I have often walked past this restaurant over the years as it was always full when ever I was wanting breakfast or a meal, but Sunday morning walking past to another place we decided to finally have breakfast here. We had the buttermilk pancake - not to my palate (not a pear person) but my partner loved it and the pear texture and poaching colour and the spice. The yoghurt sorbet balanced the sweetness very well. We both had the sugar-cured salmon which was a nice change to smoked salmon. Will be back to try other meals. The service was prompt, professional and welcoming.
The food, priced typically for the area, is yummy. Worth the trip if you’re a local but parking/transport is detrimental if you’re not.
Zinc is not somewhere you could rock as a loner. Not because the staff would treat you badly or because the menu isn't suitable, but because you would look around and see how much fun everyone was having with their big groups of friends and feel hopelessly left out. That in mind, this was the perfect venue to meet up with a long standing friend who I hadn't seen in a year - interesting but not too controversial menu choices, time conscious staff and a view of Potts Point human traffic to fill in any lull in conversation. We ordered pancakes with spiced pears and ricotta and a ham, provolone and mustard toastie. Each what we expected, well made and tasty and the menu was diverse enough that there was something for everyone. This place is a worthy contender in the vicious battle between potential brunch venues in Potts Point and should certainly be added to your folio of possibilities.
