Luke & Friends: Luke Mangan and David Rayner’s new menu at Glass Brasserie

What do you get when two prominent Aussie chefs who are passionate about seasonal, quality local produce join forces to create an Autumnal menu? An inspiring and memorable dining experience – and in one of Sydney’s most vibrant and lively venues, no less. This is exactly what renowned chefs Luke Mangan and David Rayner have created at Mangan’s signature restaurant, glass brasserie in Sydney. This is the third iteration of ‘Luke & Friends’, with Mangan collaborating with Noosa-based chef Rayner, owner and head chef of Thomas Corner eatery in Noosaville. Previous ‘Luke & Friends’ collaborations include celebrity chefs Guy Grossi and Maggie Beer.

Mangan and Rayner’s friendship goes back a long way. They both share a passion for using seasonal, quality local and regional produce, celebrating the natural flavours of their chosen ingredients. And their passion for showcasing outstanding local produce shines through in the three impressive seafood dishes which are part of this exclusive offering, including a salmon ceviche, avocado, finger lime, pomegranate and shiso; a cuttlefish linguette, chilli, tomato, shallots, garlic, creme fraiche and oregano; and BBQ East coast baby octopus, caponata and black garlic. Refreshing and bursting with flavour, each dish tells a story about the beautiful and carefully sourced produce from around New South Wales.

To round off the perfect meal, you can’t go past Luke’s Signature Liquorice Parfait with apple and lime, which is celebrating 25 years of pure deliciousness. Even non-liquorice lovers have been known to turn after sampling this exquisite sphere of explosive and clever flavours.

The BBQ East coast baby octopus and cuttlefish linguette collaboration dishes feature on glass brasserie’s weekday $29 Wine Bar Lunch menu – a reasonably priced offering considering glass (as it’s affectionately known) is a hatted restaurant. The $29 Wine Bar Lunch menu also includes a complimentary glass of wine. The stunning salmon ceviche entree is available on the a la carte menu for both lunch and dinner, throughout the whole week.

The Mangan X Rayner Collaboration dishes are available at glass brasserie until 31st July 2019. Go forth and enjoy!

Where: Hilton Sydney, Level 2, 488 George Street, Sydney
