Our business was born in Bondi, and this place holds a deep place in our hearts - the beach, the community and their spirit make it so special.
Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone in the community who has been affected by this tragedy.
We are holding you close and sending strength, love, and support.

A Mr & Mrs Palmer love story—told in twirls of Spaghetti alla Vodka. 🍝✨ Tossed front of house in a molten Parmesan wheel and served up by the bride herself, because nothing says 'I do' like pasta, cheese and a little tableside theatre.

It’s Dave, our fearless leader, ideas man, incredible chef, passionate friend and father. He’s a big dreamer and his Liverpudlian charm and humility infuses everything we do (much like that whisper of delicious smoke from our that he’s always concocting new ways to use). There’s not enough room here to name all his favourite dishes du jour, but he’s always been mad for osso buco alla milanese or roast chicken with his mum’s roasties and all the trimmings.

A picture of seasonal indulgence. It’s our honey-glazed duck breast with confit duck leg pithivier, rainbow chard, apple, and lavender jus. The lavender might seem controversial, but it adds a whisper of fragrance that pairs beautifully with the rich and mellow duck and the sweet caramelisation on the duck skin. Trust us on this one.

From table decoration to plated perfection, keeping it fresh with only the juiciest heirlooms for this lululemon Australia and New Zealand ‘Together We Grow’ campaign launch earlier this summer, pulled together by the ever excellent Gt Studio Co.

Staff lunch. We fuel big thinking and creativity in our own kitchen first. This one’s a house-baked focaccia filled to the brim with sun blushed heirloom tomato, sharp cheddar and mortadella. Abundance at every angle, that’s our philosophy. https://cookandwaiter.com.au/

A very Saardé store launch at Wunderlich Lane. A good, nay, GREAT omen of brilliant things to come at Saltbox. We crafted a menu that was seasonal, fresh and matched the elegance and easy luxury of this beautiful store. Can’t wait to rub shoulders further with the Saardé Team when we move into Saltbox next year and congrats on the official opening of your new home.

It’s our Executive Chef Aidan in action. Aside from an excellent head of hair, he brings an incredible passion and talent to the table. He’s worked in Michelin-starred kitchens, with Gordon Ramsay at The Ritz Carlton and with Guillaume at the Sydney Opera House. His current favourite dish du jour is our honey glazed duck breast, confit duck leg pithivier, rainbow chard and apple with lavender jus. A case in point for his style of cooking, which is all about generosity and great ingredients.

A knock-out classic, cooked to perfection for your wedding/milestone birthday/private dinner? Nothing beats our grass-fed beef sirloin served with onion rings, salt, lemon and olive oil. Nothing. Served with condiments to boot—dijon, seeded mustard and a herby, anchovy laced dragoncello. https://cookandwaiter.com.au/
