A table for two, right by the door, and the vibe is Sydney cool, a big old warehouse with neon lights transformed to wine bar and food by one of Australia’s most prominent chefs.
The lighting made for a nice subdued mood – and terrible for photos, but our three choices – a beet salad, truffle fries (how do they get such a truffley flavour into them?) and some long-cooked lamb – were pretty much perfect.
With a glass of wine, and some Mangan-branded water, served up by a series of young European wait staff, friendly and efficient, it was a great place to grab a bite after seeing an art exhibition opening at a Danks Street gallery.
