After a winter holiday break in July, Collabor8Women has the pleasure of inviting you to experience the divine cuisine and hospitality of Bistro Rex in Sydney’s Potts Point, owned and operated by Baci Moore (pictured left).

Bistro Rex is a sophisticated Sydney take on a modern Parisian bistro. Head Chef Leigh McDivitt has a passion for local produce, a nose-to-tail philosophy and a love of cooking with fire, charcoal and using different woods for flavour.

Baci’s inviting atmosphere is based on her extensive experience managing some of Sydney's hottest restaurants, including Cruise Dining and Bar, Tabou and Longrain. She later opened Spice Temple with renowned chef Neil Perry. Baci has also travelled extensively, including across France, which provided the inspiration for Bistro Rex.

“I feel the guest is looking for a dining experience where they feel just as important as the marvellous creation they are devouring," says Baci.

In the spirit of Collabor8Women, Baci’s bespoke menu for our August lunch will include a selection of wines from Beautiful Isle, produced by leading Tasmanian female winemaker Cynthea Semmens. As a little girl she planted the first grape vine on her family estate (Marion's Vineyard) on the Tamar River in Deviot, Tasmania.
