3 Fat C’s Hit Sydney Restaurant Scene

Posted by pesky | November 15, 2008 .

Sorry for the long time between updates. We decided during our recent trip to Sydney to visit Billy Kwong’s restaurant in Crown Street Surry Hills. As Melburnians, we are very dubious by nature about the claims made by Sydney restauranteurs. After all, everyone knows that Melbourne is Australia’s cultural capital, and is the true home of fine dining on the continent. We have to admit however that we were extremely impressed with Billy Kwong! It is quite unpretentious (were we really in Sydney?) and focusses on ‘environmentally friendly” fresh flavoursome food. We opted for the $90 per head banquet and were in due course transported to heaven. Every dish was in perfect balance as was the selection of dishes overall. Our favourite was the orange duck, a house specialty, but really every dish was exquisite – fish, oysters, scallops and perfectly cooked Chinese vegetables.

Kylie Kwong and her Mum were sitting behind us at the adjoining table. Whilst Kylie was off in the kitchen, Pesky took the opportunity to speak with Kylie’s Mum, offering her one of his secret steamed chicken recipes. I think she was somewhat underwhelmed!
