Three Blue Ducks is headed to Bali, Maldives on an “island trail”

The legendary Three Blue Ducks, which most recently jumped into the luxury hotel game as the resident restaurant for W Brisbane, is about to go tropical.

Springing off their W connections, chefs Darren Robertson and Mark LaBrooy plan to take their concept overseas for a round of pop-up dinners across W properties in Bali and Maldives. Two exclusive dinners will result from the “island trail”, showcasing the concept along with tropical flavours and locally caught, sustainable seafood to emphasise and built upon the paddock-to-plate ethos that made them famous.

A selection of dishes from each of the below menus will be available for guests at each respective hotel – W Bali – Seminyak, and W Maldives – between November of this year, and January of next.

Check out the full details below, and be sure to head along if you’re in those parts of the world. The menus look incredible.
