Quay Restaurant Is Bringing Back Its Limited-Edition Snow Egg for a Nostalgic Ten-Day Stint

One of Sydney's most memorable desserts is making a comeback — but only temporarily. The coveted Snow Egg, the brainchild of Quay Restaurant's Executive Chef Peter Gilmore, is set to star on the venue's temporary experience menu with the help of American Express.

The acclaimed Snow Egg has not appeared on the menu since 2018 and was previously a crowd favourite. Its ten-year-long residence on Quay's dessert selection solidified the dish as a restaurant staple, and the dessert even starred on an episode of Masterchef back in 2010.

"I am honoured to be bringing back the Snow Egg for a very limited time," said Gilmore. "It has had a cult following since the early days of it being on the menu at Quay and holds such a special place in my heart."

The iconic dish will be available to diners for ten exclusive nights, from Saturday, May 25, to Saturday, June 15, in the form of four experience packages. All include the dessert, either paired with a glass of bubbles for $98, a glass of rosé for $136, a glass of 2007 Charles Heidsieck Blanc des Millénaires for $175, or a non-alcoholic feijoa fizz infused with cardamom and vanilla for $98.

This luxe dining package will be served in the venue's private Green Room for the ultimate experience. Bookings open to the public on Friday, April 19, on Quay Restaurant's website, with slots from 6pm through to final service at 9.45pm throughout the ten-day stint.
