It’s only fitting that the very best of Australia’s produce and wine take centre stage at the iconic Sydney Opera House’s Bennelong restaurant. Celebrated Australian chef Peter Gilmore steers the diner through the diversity of the nation’s home-grown flavours introducing what he envisages as the essence of Australian cuisine.
The Bennelong menu has been curated by Executive Chef Peter Gilmore together with Head Chef Rob Cockerill, inspired by conversations with the most passionate and dedicated farmers, fishermen, breeders and providores nationwide.
Food Philosophy
"We are excited to be creating food that celebrates Australian produce and Australian wine. We want to present Australia’s stunning produce from the rich truffle country in the west, triangulating through tropical Queensland all the way down to cool-climate Tasmania. Bennelong’s menu is a reflection of modern Australian food today." Peter Gilmore

It fits. It works. Bravo. Take a bow.”
