Sydney eatery takes out top restaurant award (http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2007/08/16/1186857624337.html)
Sydney seafood restaurant Pier has taken out the top honour at the Australian Gourmet Traveller 2008 Restaurant Guide Awards in Melbourne.
Pier - owned by chef Greg Doyle - was named Restaurant of the Year, beating 400 other contenders reviewed in the magazine's 2008 Restaurant Guide.
Five Victorian establishments dominated the rest of the awards, including Melbourne's Rockpool Bar and Grill which was named Best New Restaurant, and Der Raum named Bar of the Year.
The magazine described Pier as 'sublime', adding its food, wine and overall service was "as seamless as anything in Australia".
