Scenic vs Scenic Plus
Explore the flavours of our land
Imagine rolling through the Canterbury Plains aboard the TranzAlpine, enjoying a breakfast of Eggs Benedict on potato-herb rosti and free-range bacon?
Or watching Lake Brunner glide by your window while savouring South Island smoked salmon and charcuterie plate with a glass of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc?
Perhaps cruising through Cass with an Otago Pinot Noir while enjoying slow braised Canterbury lamb, a wine jus and local seasonal vegetables is more your style?
Well, these are just a few of the delicious dishes we'll be serving aboard this season.
