Level 1, 252 George St Sydney
Bookings absolutely essential
Since 2003 Est has been the recipient of the highly acclaimed SMH Good Food Guide 3 hats. I have been dying to go to this place and since Merivale is running their 'March into Merivale' promotion- What better time to go?
I had booked a table of 7 for lunch about a month early. Hint: Like Quay and other fine dining restaurants, est charges 10% 'service charge' fee if you have 8 or more people. Personally I dont see why- bigger tables tend to receive less service- not more.
March Into Merivale
You have a number of options- 1 course $33, 2courses $50 and 3courses $65 (all w beer/champagne/wine)
Entrees:
Pretty much everyone in the group ordered the white seared scallops as an entree. They were beautiful.
Mains
1) Crisp Skin Palmed Mulloway, grilled belgian endive agro dolce. Very good but sadly also very small.
2) Soy glazed beef fillet, sesame, grated apple & radish. definitely recommended. If you are trying out the march into merivale est promotion, you have to try this. Its really good
The restaurant is very beautiful. In the centre of the restaurant there are these great white greek/roman columns and it gives the place a very elegant feel.
You write so much more elegantly than what I remember. Lol
ReplyDeleteAnd they were greek corinthian columns fyi =) (we had to study this in primary school)
