The 190-seat restaurant is spread over two levels with a large open-plan kitchen, cocktail bar, counter seats and communal tables designed by Kelly Ross of The Gentry in conjunction with Crone Partners, David Cole and the Long Chim design team.

Meaning ‘come and taste’, dishes include crunchy prawn cakes, beef skewers with cumin coriander and turmeric, and cured pork sausages spiked with chillies and ginger. For something more substantial, try the rich mussaman curry of beef with cardamom and coconut or deep-fried squid with garlic and peppercorns. Dessert includes a banana roti and durian ice-cream.

The cocktails were developed by renowned bartender James Connolly, with a list of wines selected by Greg Plowes. Read how James Connolly has created a cocktail list to pair with big, bold Thai flavours and take a look at some of Long Chim’s cocktails you can order that take you from refreshing pre-dinner drinks to after dinner libations.

Long Chim Sydney opens its doors for dinner on Monday 29th August with lunch coming soon.
