Calling all carnivores: Aussie-owned Westholme Wagyu, producers of world-class, farm-to-table beef, is teaming up with three Sydney restaurants to throw a series of special one-off dinners this spring and summer. If you’re someone who appreciates seriously good meat – we mean the people who beeline it straight past Coles’ discount steaks – this is for you.
The Flavour and Forage restaurant series will be taking place at three Applejack Hospitality venues – the CBD’s Bopp & Tone, Potts Point’s The Butler and the all-new Rafi Urbnsurf Sydney Olympic Park. Each head chef had creative licence to curate a brand-new multi-course menu. The only catch? It needed to spotlight Westholme Wagyu.
Highlights of the series include rare mānuka-smoked striploin MB 8-9 with muscatel, watercress and shiso on a crisp tostada at The Butler; rump cap MB 6-7 tartare with caviar, quail egg and saltbush at Rafi; and grilled flank MB 6-7 skewer glazed with aged shoyu and Tasmanian wasabi at Bopp & Tone. Time Out was lucky enough to get a sneak peek at the menu and can attest it’s delicious.
If you are a Wagyu lover or have someone in your life who would be keen on this luxe dinner, here are the details:
Bopp & Tone’s event will be held on Sunday, October 27 from noon, and it costs $160 per person, with matching wines for an additional $70 per person. You can book here.
