. One of the best meals I had while in Sydney. Chef Peter Gilmore and Quay made the list for "five years on the World's 50 Best Restaurant list and held the title of Best Restaurant in Australia for three of those years". Located right across from the Sydney Opera House in the Rocks and next to the Sydney Harbor Bridge, the restaurant is in the heart of the harbor. It's located on the 4th floor of the boat terminal, giving you an amazing view as you dine. We were looking directly out the window at the Harbor Bridge itself, lit up in all of its glory on a clear spring night. The service at Quay is impeccable, everything you expect of a high end restaurant. The food brought out and presented to you at the same time - the details matter. This restaurant only offers a 6 course or a 10 course tasting menu, and everyone at the table must select the same number of courses - which left a lot to decide if you can't agree. But after the decisions are made, sit back and relax and leave everything up to Chef Gilmore and his team. We opted for the 6 course menu and here's what it looked like:*Amuse Bouche - unfortunately I can't remember what the tart consisted of but it was rich and delicious! Please serve this as part of your menu! *Hand Harvested Seafood with Virgin Soy, Seaweed, and Aged Vinegar - the seafood comes in a bowl that looks like a crustacean. They give you tweezers so you can hand stack each bite with every single element to give you a burst of flavors as you take in each bite. The squid/octopus tentacles with the other elements (I can't even begin to tell you what everything is) is bursting with flavor and paired together so perfectly! 5/5*Osetra Caviar with Smoked Eel, Walnuts and Sea Cucumber Crackling - this is another dish that plays with flavor and textures. The crackling sea cucumber is nothing I've ever tasted before and adds so much to the smoked eel mousse and caviar. Lovely, rich, but elegant. 5/5*Steamed Mud Crab Custard with Garden & Sea Greens - You pour the dashi over the mixture and it's a burst of flavors in your mouth. I didn't notice any mud crab but the custard had amazing flavors mixed with the garden and sea greens. 5/5*Salmon Roe and Butter on a Crumpet - we were surprised with an additional course of salmon roe and butter on a crumpet off menu. The crumpet was soft but toasted on on side. The butter and salmon roe made it taste like a salmon cream cheese bagel, but of course more elegant and refined. My least favorite dish of the night because it wasn't as amazing as the other dishes. 3/5*Bone Marrow Pasta with White Asparagus, Koji and Garum Butter - It had good flavors but I was expecting more when I read bone marrow pasta. The pasta was cooked well but it wasn't as extravagant as the other dishes presented. 4/5*Smoked Pig Jowl with Black Lipped Abalone, Shiitake and Fan Shell Clams - that pig jowl definitely melts in your mouth cause of all that fat. It was delicious and tasted fantastic. I was hoping being the main course, you would get more than 1-2 bites but the dish was as small as the other courses. Amazing texture, melts in your mouth like butter, delicious flavors. 5/5*You get to choose your main dish, between 2 options - the pork jowl or the roasted Maremma duck. Nobody got the duck so we didn't get to try this dish. For dessert, you get to choose between the White Coral or the Moo. I chose the Moo and quickly realized why they named it that - just look at that bowl, it was made perfectly for this dessert. Rich, sweet, decadent and chocolatey. Delicious dessert. The White Coral was a bit on the lighter side - coconut, some kind of fruit reduction in the middle. I hear my Moo was better according to a friend.And if you aren't full from dinner, they surprise you with some canneles and honey tarts after dinner and you leave with a memorabilia of the menu and some Valrhona chocolates in a cute little box. They sure do think of everything! The details, the plating, the actual plates, the service and the food makes this place an amazing addition and a lovely treat for those visiting Sydney!
