GUEST CHEF Winter POP-UP

JAPANESE MENU by Daiki Shigeta
5, 12, 19, 26 + 27 JULY
Dinners from 5pm

NEW DATE ADDED Monday 27

After many successful years at Roco in Brunswick Heads, chef Daiki Shigeta, is bringing his menu to Pipit for a winter pop-up!
Heading just 15-mins north to Pottsville, the elevated Japanese menu will continue his signature ramen but with more focus on the wood-fire grill too. It’s the perfect winter-warmer for cooler nights in The Tweed.

MORE ABOUT DAIKI (Roco via Menufyy)

“The menu highlights include a standout Tokusei Pork Ramen, celebrated for its rich, fresh broth, hand-made noodles, tender cha-shu pork, and the perfectly cooked half-boiled egg—a composition that rivals the best ramen in larger cities.

Small plates offer a refined take on classic Japanese flavors. The squid arrives tender with well-balanced seasoning and beautifully crafted sauces, while the Mahi Mahi Negima delivers freshness with a subtle complexity. These dishes highlight the kitchen’s commitment to quality and precise execution.

Ideal for locals and visitors seeking an elevated Japanese dining experience (with) a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation in both food and atmosphere.

No problem! We can cater to most dietary requirements. We have, dairy free, vegan and vegetarian options for snacks, ramen and dessert.

We have a variety of Gluten free options but unfortunately we can’t provide ramen that is truly gluten free as a low gluten soy (20 parts per million) is used to marinate the garnishes and the rice noodles we use have to be cooked in the same pot as the regular noodles.

Due to the nature of the cuisine at Roco, if you are allergic to allium, are anaphylactic to shellfish and crustaceans or are severely allergic to gluten we may have options but unfortunately cannot guarantee a safe dining experience for you due to possible contamination.

If you have any other questions feel free to get in touch hello@pipitrestaurant.com

Due to the nature of special events/pop-ups, limited variations and not all dietary adjustments will possible
