In a city celebrated for its culinary diversity, Logi offers something truly unique: a dining experience centered around the transformative power of wood-fire cooking. At the helm is Chef Martin Wong, a seasoned culinary innovator who has redefined modern European cuisine with an elemental twist. Through Logi, he marries tradition with creativity, crafting dishes that tell stories of fire, flavor, and finesse.
A Menu Born from Flame and Passion
The heart of Logi’s offerings lies in its wood-fired creations, where every dish is designed to showcase the interplay between bold flavors and precise technique. Chef Martin’s menu is a testament to his vision, combining carefully selected ingredients with the artistry of fire. Each dish invites diners on a sensory journey, starting with the visual allure of charred edges and caramelized finishes and ending with the deep, smoky flavors on the palate.
7-Day Aged Chorizo: A Study in Time and Texture
The 7-Day Aged Chorizo exemplifies Chef Martin’s dedication to depth and complexity. Cured to perfection and kissed by flame, this dish highlights how patience and precision can transform a simple ingredient into a masterpiece.
Chorizo Stuffed in Chicken Wing, Aigre Doux
This playful creation combines tender chicken wings with smoky chorizo, striking a balance between savory and tangy with the addition of aigre doux. It’s a dish that encapsulates the whimsical yet refined nature of Chef Martin’s culinary style.
Nduja Cockles: A Taste of the Sea and Spice
The Nduja Cockles are a bold fusion of local blood cockles and the fiery kick of nduja, paired with baby octopus, sautéed shallots, and garlic. This dish celebrates the vibrancy of local seafood, elevated by European influences.
Charred Bone Marrow: A Carnivore’s Delight
Few dishes capture the essence of fire like the Charred Bone Marrow, paired with wagyu rib finger, veal jus, and shallot confit. Served with house-baked focaccia, this dish is both indulgent and primal—a true reflection of Logi’s flame-driven philosophy.
NZ Skate: A Flawless Balance of Land and Sea
For seafood lovers, the NZ Skate (300g) is a standout. Sautéed garlic, preserved radish, and fried capers enhance the fish’s natural flavors, while a watercress salad provides a refreshing contrast. The skate’s delicate texture is brought to life by the wood-fire, adding a subtle smokiness.
Deconstructed Cheesecake: A Sweet Finale
No meal at Logi is complete without a touch of sweetness, and the Deconstructed Cheesecake delivers this with finesse. Australian cream cheese, mixed berry compote, and rye honey crumble come together to create a dessert that is as visually striking as it is delicious. The subtle smokiness of the crumble ties this dish back to the restaurant’s overarching theme of fire.
Crafting Culinary Narratives with Fire
For Chef Martin, fire is not just a tool—it’s a storyteller. “Each flame brings something unique to the table,” he shares. “It’s about creating layers of flavor and letting the fire shape the dish.” This philosophy is evident in every bite, as the dishes at Logi resonate with both simplicity and sophistication.
