Credits to Chef Peter Gilmore, the Quay has been voted No.29 on the World's 50 Best Restaurants List (which makes it the highest ranked restaurant in Australia on that list!) in year 2012.
Chef Gilmore is well known for his creation of sea pearls. Strangely, we didn't see that on the menu at all. In any case, we skipped the Tasting menu and went for the 4-course menu (4 choices per course) which was priced at A$165 per pax.

Paper thin "wafers" that created an interesting combination of unique textures and flavours when eaten together... this was my favourite item for the night!
