Waterfront dining is big in Sydney’s east, and now Sydney’s south has its very own beach house – and you are going to love it! Ramsgate Beach House has pride of place, just metres from the shores of Botany Bay. There’s a promenade and a beach out front, and plenty of tables – overlooking the water – where you can watch the world go by!
Bright and buzzing, Ramsgate Beach House offers a modern Australian menu, with Greek, Lebanese and Spanish influences. Go-to starters include the White Taramasalata – with charred sourdough – and the Pan-fried Halloumi Saganaki with Australian natives, seasonal fruit and macadamia crumb. Being by the water, there’s plenty of seafood too, with Hervey Bay Scallop Ceviche, Char-grilled Octopus Skewers – served with a romesco and gremolata sauce – and Char-grilled King Prawns – served with an XO butter sauce.
For a ‘fine dining’ experience, most of us head to the city, but in downtown Hurstville, one restaurant is reaching new heights! Hatch, located on the second floor of Humphrey’s Hotel, is a newly-hatted restaurant. Offering diners a warm and inviting atmosphere, lacking pretension, Hatch’s menu is designed to share. Highlight offerings include the Caviar Cornettos – a nostalgia play on the ice-cream- with creme fraiche, black garlic aioli, and traditional caviar. For the mains, you can’t go past the Pan-fried Duck Breast, with celeriac and parsnip puree, port jus, roasted grapes and chard. And for the ultimate ‘cracker’ of a dessert, there’s the ‘Hatched’ Egg featuring a white chocolate shell, with passionfruit and mango and coconut ice-cream!
