Savour the Flavour of Summer with Sailmaker Restaurant's New Seasonal and Sustainable Seafood Experience

Sailmaker announces its summer edition of the Seafarer Dinner - a seasonal three-course Choice Menu with produce exclusively sourced from sustainable fisheries.

Sydney's most indulgent and sustainable seafood experience has been re-imagined at Hyatt Regency Sydney's Sailmaker Restaurant. The Seafarer Dinner is a continuation of Hyatt's philosophy of 'Food. Thoughtfully Sourced. Carefully Served', and working with sustainable suppliers is the core mission of the culinary team, led by Executive Chef Sven Ullrich.

The elevated three-course Seafarer Dinner has been created with produce exclusively sourced from sustainable fisheries that practice eco-friendly farming or offer wild caught product. With passion and dedication to exquisite flavours and innovative culinary creations, the latest menu underscores Sailmaker's commitment to environmental sustainability and provides a delectable dining experience.

“We work closely with partners and source produce from all corners of Australia and New Zealand to ensure each dish is not only delicious, but sustainable. I am passionate about working with local suppliers and farmers to hand-pick the best and freshest ingredients for each dish whilst being guided by what's in season. It's important for us to share our sustainability story and the origins of our dishes with our guests. In line with broader consumer trends, we are finding people are increasingly receptive of our 'ocean to plate' style philosophy and support of local farmers – eating seasonally and mindfully is when produce is at its very best,” said Executive Chef, Sven Ullrich.

Sailmaker's summer menu includes sustainably raised kingfish from Clean Seas – Spencer Gulf, South Australia, whilst the barramundi is from the renowned Humpty Doo farm, Northern Territory and the Murray cod is from Aquna, a premium and sustainable pond-grown Murray cod farm in the Riverina, New South Wales. The bread on Sailmaker's menu is sourced locally from PiOik Bakery where all products are handmade using organic, market-fresh seasonal ingredients and no preservatives. With the restaurant's butter being batch churned from single origin cream, creating a less processed product, sourced locally from Pepe Saya Buttery.

On arrival, guests are invited to enjoy the Mediterranean tapas table filled with breads, grilled artichoke, stuffed peppadew, smoked mozzarella, cured olives, dips and more, designed to be shared family style. As part of the Seafarer Dinner experience, guests can then choose from a selection of six entrées and six mains – with other standout dishes including Fremantle octopus, Skull Island prawns, Hawkesbury River oysters and more, accompanied by the finest Australian ingredients and paired with a carefully crafted wine list with New South Wales wine heroes at the forefront. To finish the evening, a sweets trolley will see mouth-watering desserts prepared and served table side – from classics like chocolate brownie or Basque cheesecake, to enchanting flavours like pear-rhubarb cobbler.

The Seafarer Dinner menu is available every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday evening from 6pm to 9:30pm, with guests able to indulge in the Choice Menu for $89 per person.

Whilst heavily inspired by the ocean, there are also vegetarian, vegan and meat options for those not looking for pesca dining.
