SYDNEY - Fine Dining - Altitude Restaurant @ Shangri-La Hotel




SYDNEY - Fine Dining - Altitude Restaurant @ Shangri-La Hotel Sydney - I visited Altitude restaurant for dinner and I must say it was a really memorable experience. It's a beautiful restaurant located on the 36 level of Shangri-La hotel Sydney and the view was simply breath-taking!


It provided a relaxing ambience for the indulgence of contemporary Australian fine cuisine and the perfect place for a romantic night out. The floor to ceiling glass windows provided spectacular views of the Sydney Harbor Bridge as well as the Sydney Opera House. No wonder it is usually fully booked as it is one of Sydney's top favorite restaurant for tourists.

Chef de cuisine Matthew McCool worked in several top restaurants before moving to Altitude restaurant. He has previously worked for Aria Restaurant in Shangri-La Hotel Beijing as well as London's Michelin star restaurants. The menu at Altitude Restaurant is artful and creative, distinguished by its European influences. The delicious cuisine aims to bring dining to the next level with "inventive dishes that play with textures, temperatures and contrasting but complementing tastes". 


We ordered from the ala-carte menu and I must say the Salmon served with horseradish, watercress, pancetta soil tasted heavenly. It was cooked just right with a little pink so it just melts in your mouth. The Wagyu beef also tasted really delicious and tender. The Scallops cooked with black pudding, apple and Mt. Buffalo hazelnuts were fresh and tasted interestingly good! The Milk chocolate & hazelnut dessert was the perfect ending to a delightful dinner. Overall, it was a really delicious dinner and I would definitely come back again. Altitude is a fine dining restaurant that prides itself for using only the freshest Australian produce to leave all guests fully satisfied.

It was a lovely dinner and I was wearing my new dress bought from my favorite Australian designer Alannah Hill. I bought this dress together with Stefanie when we went shopping at Birkenhead Point :) I love her beautiful clothings as they are very feminine, sewn with many sequins, beadings and ribbons.
