This month, we’re excited to introduce a new chapter: The Sydney Connection now exclusively offers Private Tours, immersing guests in Sydney's vibrant dining scene with tailored experiences for you and your loved ones. We’re also thrilled to welcome Armslength on Kellett Street to our Potts Point dining experience, enhancing our exploration of inner-city Sydney. A recent trip to Auckland featured outstanding meals at Daphne’s Taverna and Bar Magda. As the holiday season approaches, we wish you peace, joy, and the pleasure of sharing memorable meals with loved ones.
This month we’re excited to welcome Toei, the Korean/Japanese fusion restaurant to our Surry Hills Dining Tour. On a bittersweet note, we say goodbye to Leigh and Felix at Bei after 20 amazing years in hospitality. We wish them the best in their next chapter. Lastly, we loved reading Your Table is Ready by Michael Cecchi-Azzolina, an honest and humourous memoir about life in the service industry.
This month we report back on a delightful pop-up restaurant in the ‘hood named Acciughe Salate, or Salty Anchovies, which took over the Bayswater Kitchenette space for 6 weeks in June and July. If you have finished your Dry July spell and and want to make a change to your usual drinking rituals, we have some good suggestions for tasty non-alcohol alternatives. And we say a sad and unexpected farewell to Dead Ringer, a Surry Hills steward of the Sydney dining community. As always, stay tuned for more updates and discoveries from Sydney's ever-evolving food scene.
