Rumour has it Zsa Zsa Gabor once stayed at the Sebel Townhouse and ordered room service at 2am.

We can't confirm what she ordered. We can tell you that the people who know this building best are the ones who keep coming back.

The Divino Backstage Pass is our way of recognising them. Every time you spend with us, you earn points — redeemable for food and drinks. First access to deals before anyone else. And when a new performer is announced for Music Monday, you hear about it before the room fills up.

Some tables are just better than others. The Backstage Pass gets you to one of them.

Dry-ageing a duck breast is not the fast route.

It concentrates. It deepens. It takes something already good and turns the volume up in a way that a pan alone never could. What comes out the other side is a different kind of duck — the fat rendered properly, the skin a study in patience, the flavour somewhere between game and memory.

Beetroot purée underneath. Witlof alongside, bitter and necessary. The pear jus, slow and unhurried, finishing the plate the way the final note finishes a song.

Winter, doing what it does best.

Before there was a restaurant, there was a coastline.

The Amalfi coast in June. Positano at dawn before the tourists arrive. A kitchen in Matera where the bread is made from a starter older than the building.

This is where the Zuppa di Patate e Porri comes from — not the recipe, but the instinct. Potato and leek, the kind of soup that exists in every Italian grandmother's kitchen under a different name, finished here with smoked nuts and crispy enoki because the south has never been afraid of a good contrast.

Book your table through 7Rooms. Have a long lunch. Let the kitchen do what it does.

Then, at the end of the meal — we hand you the dice.

Roll two sixes and the whole thing is on us. Every dish. Every bottle. The lot.

The odds are honest. The offer is real. The Beef Short Rib with celeriac purée and red wine jus tastes exactly the same whether you're paying for it or not — which is to say, very good.

Book via link in bio. The dice are waiting.

Did you know?

Book a table before 2pm and your meal begins with a complimentary spritz on arrival.

In Southern Italy, this isn't a promotion — it's just how lunch starts. A cold glass, a warm room, something worth looking forward to on the other side of a Thursday morning.

The Caramelle di Zucca is already on the table in our heads. It should be on yours too.

Pumpkin and ricotta folded into pasta shaped like little gifts. Porcini risotto finished with crispy Parma ham and smoked scamorza. Duck breast, dry-aged, with beetroot purée and a pear jus that has been reducing since this morning.

This is what winter tastes like in Southern Italy.

And right now, it's what winter tastes like at the corner of Elizabeth Bay Road and Greenknowe Avenue — in a building that has been hosting remarkable meals since before most of us were born.

The winter menu is here.

Florence gave us the Negroni. Palermo gave us the Spritz argument. We gave you the Smooth Criminal.

Smoky mezcal. Peach purée. A hit of citrus. The glass rolled in a chilli lime salt mix that sits somewhere between the south of Italy and somewhere altogether more dangerous.

It's the kind of drink that makes you stop mid-sip and raise an eyebrow. In the best possible way.

Somewhere between the antipasti and the secondi, the meeting agenda stops mattering.

Our express lunch is built for exactly this — the kind of meal where the table does more for a working relationship than any boardroom could. Order together. Share a bottle. Let the kitchen do the rest.

The Sebel Townhouse has always understood that the best business gets done at a good table. We haven't changed that.
