A game-meat restaurant in the middle of Dominion Rd. Who would have thought it? Well, it’s here, and has been in some form since 1987. Owned by the same family who got it all started, Persian-inspired Cazador uses ingredients from hunters and local producers in a sustainability-forward approach to cooking and eating. That may mean stepping out of your comfort zone a little, but, hey, what have you got to lose?

To get a feel for what the restaurant is all about, definitely opt for the Feast menu, which, at $85, delivers a great bang for your buck. It starts with a meat broth of some kind (duck or rabbit), some hot Persian flatbread and the unmissable charcuterie (which you can also nab from the deli next door during the day), then flows into hearts and shoulders and shanks. Dark chocolate and brandy mousse awaits you at the end, along with cheese to pick at.

While game meat is its specialty, there’s always at least one line-caught fish of the day, and one vegetarian main to cater for any dietaries in the group. You’ll also notice that the team at Cazador love a sherry (so much, in fact, they pull out all the stops to convert a hater), with guided flights available, including of the dessert variety. If you’re after more of a wine, no problem: a considerable bottle list can be whittled down for you by Cazador’s resident manager (and wine expert), Simon Benoit.
