Sake Restaurant and Bar Is Coming to Double Bay
Shaun Presland's 'gramworthy new-style sushi and top-notch sake pairings are coming to the east.
Double Bay's having its fair share of hypeworthy openings of late, with newbies like Chinta Kechil and About Life sparking the curiosity of more western-living Sydneysiders. This December, the eastern suburb will see another top-tier addition to the dining scene with the opening of a brand new venue for acclaimed Japanese hat-winner Saké Restaurant and Bar.
The newest project from Urban Purveyor Group (the team behind Ananas Bar and Brasserie, Bavarian Bier Cafe, The Cut Bar and Grill and Swine and Co.), Saké is set to open in December at 33 Cross Street, beneath the InterContinental Hotel. With sushi master and executive chef Shaun Presland commandeering the menu, the Double Bay establishment will serve the contemporary Japanese cuisine Saké is already celebrated for — joining hatted sister venues in The Rocks and Brisbane, alongside its Melbourne counterpart. We're talking 'gramworthy new-style sushi to significantly impress your date.
"The launch of Saké Double Bay is a great addition to the Group and a welcomed expansion of the Saké brand as it allows us to take a very successful concept outside of Sydney’s CBD," says John Szangolies, proprietor at Urban Purveyor Group. "The venue will allow Saké customers to call in for cocktails, pull up a seat at the sushi bar or settle in with friends for the evening and savour the full Saké experience."
The brand new Japanese eatery features indoor seating for 120 (with outdoor for another 30) along with a brand new bar. Of course, the restaurant's namesake won't be left out of this; with Saké's knowledgable staff serving up an impressive range of sake and shochu pairings with your chosen morsels. While you'll need to bring a padded-out wallet, you won't regret a bite.
