Georges Mediterranean Bar and Grill
5A The Promenade
King St Wharf, Sydney
One of the first things that strikes you at King Street Wharf are the magnificent water views and Georges Mediterranean Bar and Grill is in prime position to absorb this.
There is inside and outdoor seating and we were very fortunate to be seated outside to be able to take in their beautiful views.
The weather was glorious which added to the visually appealing landscape of looking out at Darling Harbour and the Maritime museum.
Georges Mediterranean Bar and Grill is a great place to sit and eat and watch the world go by!
We both started with a glass of Stonefish Merlot - which displayed juicy plums with earthy overtones. This was a lovely wine and complimented our meal nicely.
Dips are a great favourite of ours so we started with a selection of all three available dips with Pita bread. The three were tzatziki, fava bean with red onion and capers and finally white Taramosalata. Individually they come with sourdough but we swapped in some pita bread with ours instead.
These dips all had wonderful flavours and we thoroughly enjoyed them. Tzatziki is a real crowd pleaser and the fava bean dip with the capers - oh nice! We really love capers, they go so well with so many things.
White Taramosalata is a roe (fish egg) based dip and both being great fish lovers we really enjoyed this smooth and tasty dip.
The pita bread held together well with the dips and was so nice and warm that we just had to order another serving!
Seeing Halloumi on the menu was a "must"as Sir gravitates to this! The Haloumi was served with compressed watermelon and mint.
The wonderful soft texture of the Halloumi together with the refreshing and vibrant watermelon and mint made for a great combination.
This was an amazing dish!
Next we had lovely Hortokeftedes - which is wild green dumplings, served with fresh herbs and yoghurt.
The dumplings were deep fried and nicely crisped with generous fillings of "wild greens".
We thoroughly enjoyed them as we we constantly dipped them in the ever popular and oh so yummy yoghurt.
Then we moved on to some Spanakopita - a favourite - which is filo pastry filled with spinach, cheese and spicy onion.
This is a popular dish and not just with Sir and Mlady. The generous serving of this amazing filling encased in a wonderfully crispy filo pastry was something we thoroughly enjoyed.
We also decided to try the Kreatopita. This is filo pastry cigars of slow cooked goat with fresh goat curd. How good was this! The goat had been slow cooked for 8-9 hours which made for an incredibly tender and wonderfully tasting dish. Yum Yum!
Both Filo pastry dishes were generously sized and you could see them plump with their "goodies" inside.
Sir had another wine - this time a Greek wine. He chose Lafazanis Agiorgitiko from the region of Nemea. It was a bright ruby colour with aromas of cherry, plum and black pepper. The colour really was beautiful that Mlady just had to have a sip and thought, as did Sir, that this was a really lovely Red!
The service here is great and the food is wonderful! Then there are those views!
Sir and Mlady dined courtesy of Zomato and Georges Mediterranean Bar and Grill. We would also like to thank Efe and Petra for looking after us so well.
