Located on King Street in Newtown and dog friendly, it was a nice open space with friendly staff and a chilled atmosphere. The bread was atypical of sourdough, chewy and delicious. The anchovy cigars were nice but way too salty. It needed to be eaten with the bread to balance out as it was just overwhelmingly salty, even for an anchovy lover like myself. This was amazing, it was a really light dish that balanced the creaminess of the scallops and hazelnut milk with yuzu and candied lemon. The button mushrooms added a nice textural element and were sliced thinly so you could enjoy it even raw. Honestly really nice, light entree dish that you could possibly recreate at home with various other substitute elements.

By Katya Wachtel. By Matheus. Plus, a double-beef burger with cheese, onions and house sauce on a potato bun. Thursday to Sunday, 12pm—3pm. For the beer selection, that means 12 rotating taps pouring wild-fermented lambic styles from around the world, plus more approachable options like Reschs. Cocktails carry the fermentation theme: spritzes with tequila and house-made tepache a Mexican beverage made with fermented pineapple rind and sour Negronis mixing lambic vermouth. The menu, overseen by group executive chef James MacDonald ex- Restaurant Hubert , is built for all day-dining and gives fermented ingredients a starring turn. You could start with some anchovy rice crackers and house-baked beer bread with cultured butter. Then follow up with large plates for the table like koji-roasted chook, and desserts including a dark chocolate pudding with whiskey miso caramel and banana gelato. The space is bright and breezy, with enormous French windows looking out onto King Street. Timber is everywhere: a bartop made from old railway sleepers, tabletops hewn from recycled French-oak barrels, and floors from an old French barn. The building's past life is acknowledged, with the remains of the old Happy Chef logo still painted on the main wall. A six-metre-high Reschs mural lives upstairs on the mezzanine. Contact Details.

It's Friday. The potato chips here were gloriously fried, thick and crunchy and the perfect vehicle for the rich pate.

The puffed rice added a nice crunch and it contained betel leaf and lime. I had never really enjoyed eating betel leaves before and the bitterness cut through the thick beef flavours.

The bustling bar and restaurant seems to be one of the busiest spots on King Street, and for good reason. The downstairs kitchen and bar are inviting and casual with a mix of low and high top tables. The room feels like a warehouse minus the grunge with exposed wood, large windows and a long kitchen and bar top giving the space a sense of grandeur. The upstairs dining setting is more refined and intimate, perfect for date nights. The drinks list is long featuring local and international specialty craft beers, natural and classic wines, and some unusual cocktails showcasing their pride in fermentation. It was not too sweet, rather light and refreshing as a Tom Collins should be, without the acidity. There are also 12 taps of rotating Lambic beers, ciders and seltzers to really make you choose with some interrogation. With leather seating, it feels luxe and worlds away from the bustle of King Street. The fish sauce caramel is the perfect accompaniment; not too sweet, not too salty, a little bit sticky, but perfectly paired with the rich parfait. We were happy to have leftover bread to mop it all up, as it was delicious.

Case in point: the chicken liver pate with fish sauce caramel served with potato chips is simultaneously sweet, salty and piquant — a terrific umami hit. The contrast of delicate and meaty is reflected in the decor of the split-level loft, with polished concrete floors softened by brushed suede booths and warm wooden tables. Knowing it was a blood pancake and having it served with onions made me think it would be a mostly savoury dish but the consistency was very pancake like and quite sweet. The other entree we ordered was the raw beef with puffed rice and herbs. Executive Chef James MacDonald formerly of Hubert and Head Chef Jesse Warkentin, bring to the menu a collision of traditional French influence and exciting Japanese flavours, delivered with great seasonal ingredients and gorgeous plating flair. The bavette steak with burnt garlic and egg yolk sauce was nice but nothing special to write home about. Smalls might include a lively beef tartare, or pickled mussels with celery and smoked cream.

Odd Culture has set up shop in the space formerly occupied by King Street dumpling institution Happy Chef, left vacant since a devastating fire in Now, a French-leaning slick diner and wine bar combo has risen, phoenix-like, out of the literal and proverbial ashes — with approval from the Happy Chef crew — to bring an exciting new venue to Newtown's busiest strip.
