If you were any closer to the Opera House, you'd be in the audience ... quoted the Sydney Morning Herald's Good Food Guide in 2000 when they awarded Peter Sullivan and Matthew Moran their Two Chefs Hats for the exemplary dining experience that is Aria Restaurant. Chef Moran is highly ambitious with more than just his choice of locations - same goes for his merging of ingredients - consider these (some may say eccentric) mains: Crispy Skin Snapper with saffron taglierini, baby artichoke and fennel and lobster butter; Rolled Roasted Kangaroo Island Chicken with a nori and chicken stuffing, miso and truffle broth; Baked Barramundi with pesto crust, potato fondant and roast tomato sauce; or Boudin of Bug Meat with taglieri, ocean trout roe and lime butter - all hovering around the $45 mark. Interesting stuff, ultimate Sydney view.
