Where to spend the $300 voucher
Besa is the group’s latest hotspot. The Bondi tapas bar is built on Spanish small plates and Basque-style seafood, with cheesecake and churros to finish. With DJs spinning Spanish-inflected funk and house all night, good times are guaranteed. Plus, it just launched bottomless brunch on weekends ($110pp).
Nour serves Surry Hill’s most creative take on food from the Levant, all in a handsome space with an open kitchen. Go for the share-plate feast – expect the likes of samke harra (baked snapper), lamb collar with mujadarra, and house-made flatbread – or stretch your prize further with the $59 express lunch on Thursdays and Fridays.
Score a double-header in the CBD with restaurant Aalia and sibling spot Aalia Wine Room. The restaurant’s design seamlessly emulates the architecture of the iconic Harry Seidler “mushroom” building, which the venue overlooks in Martin Place. It serves contemporary takes on lesser-known Middle Eastern and North African dishes. Next door, its wine-first sibling offers a 235-label cellar alongside snacky plates. These two are the ultimate inner-city date-night duo. On weekdays, Aalia Wine Room also offers a $39 shared lunch menu.
Your prize will stretch furthest at Henrietta (Surry Hills, Bondi and Parramatta), a family-style Lebanese spot built around charcoal chicken. Tear into fresh flatbread with garlicky toum, smoky baba ganoush and shish-tawouk off the grill – then keep it going with spritzes and spicy Margs at the bar.
Plus, there’s much more to enjoy across the rest of the Esca portfolio, which also includes Japanese-leaning rooftop bar and restaurant Joji, and Surry Hills neighbourhood izakaya Ito.
