Firefly: Tapas-Bar-Wine, Walsh Bay (31 July 2010)

On the promenade, Pier 7, 17 Hickson Road, Walsh Bay NSW 2000


Intimate wine bar

I hope to revisit this small and intimate tapas and wine bar which only sits about 40 people which suits couples looking for a special night out. I was only passing by after dinner at the nearby CafĂ© Sopra for some dessert this time. The Burnt Orange Pannacotta with cardamon tuile ($12) was nicely presented in a shallow dish and I liked the refreshing topping of orange slices although the consistency of the pannacotta was quite thick compared to what you’d expect it to be. I tend to prefer when a pannacotta sits above the dish so you can check its wobbliness. Service was friendly and I enjoyed it with a lovely dessert wine. The promenade walkway is a great spot to leisurely walk around on a nice night. The renovations of the finger wharfs has certainly made the area much more safer and attracted new and exciting restaurants to try.

Other visits to Firefly:
