The Waiting Room Crown Sydney
Executive PA members were treated to a lunchtime gastronomer ’ s delight at Crown Sydney ’ s The Waiting Room ( TWR ) recently .
TWR is described as a space that exudes “ warm , understated elegance ” and it certainly delivers , with an extensive cocktail list , rare single malt whiskies and vintage champagne to be enjoyed as you watch the world pass by along the Barangaroo boardwalk .
TWR specialises in heart-warming breakfast meals and all-day dining right up until 10pm at night , with a great variety of options for those with special dietary requirements .
Enjoying either an Eden Road Tumbarumba Chardonnay or an Eden Road `The Long Road ’ Pinot Noir , around 25 Executive PA members sat down in TWR ’ s outdoor space for a sumptuous lunchtime feast with starters including a signature TWS seafood platter .
The platter was full to the brim with Appellation Sydney rock oysters , chilled
QLD tiger prawns , octopus carpaccio , Pioik sourdough and Lescure butter .
A charcuterie platter featured jamón , duck rillette , wagyu bresaola , whipped cod roe , house pickles and charred sourdough .
Mains included moules marinieres – Spring Bay Tasmanian blue mussels , white wine , garlic ; 180g grain fed Riverina Angus tenderloin , steak frites , and bérnaise ; and duck confit , bitter leaves , mustard fruits , honey and hazelnut dressing .
For those who could fit it in , dessert was a passionfruit brûlée and yoghurt sorbet , and a Valrhona chocolate marquise with a crème anglaise and pistachio .
