The Ternary, Darling Harbour
Located at Novotel Sydney in Darling Harbour, The Ternary brings an innovative concept of dining with a trio of distinct yet integrated dining experiences in a stylish venue.
Dirty Martini with a View
With floor to ceiling windows offering views of the city skyline, you can be treated to bar bites at the Wine Bar, delicacies from the Asian Kitchen and well loved dishes from the Australian Grill – all under the same roof.
The Asian Kitchen

Naan Bread
The three pillars of The Ternary, as he calls them, start at the Wine Bar with a cellar door experience near the entrance. Wines and cheeses are available to taste, and guests are informed about each of the varieties before they take their seats.
Mint Yoghurt and Chutney
The second pillar is the Asian Kitchen which has a Tandoor oven, a yakitori grill, a wok station and a teppanyaki grill while the third is the Australian Grill with BBQ style cooking. In this relaxed style of dining, chefs are often seen interacting with guests particularly those lucky to be seated around the grill.
Betel Leafs
The tasting menu begins with tasty bites of Betel Leafs (3 pieces) with smoked flaked salmon topped with salmon pearls and fried shallots for texture.
The Ternary’s Fish 65 with Mint Yoghurt
Next is The Ternary’s Fish 65 with Mint Yoghurt which uses hake coated in Indian spices. The flaky fish is tender and juicy making one bite lead to another.

Discs of Seared Tuna are presented on top of somen noodle salad with toasted sesame seed dressing, bringing clean fresh flavours to the palate.

Pulled Peppered Beef in Crispy Pastry and Water Chestnut
Equally delicious is the Pulled Peppered Beef in Crispy Pastry and Water Chestnut that has been cooked in masterstock for 12 hours, wrapped in brik pastry and fried. The beef melts in the mouth and the tang from the tamarind sauce makes a great complement.
