From now until August 31, Marrow transforms The Baker and the Bottleman’s first-floor dining room into a destination for quality steaks, unconventional cuts and flame-led cooking. While the menu retains the structure of a classic steakhouse, the dishes are defined by inventive flavour pairings. Think crispy barramundi croquettes with fermented soy bean and chilli aioli; Sichuan beef tartare enriched with smoked oil and confit egg yolk; and Typhoon Shelter-style roasted bone marrow paired with toasted focaccia.
The grill menu features Australian Wagyu bavette and New Zealand Lumina lamb, alongside mains such as yellow croaker with pepper and salted egg emulsion, and blue crab rigatoni. Save room for dessert: the classic tiramisu receives a chocolate chip cookie twist, while the Paris brest is reimagined with peanut praline and a drizzle of salted caramel.
