Dine Out: Silk Road Sling and Beef Nayyeh Special

Aalia serves some of Sydney’s best Middle Eastern cuisine, and it’s always exploring lesser-known flavour combinations. So it makes perfect sense that it’s putting on a limited-time snack and cocktail pairing exclusively for Dine Out 2026.

Kickstart your night with Aalia’s Silk Road Sling, a bright, bubbly blend of Belvedere vodka, lychee, coconut and oolong soda. It’s the type of cocktail you can’t help but order more of. Sip one alongside beef nayyeh – a dish that’s comparable to a Middle Eastern steak tartare. It’s rare beef tri-tip, rhubarb, black cardamom, tahini butter atop a buckwheat cracker. And you can get both for just $25.
