Opera Kitchen

Long a fan of having a latte at the Opera Bar, with the spectacular view of the Opera House, Circular Quay and the Harbour Bridge... it was neat to discover that there is now a kiosk just down from it.  No ordinary kiosk... Kenji, Cloudy Bay, Miss Chu, Becasse Bakery, Charlie and Co. is the going fare here.  Well priced food, in what just might be the best view in the world.  Everyone wins!

You are well positioned to work off lunch, seeing as you are positioned just under the Opera House.  Pose for photos on the stairs, or in the forecourt between the sails, or with the Harbour Bridge in the background.  You can study the the exterior shells from this area... and realize that that there are thousands of small tiles in varying shades of white and cream that make up the white sails of the Opera House.
