harbourkitchen&bar, The Rocks

Vivid Sydney is back spreading the fabulous light through the city and the best seat in town to watch the ever changing colours of the opera house is at harbourkitchen&bar (Park Hyatt Sydney, 7 Hickson Road, The Rocks). The boy took me to dinner for my birthday a coupla weeks ago so i could return and eat some glorious burrata with someone who doesn’t work for a magazine and sneers at foodbloggers haha


Warm bread rolls arrive and is magically replaced all night.


Local cow’s milk burrata with Ox heart tomato and ‘Lakelands’ olive oil ($24). New fave cheese oh gawd burrata is so freaking awesome!


A mozzarella shell with mozzarella and cream innards oh baby! I was so tempted to order this for my mains too…


The boy ordered the tuna but it wasn’t as awesome as the burrata. The tuna seemed like such a waste being cut into cubes


‘Rangers Valley’ 400 day grain fed F1 MS7+ Wagyu beef rump 250g ($48). Mmm meat so juicy and flavourful and cooked medium rare as ordered.


Duck fat fried potatoes ($9) was a bowl of never ending golden fat fries that would’ve been awesome had we not had an entree or um a main oh gawd so tasty but so very filling


Cauliflower gratin ($9) seemed a bit lacking in the flavour department. I think i like my gratins with a whole lotta cheese and toasty crunchy breadcrumbs and a sauce that isn’t too thin.


Hazelnut Dacquoise with chocolate ganache and milk gelato ($19). It’s great when your stomach magically expands to fit in dessert! Crisp meringue layer with a layer of smooth chocolate and i think mousse? It was a dessert worth scraping the plate clean.
