 Quay Restaurant Review: In the years that executive chef Peter Gilmore has been at Quay, he has made quite a name for himself and his food at this restaurant, perched like a ship about to launch into the harbor. And while the contemporary cuisine which he has evolved here is exceptional, many diners pace themselves in order to enjoy his decadent and involved five-textured Valrhona chocolate cake. In this seriously romantic territory, with a view of Sydney's jewels---we’re talking Sydney Harbour Bridge, the harbor itself and Opera House---this has to be the ideal finale for a meal. The set two- or three-course lunch menu features such a range of esoteric flavors and techniques that many feel they must dine several times to taste enough. By night (book early to secure a window seat) the four course à la carte menu takes it all further. Now the sea pearls of tuna, pearl meat, caviar and “egg white pearls” are joined by brioche-crusted salmon, confit of shaved baby squid, plus so much more. And, of course, that chocolate dessert. The prestigious international wine list is known and respected throughout Sydney. Half bottles and twenty or so wines by the glass provide attractive options for lunchtime dining. |
