Another night in Sydney CBD. It's supposed to be just a normal weekly dinner with Nadine. Coincidently, she won a restaurant gift voucher from her company as the "best-performing employee" of the month earlier that week. So what to do with $500 gift voucher? Spend it somewhere expensive! We just have to pick from one of their partner restaurants. Our choice? Garden Court Restaurant from Sofitel Sydney.
Before going, we already checked their menu online. Needed to make sure that we at least know what they have and if the voucher is enough. lol. It was our first time eating in a fine dining restaurant in Sydney as well.
Rating (out of 5)
Price: -
I won't give a rating for the price because I didn't actually pay for this meal. As I have mentioned, Nadine won a gift voucher from her company. Also, because there was just the two of us, we went all out and just ordered whatever we want. However, I saw online that estimated cost for one person is around $65. Compared to our usual meal, around $15-$30 per person, this price is expensive.

Food is Instagram worthy 😉. However, they used dim lights around the restaurant. Again, we were not able to get pictures with us on it. It did have a cozy feeling.
Service: 5
Service was great. The staff was very attentive and they were able to cook and serve our order within a reasonable time. They also offered free starters while we wait for the entree.

Love it! The highlight for me was the dessert. We went all out and order all the dessert that we want. I think the staff was a little shocked when we said that we'll order 3 different desserts. This is after finishing the starter, 2 entrees, and main dish (steak and salad). 😆
