Check out these great shots from our Crafty Dining in East Sydney event last week! This is our first stop at the Australian Design Centre. Where our guests were introduced to the gallery space by Director Lisa Cahill and her team. Featuring a couple of exhibitions including entries in the Profile 2019: Contemporary Jewellery and Object Award.
Our final stop was at Skarfe in the back streets of Potts Point. Brad dressed our ladies in silk & cotton and the room soon turned into a whirling bazaar of colour and sound as everyone tried out the merchandise. There was more excitement as the Kakawa Chocolates Sydney were opened and consumed on the spot.
Brown Paper Wine is the creation of Richard Powell, his mates call him all sorts of names: Richie, Dick, and many more colourful monikers. We first met when he supplied wines for a Surry Hills Creative Precinct function we attended a year ago. His passion and joy in introducing people to good wine was evident from the moment he poured us a glass.
We have always wanted to do an event with Skarfe since we stumbled across the tiny, colourful store in it’s original location on Roslyn Terrace. Owner Brad McGlashan - a fellow New Zealander - kicked off his business in the same year as The Sydney Connection began so we always had plenty to talk about on our instore visits.
Discover one of the jewel's of the Northern Beaches hospitality scene: located on the first floor of the stunning white heritage building, The Bistro at Manly Pavilion is one of the best Italian restaurants in Sydney. With an amazing outdoor terrace with panoramic views of the harbour, you could not ask for a more beautiful place to dine al fresco in Sydney.
Our newest dining walk is in Manly - a laidback beachside suburb situated on the Northern shores of Sydney. Home to surfers, famous authors & actors and many Sydneysiders who are happy to commute to the city daily in exchange for ‘living the dream’ by the beach.
