Muse on Allen - Restaurant & Bar
Chef Samuel North founded Muse on Allen – Restaurant and Bar, out of a mutual love for contemporary fine dining, cuisine, beautiful produce, and exquisite flavours. Consistently implementing new and modern cooking techniques, the chef uses the most organic, fresh and local products as possible. Chef however, has given the menu an injection of quality, exciting and fragrant international ingredients to complement our home grown and home reared elements. It is a wonderful experience to sample the menu created and prepared by this talented chef.
Samuel North has been involved in the food industry since the young age of sixteen where he began an apprenticeship, splitting his time between Bellamy’s Restaurant at Parliament and the Holiday Inn (both in Wellington.)
