‘We thought that was very special because the dinner table was always the most important thing,’ he explained.
He added: ‘Sydney Harbour is only one of the most iconic locations in the entire world. We were kind of thinking about what other locations you could compare it to, maybe Times Square or, you know, Hollywood Boulevard or the Hollywood sign, but it is absolutely gorgeous. I cannot wait to see the restaurant.’
