About Younobi Cafe and Bistro
A range of thoughtful, French inspired dishes using seasonal and locally sourced ingredients
One of their pillars is around sustainability and reducing waste which is why their roast beef set uses jersey beef, a dairy cow not often used for its meat
Whether you're after a hearty meat dish, a light fish plate or a rich cheesecake, you'll find a variety of options at this modern, contemporary bistro

Meet the chef
Chef Tanaka is trained in French cuisine and is a cheese expert
Together with his wife, they run Younobi Cafe and Bistro, serving French inspired dishes with a slightly elevated level of refinement
As Chef Tanaka is a cheese expert, his rich cheesecake places the focus on the cheese flavour and not just the dessert itself and is a must try!
