Gin & Jazz at The Apollo
Spend a Sunday afternoon listening to laidback tunes while sipping pink martinis and feasting on a Greek banquet.
Overview
Gin & Jazz is back at The Apollo for another year. Every session brings you four hours of live, laidback grooves, which you can match with a $95 banquet – or all your favourite dishes.
If you go for the former, you'll start with Beverage Director Matt Whiley's pink martini — a sweet yet herby mix of Four Pillars gin, Oscar vermouth, salted strawberry and bay leaf. Then, it'll be straight into the banquet, which consists of nine of The Apollo's classic dishes.
Start with olives and pickles, grilled pita, tzatziki and bonito crudo with tomato tartare, before moving onto saganaki cheese with honey oregano, alongside a village salad. The main is oven-baked lamb shoulder alongside roasted potatoes, while watermelon and ouzo makes for a refreshing dessert.
As for the jazz, it's happening on the last Sunday of every month between May to September, from 12–4pm. Catch guitarist Arthur Washington and his band on Sunday, June 29 and Sunday, August 31, and the Soundcliff Jazz Trio on Sunday, July 27 and Sunday, September 28.
