This November, MasterChef favourite and renowned Vietnamese-Australian chef Tommy Pham will take over Delta Rue and Wentworth Bar at Sofitel Sydney Wentworth for a month of seafood, long lunches and vibrant Vietnamese flavours.
The collaboration launches on 29 October with Tommy’s Seafood Social, a one-night-only feast built around seafood and Vietnamese flavours, before Pham’s Long Lunch takes over Saturdays at Delta Rue throughout November. From 5 November, Hanoi Sticks & Sips will bring Tommy’s take on charcoal grilling to the Wentworth Bar terrace, before Tommy and the Delta Rue team come together for the Delta Rue Master Series later in the month.
Across the takeover, Tommy’s bold approach to Vietnamese cooking will meet Delta Rue’s Vietnamese-French style, with dishes ranging from Bay Bug & Crab Mì Quảng noodles to Bò Tái Chanh Beef Carpaccio and Dầu Cháo Quẩy Apple Tarte Tatin.
Tommy Pham says: “Vietnamese food has always been about generosity for me – big flavours, lots of dishes on the table and bringing people together. That’s what I want this month at Delta Rue to feel like. We’re having a lot of fun with the menus, luxurious seafood and charcoal grilling to long lunches, and I’m excited to get into the kitchen and share it all with Sydney.”
Tommy Pham x Delta Rue launches on 29 October and runs throughout November at Delta Rue and Wentworth Bar, Level 5, Sofitel Sydney Wentworth.
