Fine dining is back, and Automata's tasting menu is better than ever

The industrial-chic Chippendale restaurant is serving my favourite dish, so far, of this year, reviews Callan Boys.

Burrata with shellfish oil is a "mainstay" at Automata.

Automata

Automata is more than a glam restaurant - its bar, run by a young and professional floor team, warrants a visit in its own right.

All hail then when you find someone who has made butter better. At Automata, the just warm rolls come with butter flavoured with anchovy, sunflower seeds and chicken juices. It's like you're slathering them with chicken gravy. Holy cow, it's good.
