Saint Peter to mark 10 years of innovation

The best meal I had in 2025 was undoubtedly dinner at Saint Peter in Sydney - in the restaurant's new home at the Grand National Hotel. 

Josh and Julie Niland are masters of the art of hospitality. 

The multiple courses of seafood were of exemplary quality - and the service was of a rare standard of excellence. 

Niland celebrates fish in all its glory - and makes even unfashionable cuts a treat. This is food that is innovative and inspired. 

It was fascinating to watch him conducting his kitchen brigade like a conductor leading an orchestra (above). 

Saint Peter will celebrate its 10th birthday in September - with details of the celebration to follow. 

In the meantime, Saint Peter will be offering seafood all over the Easter holiday this year - a serious treat. 

From Good Friday to Easter Sunday, Saint Peter will be open for both lunch and dinner over all three days. And for an extra experience you can stay the night in the recently opened hotel rooms.
