The Doltone House Group has just launched a brand new food emporium named Signorelli Gastronomia. The family owned and operated company has a significant portfolio of waterfront entertainment and catering venues, including Jones Bay Wharf and Darling Island Wharf.

Michel Roux (Snr)

Michel Roux’s approach to cuisine is all about removing the complexity from dishes and making the experience clean and crisp. He arrived in England in 1971 with his older brother Albert, to open the original Le Gavroche Restaurant in Lower Sloane Street, London and it was an instant hit during...

Fried soft bone chicken

It all started with a simple tweet from Dan Hong about a legendary Indonesian dish of deep fried chicken, where the bones are completely edible with the flesh and the skin is fried to a satisfying crisp. Apparently, there is only one restaurant in Sydney which serves this dish, a place called Maranatha...

Saké Restaurant

We’ve all been wondering what Shaun Presland has been planning since his departure from Ivy Teppanyaki. He’s been spotted recomposing the lunch menu at the Argyle to the tune of “turning Japanese”, and now he has opened a new restaurant in what was once the Argyle functions area...

Amsterdam Eats

The first thing we all think of when someone is visiting Amsterdam? The drinking, the weed, the women, and the long mindless nights that no one remembers when they wake up next to the canal. Everyone who isn’t an American teenager would know that it doesn’t have to be that way! Amongst all...

Sushi Yachiyo

It is a very popular haunt for executives doting Italian suits during weekday lunches, but by night, it is an inviting space for a glass of wine or aperitivo with their...

Alira, Pyrmont

They say variety is the spice of life – this is most certainly the case when you find that hidden gem in Pyrmont. While pizza places continue to pop up one after another alongside wine bars with tapas, Alira stands out from the crowd. Formerly a Thai restaurant, Alira is tucked away on the quieter...

Omerta Wine Bar

The much awaited Omerta Wine bar finally opened its doors after the disappearance of Gastronomia Pelagio on Victoria St Darlinghurst. With the competition of Thomas Dux and Crown St grocer opening up nearby, the deli decided on an exit strategy and transformed the space into a beautiful wine bar. Under...

Flinders Inn, Paddington

Flinders Inn is the creation of an impressive team, with head chef Morgan McGlone (ex-Salt), Darran Smith (ex-Icebergs) and Rob Young (ex-Uccello, NBI) running the show. It is cosy 40 seater French bistro situated by a bustling intersection on Flinders Street. The daily specials written with a tangerine...
