The triangular part of MONA jutting out over the River Derwent is home to Faro, the finest of the subversive art museum’s dining options. Faro is as extravagant as you’d expect a MONA restaurant to be, paying homage to the lavish flavours of French cuisine using Tasmanian produce. Standouts include Manger la Problème (Eat the problem) featuring seared feral Tasmanian venison back strap, potato mille-feuille, persillade, and café de Mona with celeriac cream; and the decadent Putain de Fromage Chaud (F**king hot cheese), a dish consisting of baked Le Conquérant camembert, pommes frites, roast garlic, cornichons and lavosh. As the menu reads: what more do you want?
