Live at the CortileInterContinental Hotel
117 Macquarie St, Sydney CBD
Good food, good drinks and beautiful music in decadent surroundings at very reasonable prices - sound good? Then you need to get along to "Live at the Cortile" at the InterContinental Hotel Sydney. We went in April and again in June. The next one is on 7th August so book early - its absolutely great!
This is just some of the food we had the pleasure of eating on our last visit. Basically for only $60 per person you get eight items of food each, and a cocktail, and beautiful music in wonderful surroundings!
It doesn't get any better than this! We had six savoury items and two sweet ones - and it's surprisingly filling.
We were listening to music from Brahms and Mozart and eating food matched with the music - how good is this! The next SSO Live at the Cortile Session is on 7 August. The food is just as good too being in two sets of four items. For the next session Set 1 consists of mushroom/oregano/slow cooked quail egg/brioche/butter; mini French onion soup; salmon en croute; pulled wagyu brisket/chestnut/Heidi Gruyere foam.
Set 2 consists of smoked duck/pumpkin/roasted chestnut; salmon meuniere/leek tart tatin/kale chips.Then two desserts are hailala vanilla iles flottantes/caramelised almond; cardamon creme brulee.
Then add a champagne cocktail to sip on and you get the picture about the food and beverages - top quality.
Live at the Cortile with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra is an amazing way to spend an evening. We've been twice now - this time with two prize winners from a competition on our site (actually won by their daughter Michelle) - and we had lovely company in Silvio and Nora who were charming.Sir and Mlady (and Silvio and Nora) were guests of the InterContinental Hotel. Special thanks to Lexi Penfold from Pulse Communications for arranging our visit and the prize!
