Chiswick Woollahra

Woollahra’s leafy streets wouldn’t be the same without Chiswick. Like the suburb itself, Matt Moran’s modern Australian stunner is a collision of old and new; a country garden merged seamlessly with a pavilion, lavished with contemporary elements and thoughtful retro touches. But the real heart of the restaurant is the kitchen garden – one of only a handful this abundant in Sydney – which forms an attractive backdrop right outside the windows and features throughout the seasonal menu, emphasising the farm-to-table ethos.
