The Tank Stream Hotel’s brasserie-style restaurant, Le Petit Flot, has been named ‘Brasserie/Cafe of the Year’ in the 2019 Tourism Accommodation Australia NSW Awards of Excellence.
Le Petit Flot, a prime Sydney CBD brasserie, won the title for the first time against strong competition from high-profile hotel restaurants in Sydney and the Blue Mountains.
The Tourism Accommodation Australia NSW Awards for Excellence are recognised as the hospitality and tourism sector’s most prestigious awards, honouring the achievement of excellence in a wide range of categories.
Tank Stream Hotel General Manager, Klaus Kinatader, and Le Petit Flot Executive Chef, Colin Yee, accepted the award at a glittering ceremony at The Star in Sydney.
Le Petit Flot, meaning the ‘little stream’, is named after the Tank Stream, which continues to flow directly under the hotel. The Tank Stream’s fresh water source was the reason for Sydney to be located where it is.
While Le Petit Flot’s menu boasts a French emphasis, it also pays homage to its NSW roots with a dedicated ‘Taste of NSW’ menu option that features prime local produce and the best of NSW wines.
Le Petit Flot offers a stylish and warm dining venue, with a private dining room capable of hosting functions for up to 30, and a separate dining area overlooking one of Sydney’s hidden laneways, the historic Curtin Lane.
Tank Stream Hotel GM, Klaus Kinateder, paid tribute to the cooking and service team who have helped fulfill the hotel’s goal of making Le Petit Flot one of Sydney CBD’s most attractive dining experiences.
“Our chefs Colin and Golam are acclaimed for the freshness of the produce they use and the presentation of their dishes, and the introduction of the new ‘Taste of NSW’ menu highlights our commitment to continually innovating and upgrading our menus,” said Mr Kinateder.
“There is no shortage of restaurants in the city centre, but there aren’t many restaurants of the style, quality and value as Le Petit Flot."
“We can offer a prime CBD location but also provide a sanctuary of peace and hospitality, with its relaxed ambience and first floor location overlooking Australia Square. With so many offices surrounding us we are seeing increasing demand from people wanting a quieter environment, brasserie atmosphere and value," he explained.
“It is also rare to be able to offer a private dining room in the heart of the city, and it has become a favourite for corporates and small groups throughout the year.”
Le Petit Flot is open for lunch and dinner Monday – Friday, and for Saturday night dinners.
