After taking on a new role with a mission to raise the bar in regards to pub dining, Julian Nikiel (Alala’s, Oaks Hotel, Neutral Bay) saw all his plans scuppered when the pandemic landed. In a venue used to 1500 guests at a time and a huge kitchen crew, they not only had to let almost the entire brigade go, but devise a menu that could keep money coming in and customers happy too. Now with restrictions easing, Nikiel’s ethos of quality produce cooked simply is back on the agenda with the heavy momentum of promise into 2021.
