Miann

Gaelic for “to crave,” Miann is perhaps the best patisserie in all of New Zealand. The experimental menu changes constantly and items are often themed for holidays or current events, but the craftsmanship of each dish remains the same high quality year-round. Treats on rotation have included such indulgences as whiskey and vanilla cheesecake with caramelized oats, honey and raspberry and the seasonal Chinese lantern bon bons. Located near the fashionable Britomart area, Miann’s dark, wooden interiors make for a romantic atmosphere, and the open kitchen allows for voyeurism as the team of pastry chef’s construct each plate with immaculate detail.
