Absynthe, Surfers Paradise
ID: 343

Absynthe – Queensland’s Best Regional Restaurant 2007 – is on Surfers Paradise Boulevard in front of QI (the world’s tallest residential tower) in the heart of Surfers Paradise, a short stroll from the Gold Coast’s famous beaches

Absynthe-is the creation of chef Meyjitte Boughenout. Meyjitte earned two Michelin Stars as executive chef at Restaurant Scholteshos in Belgium before moving to Australia.

French-born Meyjitte created Absynthe for people who appreciate beautiful food and wine. Absynthe has won numerous awards since opening two years ago and was recently voted Queensland’s Best Regional Restaurant.

Absynthe’s menu of contemporary French-Australian cuisine is available a la carte or degustation style. The wine list features more than 1000 internationally recognised wines from all over the world.

The intimate 50-seat restaurant serves dinner every evening except Sunday and lunch on Friday only. The a la carte menu is not available on Friday and Saturday evenings – these nights are reserved for gourmet dining degustation style.

Degustation means to savour, the Journey into Taste menu features six or seven small courses. This culinary experience may be ordered with diners’ choice of wine from a list of more 1000 internationally recognised labels or with the sommelier’s selection of wine with each course. Dishes change to take advantage of the best seasonal produce. Vegetarian and other special diets can be catered for with prior notice.

Absynthe is available for functions and catering may be arranged. Meyjitte caterers for a number of international fashion labels including Cartier, Gucci, Prada, Louis Vuitton and Hermes. Family celebrations, corporate functions and events may be held in the main restaurant or the small private dining room.

Meyjitte has introduced a variation of modern French cuisine based on Australian ingredients. “My restaurant is relaxed but sophisticated. It is less formal than some overseas or interstate fine dining establishments, Queensland is designed for relaxation. Although we are less formal we take enormous pride in serving the best food and wine available anywhere. I look forward to sharing the Absynthe experience with people who savour the difference,” Meyjitte Boughenout.
