Lennox Hastie's wood-fire-only restaurant is one of the most singular dining experiences in Sydney — every element of every dish is cooked over fire, with no gas or electricity in the kitchen. The menu is short, ingredient-led, and changes daily based on what's best. Bookings open weeks in advance and disappear fast; the omakase-style approach means you surrender control and are rewarded for it.
