Lucky Sydney-siders need not travel too far to dine on some of the best cuisine in the world…
Case in point: Luke Mangan’s glass brasserie at the Hilton, Sydney.
To celebrate the Year of the Monkey, members of the travel industry (including media) were treated to a delicious 4-course Chinese New Year themed dinner created by Mangan himself last Wednesday, which included fresh lobster (the best!), straight-from-the-sea mussels, wagyu beef and more.
Luke Mangan, the Aussie chef and restauranteur, is a name known all over the world, from Sydney to Jakarta to Tokyo.
And by recently teaming up with P&O Cruises to launch Salt grill, Mangan’s specialty restaurant exclusive to the Pacific Jewel, Pacific Dawn and Pacific Pearl ships – including the Pacific Aria – cruisers are now able to dine on some of the best food available on land, at sea.
“I want to create an intimate restaurant that passengers will enjoy so much it’ll be one of the highlights of their holiday.”
Luke Mangan.
At Salt grill, Luke serves up his signature dishes, such as Crab Omelette, Enoki Mushroom Salad and Miso Broth and the infamous Liquorice Parfait with Lime Syrup.
Tianli Zu, the 2015 Archibald Prize finalist and the woman behind the hotel’s New Year installation, was also in attendance, sharing her thoughts on her latest installation – the Lunar Lanterns: The Ox installation at Martin Place.
The Hilton, Sydney was bought for $442 million by Chinese investment house Bright Ruby last year, with the hotel chain retaining the management.
