A Striking Innovation at Sydney Cove Oyster Bar : Oyster Masterclass!
The first oyster masterclass was successfully ran by hosting 16 food & travel influencers at Sydney Cove Oyster Bar. 12 different types of Australian oysters were served with perfectly matching hand-picked Semillon, Riesling and Sake by our wine sommelier Barnaby Fallows. It was a totally unique event which has never been tried in any similar venue before that we know of. 7 creamy, sweet, mineral tasting Sydney rock oysters followed by 4 salty, vegetal, crisp Pacific oysters and the final one was the native Australian mud flat oyster, the Angasi with a full rich flavour. We’re glad to see that everybody loved the taste of the oysters and learning how taste can vary from one region to another. We would like to thank Tim Dumbrell, Tom Rupnik and our head-chef Kris Swiecinski, general manager Laura Sanna and marketing manager Derya Uzum for running the event smoothly and being amazing hosts and also a big thanks to all guests for accepting our invitation and joining in on our first oyster masterclass. Stay tuned for the next masterclass!

Judges Review:
“We expect an iconic spot such as Sydney Cove's Circular Quay to have an outstanding bar: few would be disappointed with the list at this oyster bar / seafood restaurant. The focus is on bubbly, vibrant whites and lightly-framed delicious reds. There's an eclectic range of internationals with Aussies well-represented both by established superstars and promising newcomers. As long as the sun is shining, it's a fun place to be.”
Welcome to the Oyster Bar Kris!
Did you know we have a super talented new head chef leading the team at SCOB? His name is Kris (right) he's from Poland and has a world of international experience, most recently Fish Shop at Potts Point. The other superstar in the pic is our sous chef Hendra (left), ex Centennial and Paddington Hotels.
Winter warming cocktails hit our list
Not sure what it sounds like to mix vodka and wine but we did and it's stunningly gorgeous. Red Wine Vodka Kiss is a mix of Belvedere vodka, Cinzano rosso, Clarendelle red wine, lime juice, a cinnamon quill & rosemary, served on the rocks. This is just one of several winter creations from our gun bar team.
Australian truffle season has started
The truffle season has started in Australia and the Black Golds have just landed at the Oyster Bar from the Truffle Farm in Canberra. Believe it or not they are perfect on just about everything from oysters to desserts. The season wont last long, so do yourself a favour and give them a go. 3 grams for only $18 to keep your taste buds happy...

I've walked past Sydney Cove Oyster Bar several times on my way to the Opera House and it always looked quite popular. It has a great view being right across from the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Matt and I head here for a lovely lunch to see if the food matches the gorgeous views.

In Short: Sydney Cove Oyster Bar delivers an unforgettable seafood experience. Freshly shucked oysters from all over the land are joined by a delicious selection of seafood dishes. If you get the chance, and depending on season, ask for the Storm Clams!
