Book Direct with the Owner at Olio Kensington Street with Accommodation Sunshine Coast in Sydney, for all your restaurant and Food Reservations.
Chippendale\u2019s burgeoning Kensington Street precinct gets another injection of exciting new international food talent. Sicilian-born, award-winning chef Lino Sauro (Gattopardo, Singapore) opens Olio Kensington Street in early 2017 to show Sydney why Sicilian is the new Italian. Olio Kensington Street (Italian for olive oil) is located in the beautifully restored The Old Rum Store with a contemporary indoor dining room plus lush rooftop terrace overlooking Chippendale. Sauro comes from a long lineage of self-sufficient Sicilian farmers where he grew up with meals that were created with the quality produce grown on the property. This translates into Sauro\u2019s menu with dishes that reflect a strong connection to his Sicilian roots. Keeping it in the family, Sauro sources his olive oil \u2013 the base of all his dishes \u2013 from the family\u2019s Sicilian farm. Typical of the region, seasonal seafood, wild fennel, raisins, saffron and couscous are hero ingredients on Olio Kensington Street\u2019s menu. For the past 10 years, Sauro has lived in Singapore heading up his first solo Sicilian restaurant venture showing locals that Italian food can be more than pizza and heavy, creamy sauces. Now it\u2019s Sydney\u2019s turn.
