We have always been mad-keen fans of Bar Sopra,since the venue first opened in the heart of Potts Point in October 2020. Pumping on summer nights when al fresco dining is encouraged. There’s a Spanish theme running through the menu of seafood, meat and vegetarian tapas, cheese and charcuterie boards.
Our latest special event is part of Sparkling Sydney - a food and wine festival in Pyrmont, celebrating all there is to love about Australian gastronomy & amazing sparkling wines! We will be introducing you to the neighbourhood gem Bistro Clementine for our Mains course.

At our second stop on our travelling feast, we will enjoy an entrée of fresh Sydney Rock Oysters with a glass of Rotari Trentodoc at Blue Eye Dragon, where the restrained Oriental artwork has turned the old St Bede's church hall into something of a neighbourhood temple.
Our latest special event is part of Sparkling Sydney - a food and wine festival happening in Pyrmont, celebrating all there is to love about Australian gastronomy & amazing sparkling wines! We kick-off our inner-city dining experience at the new and shiny Aiden Hotel, with our prerequisite cocktail and delicious bar food in the fabulous snug downstairs bar with a view of Murray Street nightlife. During the 1930s - when Pyrmont was a major part of the working harbour - this building was the home of the Colonial Sugar Refining Company (CSR). In transforming the building into a soulful and sophisticated boutique hotel the owners have carefully kept the original bricks, features and framework from its rich history, whilst introducing a contemporary design.
We have a new player onboard for our Darlinghurst dining tours: introducing Bar Nina on the corner of Crown & Stanley Streets. Right smack in the middle of East Sydney the restaurant opened in April 2021 - mere months before Lockdown 2.0 kicked-in. We had intentions of popping-down to check-out the menu and vibe but Rona got in the way. So it was lovely to finally go there recently for a Saturday afternoon rose & oysters and discover that yes this is a place we definitely want to bring our guests!
Opening auspiciously on the first day of Spring, Bloom Cafe Aperitivo is a small but fabulous space is bought to you by the very creative Mauro & Amel of House Bar & Bistrot. The cafe is very conveniently situated just behind the restaurant on Kellett Place.
We started our Australian Travel Exchange 2021 on Sunday afternoon with a booking of three key luxe travel guests of Destination NSW on a curated lunchtime dining walk of Surry Hills on a Sunday afternoon. We met our guests upstairs at Tilly Mays Sydney who had just returned from hitting Bondi for a surf lesson and were in need of sustenance. The generous all Australian cheese board accompanied by a refreshing Pizzini, King Valley prosecco hit the spot perfectly.
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.
