Sails On The Bay

Surrounded by glass, Sails on the bay is a Melbourne restaurant which sits one metre from the golden sands of Elwood Beach making the bay your dining canvas.The sun sets right outside our windows, sparkling on the waters of Port Phillip Bay. The view is uninterrupted and on any given day you can view a cruise liner sailing across the bay, a wind surfer or at night the flickering lights of the West Gate bridge sparkle in the distance.

Editorial


Resting a mere metre from the golden sands of Elwood beach, Sails on the Bay is the perfect spot for a relaxed lunch or a romantic dinner for two. The view of Port Phillip Bay is simply stunning, especially at dusk when the sun sets directly in view, swallowed whole by the sea beyond. Indoors sails hang from overhead as staff unobtrusively make this dining experience one to remember.

Chef Derek Fuller is back in the kitchen with a menu that's a perfect combination of seafood and non-fish dishes. Start with an entree of marinated Atlantic salmon in shallot, lemon, white wine and herb dressing with a Moreton Bay bug salsa of ginger, chilli and coconut, or the chicken and tarragon ravioli with baby spinach and white wine veal jus. Follow with a main of teriyaki seared tuna with soba noodles, shitake and bok choy, served with a chilli, ginger, soy, coriander and star anise broth, or the roast loin of lamb, wild mushroom duxelle, boulangere potato, saute of black trumpet mushroom, turnip and sugar snaps with port wine jus. Finish with the dark chocolate truffle torte, raspberry coulis and white chocolate sorbet or the prune and almond tart with prune and brandy ice-cream and a brandy anglaise. The predominantly Australian wine list offers excellent variety with prices to suit.
