Sail into a summer of flavours with Nelly & The Jackson!
Sydney Harbour has always been a stunning backdrop for a memorable evening, and The Jackson Dinner by Nelly Robinson is the perfect opportunity to make your next summer evening even brighter. The Jackson takes your typical harbour sunset cruise to the next level with a curated dining experience from acclaimed Chef Nelly Robinson.
Chef Robinson is known for his focus on showcasing the best of Australian produce and his menu for The Jackson Dinner reflects this philosophy, featuring fresh, seasonal ingredients sourced from local farmers and sustainable fisheries. Expect dishes that highlight native Australian ingredients alongside classic favourites, all prepared with the city’s vibrancy in mind.
The evening begins with a selection of canapés as you settle in and enjoy the harbour views. Delicately balanced bites like Sydney Rock Oysters with elderflower and finger lime or Wild Mushroom Jaffles with truffle and goat’s cheese offer a balanced introduction to the four-course feast ahead.
For the entree, the menu offers a choice between a classic Riverina Beef Carpaccio or a slightly lighter option like the Moana Snapper Tartare with a refreshing yellow tomato gazpacho. Vegetarians are well-catered with a Pumpkin Tart featuring smoked potato and feta.
The main course choices are equally tempting. Queensland Barramundi with wild mushrooms and caviar offers a luxurious seafood experience, while the Byron Bay Pork Chop with Australian harissa and kale provides a hearty and flavorful alternative. If you’re craving something heartier, red-meat lovers can also opt for the Riverina Beef Tenderloin, cooked to perfection and accompanied by black garlic. Sides are served family-style, allowing you to share and savour a selection of roasted vegetables and a green cos salad with a herbed dressing.
To top off the evening, a selection of delightful desserts awaits. Choose from a zesty Lemon Myrtle Tart with vanilla cream and meringue, a delicate Strawberry Consomme with infused meringue, or a decadent Macadamia Chocolate Mousse.
While the delectable food is undoubtedly a highlight of The Jackson Dinner, the experience is truly multifaceted. As you bite into each course, you’ll be treated to live entertainment and breathtaking views of Sydney Harbour as the city lights begin to twinkle. The event creates a luxurious yet connected atmosphere that brings the best of Sydney’s talent, lifestyle and produce onto the decks of The Jackson superyacht.
The Jackson Dinner by Nelly Robinson takes place on select Saturdays throughout the remainder of the year, giving you ample opportunity to experience this unique evening on Sydney Harbour. Book a seat for you and your favourite person here.
