From the lowercase "m" to the up-to-the-minute interior design, the word here is "cool". Clean lines, elegant curves, timber, stainless steel and crisp white linen combine to create an atmosphere of contemporary elegance. As you enter, you cannot miss the cleverly designed space divider that doubles as storage for wine bottles. In the kitchen chef Cath Claringbold serves up excellent modern Australian fare, with imaginative Mediterranean and Middle Eastern influences, such as spicy lamb cutlets with couscous. Desserts are worth waiting for. The crostili, with its layers of glazed banana slices is highly recommended.
