The Sydney Connection turned 8 last week. Woo hoo!
And to celebrate we bought a piece of art for the home office My Poster Sucks which is coming all the way from Turin Italy! We first discovered their work Rootstock Sydney and bought a Sophia Loren piece featuring champagne. So now Obama joins the family.
Great to kick-off the new year with a booking - from one of our fave regulars - of Potts Point. Jennifer has come to three of our four Crafty Dining events and is a fierce advocate for The Sydney Connection.
Across town we are very pleased to announce that one of our fave modern Korean restaurants, SOUL Dining, has joined our Surry Hills line-up. Prepare to sink into a blue velvet seat, in an industrial chic space with low light and great service. SOUl Dining has been described as too Korean to be called modern Australian, but not traditional enough to be called classic Korean.
We are thrilled to announce that we are now including hot new comer Ezra on our Potts Point dining walk route. So far the Baklava ice cream for the dessert course, accompanied by a stunning Gilbert late harvest Reisling, Orange NSW, has been a big hit with our local guests.
Check-out our menu and images from Thursday night's very enjoyable Crafty Dining Potts Point event as part of the opening week of Sydney Craft Week and Good Food Month. We’ll let the photos from the fabulous Julie Samerski do the talking.
Café de la Fontaine is a French Café, Creperie, Patisserie, French Ice creamery and antique store located right in the heart of Potts Point, chosen for its vibrancy and long history as a destination of chic and elegance.
Kings Cross Distillery is located at the intersection where the once mischievous glittering half mile of Darlinghurst Road, meet the increasingly glamorous Macleay Street of Potts Point. The stripped-back brick space was formerly a speakeasy and gambling den in the 1960s, before becoming an adult bookstore named Private Book Shop and later Ecstasy Adult Bookstore in the late 1970’s. Upstairs there was the usual, shadowy, pleasures of a by-gone era befitting of the postcode 2011.
Global Grapevine was founded in 2012 by father and son duo, Robert and Heath Felton. The group’s endeavour is to bring a carefully selected portfolio of premium French, Italian and Spanish wines and champagnes, never before seen in Australia, from some of the finest vineyards in Europe, direct to the cellars of Australian restaurateurs and wine lovers.
