1. Orana
Surry Hills
Because it’s the hottest ticket in town right this moment—provided you can snag a table. Widely considered one of the nation’s best, Adelaide’s Orana made a name for itself with exhilarating tasting menus that championed indigenous ingredients and the communities that produce them, proving that Australia’s larder could dice with the best in the world. This one-month residency brings chef Jock Zonfrillo to Surry Hills, with standout ingredients like crocodile bell lardo and bunya nut miso featuring on a 24-course tasting menu. Beg, borrow, steal—this is the best of the best.
