There's nothing quite like good food at your favourite restaurant after it's been refurbished. All the food is still as delicious as ever but everything's a little bit more updated and new. It's like reliving your first visit all over again. And, if you've never been to Discovery Settlers Hotel Whangarei before, reliving your first visit is something you'd want to do as many times as possible.

Grab a $45 food and beverage voucher for $20 from Discovery Settlers Hotel Whangarei and taste delicious local dishes spiced up with international flavours from their onsite restaurant.

Located within the hotel's facilities, Parahaki Restaurant and Bar offers tempting options from entrees to deserts. Their wonderful staff and talented chefs will serve you up a number of treats to make your visit unforgettable, whether you're guest of the hotel or a visitor passing through. Able to seat up to 120 guests, your large group or dinner date can easily be accommodated.

Parahaki offers a decedent a la carte menu with a wide range of choices for entrees, mains and deserts. They have a extensive liqueur and wine list with options that'll compliment every meal. To start off, try the warm garlic loaf or the Tandoori salmon skewers. The NZ green lipped mussels steamed in white wine and finished with either a Malaysian curry or sweet Thai chili coconut sauce never fails to please those with an adventurous appetite.

You and your friends will enjoy mains like the classic lamb shank with sun-dried tomatoes and the Cajun chicken breast filled with mushroom and wrapped in streaky bacon. You can't come all the way to Whangarei and not try a traditional seafood meal. Don't let the plain title fool you - the fish 'n' chips with fresh lemon and homemade tartare sauce is a favourite of every visitor. If you're not too stuffed from your flavour infused main then give one of their mouth watering deserts a go. The simply chocolate mousse served on a rich mud cake base is a real treat for any chocolate lover.
