Immerse yourself in the warmth, flavours and hospitality of Italy in the heart of North Sydney at Antica Dining on Miller Street. This new ristorante – nestled within the restored 1909 heritage-listed Montrose House - is designed to bring people together to create lasting memories, one delightful mouthful at a time.
Settle into elegant surrounds of white-clothed tables, walls adorned with artwork and chandelier-style lighting to peruse an authentic menu that honours tradition and embraces modern techniques.
Mixologist Harrison Della Cioppa recommends pairing your menu choice with a Cielo Viola cocktail:
"This is the perfect sip for Autumn – bright citrus and floral notes with a smooth, velvety finish. It’s refreshing yet comforting,” he explains.
"The lavender syrup is made in-house using fresh lavender from our herb garden and the egg whites come from our free-range chickens.”
Harrison says the cocktail’s name is a nod to its dreamy hue, wild blueberry and lavender notes that make it feel like golden hour in a glass – in Italian, ‘Cielo Viola’ means ‘violet sky’.
Try this cocktail on a Friday afternoon to relax after a long and stressful work week. Alternatively, you could take the party home and concoct the
perfect drink to usher in the weekend.
