Letra House- Sydney, NSW

I’ve always had a soft spot for tapas- the idea of small bites, shared with company and excellent alcohol. A true embodiment of variety and a community meal.

Sydney has an excellent balance of traditional elements and modernised takes on wonderful classics- a city truly moulded by an undying respect to tradition, modern takes often distill the elements of the classic into its purest form before finally choosing to adapt it. This is a sense of respect I can greatly appreciate as a foodie, identifying the classics and the essence of a dish before evolving it, bringing it into modern times.

With a set menu priced at 90pp with 9 dishes on their sample set menu, Letra’s set menu is quite a steal when you take into account the quality of the dishes that are produced by their kitchen. Letra House was quite a find in an unexpected corner of the city- the cuisine a tasteful blend of modernity into the traditional small plates served for tapas. Their drinks menu is as extensive as their food menu, bringing a significant variety of wines, cocktails and drinks to each dining experience.

I would love to return to try more from their assorted menus and to experience the seasons through their lens.
