SAVOUR SYDNEY

A celebration of Sydney food culture and Australian produce

 

 

We're proud to present Opera Bar's first one-day festival spotlighting Sydney and NSW's thriving food & drink scene, with a special focus on the native ingredients that make Australian cuisine so unique. 

 

Saturday 3 May will see a top line-up of food and drink vendors, including leading restaurants from Matt Moran, whipping up festival-only menus; plus an insightful talk on indigenous ingredients from Matt Moran and First Nations plant nursery Indigigrow, whose edible flora have inspired many of the dishes.

 

Pre-purchased tickets include four snacks from a curated, ticketholders-only menu from our line-up of vendors, plus a welcome drink; book yours at the link below. 

 

Walk-ins are always welcome too, with food & drink from the stalls' general festival menus available to purchase on the day. 

 

Find the full line-up below and look out for further announcements. 

Chiswick

Chiswick is the original garden-to-plate restaurant and the vanguard of championing locally grown ingredients and Australian producers. With a new Head Chef, Samuel Rozsnyoi, at the helm, come down for a taste of the new chapter at Chiswick celebrating home-grown ingredients.  

PS40

PS40 is a stalwart of the Sydney Bar scene.  A unique cocktail bar with a culinary influence infused into its drink philosophy, catch their take on Australian flora on the Harbourside. 

Never Never Gin Distilling Co.

Never Never Gin Distillery Co., crafters of some of Sydney's finest gin; and, by extension, finest martinis, will be popping up with a selection of cocktails with twists from native ingredients. The perfect partner to explore the festival with. 

Aria

Aria combines the finest ingredients Australia has to offer at one of Sydney’s finest dining experiences, retaining two Chef Hats for 2025. A chance to experience Executive Chef Tom Gorringe's culinary mastery paired with native ingredients in snack form. 

Hey Rosey

Hey Rosey has made waves on the famous Orange food & drink scene and brings to Sydney their hyper-local take on food and wine, championing local products and producers.

Mt Yengo Wines

Mt Yengo Wines was created to bring the values of the First Nations People of Australia and fuse them with the technology and quality from our newest inhabitants to create not only a winery, but a community that values bridging the cultural divide, instilling cultural understanding, embracing reconciliation and diversity. Not to mention excellent wines. 

Rekōdo

A nod to Japanese listening rooms, Rekōdo (Japanese for 'record') blurs the line between food, drink and music. Think a sprinkle of Japanese inspiration, a pinch of Australian native ingredients plus a healthy dash of creative cooking from Head Chef Rhys Watson-Lamb. 

North Bondi Fish

North Bondi Fish is on a mission to champion Aussie, in particular lesser-known seafood, with accessible, delicious takes on classics and plenty of fun thrown into the mix.
