The Star Brisbane will open its third and final Sky Deck venue, in the Queen’s Wharf complex, next week.
Sky Deck Executive Chef Shayne Mansfield said signature restaurant Aloria would open on Wednesday, October 30.
Mr Mansfield said the restaurant, which soars 100m above the precinct, was Brisbane’s newest rooftop dining destination and the hero of The Star Brisbane’s Sky Deck trio which included open-air bar, Cicada Blu and all-day dining experience Babblers.
He said Aloria’s carefully curated a la carte menu showcased a selection of simple yet elegant dishes, allowing locally-sourced steak and seafood to shine through woodfire and grill techniques.
“With sustainability and minimal waste in the kitchen at the core of my culinary journey, these principles have been strongly considered across the menu design phase of all three Sky Deck venues.”
“Aloria’s Smoked Carrot Tartare involves smoking the body of the carrot to create the tartare filling, followed by the sauce from the carrot skin, the green tops are then cooked to form a cracker, with the dish completed by cooking red capsicums over charcoal to produce a sauce. The whole dish is prepared without any food waste, which is something we are immensely proud of.”
Mr Mansfield said the Aloria experience wasn’t just about the food.
“From our considered arrival via an exclusive entrance to unparalleled views from the mountains to the bay and extensive beverage pairings, Aloria offers an elevated and unique dining experience that I cannot wait to share with Brisbane.”
