Glass is located in the heart of the CBD, on Level 2 of Hilton Sydney.
PROFILED BY DE GROOTS MEDIA
The choice of name for Hilton’s resident restaurant, glass brasserie, is not puzzling. After all this smooth, sharp, sparkling restaurant is proud owner of a 13-metre glass facade. And, rather than dominating the dining room, this element works only to embellish it by providing guests with natural light as well as first-rate views of the QVB. Likewise the restaurant’s decor ? contemporary brown curved booths, white-set tables, narrow light features, large clothed chandeliers and soaring wine towers ? complements this glassy feature with a mix of complexity that wows and simplicity that exudes comfort.
Similarly, the cuisine blends simplicity with wow-evoking delivery. The menu offers several course options which start with appetisers and move through caviar and oysters onto entrees, mains, cheeses and desserts. Begin with the Hiramasa kingfish sashimi with ginger, eschalot and Persian fetta ? a bit of a signature for chef extraordinaire Luke Mangan. The lightness of the fish, the sweetness of the garnishes and the slight zest of the accompanying rocket have got to be experienced. As does the playfulness of textures and flavours present in an organic swimmer crab omelette which comes topped with an enoki mushroom and herb salad and a miso mustard broth. Mains present hearty options from the grill as well as slighter, flavoursome selections like a delicious assiette of rabbit. For dessert choc-o-holics can indulge in an assiette of chocolate while savoury-sweet tooths will love the violet ice-cream, peach, white chocolate cream and honeycomb or a cheese platter. Pair the experience with a glass from one of the most extensive wine lists in Sydney (featuring a constantly-evolving 900 wines). These can be enjoyed with dinner, as part of a degustation menu or at the adjoining wine bar. Just ask sommelier, Kim Bickley, or her team to help you with your selection.
