These established restaurants will be serving up dishes alongside previously announced restaurants: MoVida, Biota Dining, Saké Restaurant & Bar and Thievery.
Peter Gilmore (Quay), Rob Cockerill (Bennelong), and Nelly Robinson (nel.) will be each hosting intimate masterclass experiences at the Electrolux Chefs’ Secrets tent, presenting communal table dining experiences with matched wines.
