Bentley Restaurant and Bar, Surry Hills

This two-hatted restaurant is now closed but shall re-open
at Radisson Blu Hotel in Sydney's CBD in November.
Yet another reason to go back. =)
I only have one word to say about Bentley, Extraordinary!
Every dish was beautifully presented and they tasted incredible.
It was an overall amazing experience for us and looking forward to dining at Bentley again.

Universal Restaurant, Darlinghurst (Closed)

What could be funkier than red, yellow, orange and hot pink? 
My son thought Universal Restaurant was cool and fun. 
While I love the unique blend of Asian flavours incorporated into their dishes. 
The spices brought a deeper depth of flavour and vibrancy to every dish served. 
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our dinner.

Few days ago, I was sad to hear that Christine Manfield will be closing her two-hat restaurant soon. This will be another huge blow to Sydney's restaurant scene, 
sad to say. Universal Restaurant will be missed.
