Overview
Guillaume Brahimi may well be Australia's busiest man. Only months after taking over the dining room at Paddington's Four In Hand, Brahimi is back at it again, announcing he'll be opening Bistro Guillaume in Sydney's CBD next month.
As well as The Four in Hand, Brahimi currently runs his namesake restaurant Guillaume, also in Paddington. But this new CBD resto — which was announced towards the end of last year — steps away from fine dining, and will be a new iteration of his flagship French bistro enterprise, Bistro Guillaume. This will be his third bistro (the other two are located in Melbourne and Perth), and will see him serve up a classic, protein-heavy French menu with a dessert offering that will bring a happiness tear to your eye.
Located in the Suncorp Building on George Street, the new Bistro G will continue the trend established by it's predecessors. The restaurants are known for their use of playful textures and pops of vibrant green to offset the old-world luxury oozing from every sconce, and this one will follow suit along with some unique touches from Sydney interior designer Blainey North.
At the moment the only clue pointing to the restaurant's look is an image of the signage in silver instead of the iconic green. The venue is set to open in August, so for now we can only speculate wildly about colour schemes.
Bistro Guillaume Sydney is set to open in August in the Suncorp Building at 259 George Street, Sydney. Keep checking back for updates closer to the launch.
