Join us on Wednesday 10th June for a special evening with Lisa Wilkinson as she discusses for new release, The Titanic Story: Evelyn.

Inspired by the true story of Evelyn Marsden, a young Australian nurse who survived the sinking of the Titanic, the novel brings to life a remarkable tale of courage, ambition, love and survival against the backdrop of one of history's most enduring tragedies.

Hosted by Juanita Phillips, the evening will explore the real woman behind the story, the research that shaped the novel and the enduring fascination with the Titanic more than a century later.

Your ticket includes a two-course dinner and a glass of Prosecco on arrival.

Cost: $90pp. Bookings via link https://shorturl.at/ETTMK.

Friday Feels.

It may be cloudy & cold outside, but we’re dreaming of blue skies, ocean views, long lunches and cocktails by the beach.

Here’s to the weekend ahead!

Buon venerdì.

The same fold. The same filling. For centuries.

Culurgiones come from Ogliastra, eastern Sardinia where for generations, village women passed down their own secret pleat. That distinctive wheat-ear fold? It was said to protect the harvest and bring good luck.

We make ours by hand, the same way it’s always been done. Potato, Juncu cheese & zucchini - but like all the best things, it changes with the season.

Come try a little piece of Sardinian history before it does.

If the weather’s going to be miserable, at least the drinks don’t have to be.

Book a table by the beach and start with a Costa Smeralda. A scoop of granita finished tableside with Sardinian fennel liqueur Fenu, vodka and a touch of Sambuca poured over the top.

Cold, fresh and worth leaving the house for.

Electric blue ocean, white linen, ripe figs, cold cocktails, long lunches and plates arriving at the table worth lingering over.

Un pranzo come si deve.

Rome on the table.

This month’s ITALIA A TAVOLA heads to Lazio, the food everyone falls for sooner or later. Zucchini flowers, lightly fried with mozzarella and anchovy, carbonara the proper way with guanciale, egg and Pecorino Romano and veal saltimbocca with sage, prosciutto and white wine. The kind of dishes you end up craving after a trip to Rome.

Three courses $80
Add dessert, bignè di San Giuseppe, for $95

Regional matching wines available.

Bookings via link in bio.
