do.

Months in the making, and it’s finally here. 🌿✨

We are thrilled to introduce our newly added Bonsai Wall, a bespoke installation crafted specifically for our restaurant and lounge.

Made right here in Tasmania by local timber artist Stuart McLaren (Wattle Valley Timbers), this piece was crafted over several months using locally sourced timbers. The organic, flowing tree structure perfectly bridges raw Tasmanian nature with the delicate art of Japanese bonsai.

It creates the ultimate tranquil backdrop for an evening of Japanese dining with us. Next time you join us for dinner, take a moment to admire the craftsmanship up close!
