Pialligo Estate announces opening date and bookings are open now!
Posted on
Start your engines, people. Bookings to dine at Pialligo Estate’s Pavillion Restaurant are now open, and there’s a new Executive Chef at the helm.
Set to open on 4 July, hatted chef Stefano Mondonico is taking the reins in the kitchen. Stefano landed his Sydney Morning Herald, Good Food Guide hat in 2023 at Sydney restaurant Gowings.
Inspired by the venue’s country-estate atmosphere, the opening menu features Australia’s finest lamb, Magra from Oberon, Sydney rock oysters from Pambula, Snowy River trout and rare-breed Wollemi duck from the Hunter Valley region. The hearty offering is perfect for winter in Canberra.
“We’re sourcing from farming communities in the Canberra region, the Snowys, the South Coast and regional New South Wales,” says Stefano.
You can see the full menu and book at pialligoestate.com.au. Each guest who dines in the opening week will receive a glass of Champagne Jacquart, a grand cru champagne, on the house.
Along with the opening of the Pavillion Restaurant, Anthony is launching the events side of the business which is being delivered by his company Create Catering, known best in the Canberra region for venues like Olleyville at Shaw Vineyard Estate, the Gundaroo Inn and as the former operator at the Australian War Memorial.
