Review

Tucked just off the main road, Studer offers both al fresco dining and a spacious indoor barn-style setting. It’s a laid-back spot that’s become a favourite for meat lovers, particularly for its steaks. With its Josper charcoal oven imparting a signature smoky flavour, Studer’s menu is a meat lover’s dream, though there are plenty of options for those looking beyond steak. Kick things off with classic foie gras on a bed of fruit chutney, or opt for the adventurous frog legs in Tennessee whiskey sauce. For pasta enthusiasts, the house-made sausages served with capellini aglio e olio are a hit, while the carbonara—made with smoked pork belly or Australian Black Angus—sticks to tradition. From the wood-fired oven comes a standout truffle-scented mushroom pizza that’s hard to resist. But it’s the steak that steals the spotlight. Choose from Australian Black Angus ribeye or fillet, aged and grilled to perfection in the Josper oven. Larger cuts like chateaubriand and tomahawk are ideal for sharing, and specials like Jack Daniel’s-marinated steak add extra intrigue. Thai dishes too, such as laab and pork ribs in Panang curry, benefit from the Josper’s magic. A must-visit for anyone seeking serious steak in a relaxed setting.
