Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron, Peel Street, Kirribilli


Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron, Peel Street, Kirribilli

This has been a family favourite for a casual BBQ over the years. It's a great location, on the harbour, with private dining rooms, function rooms, accommodation and downstairs they have the 'cook your own' facilities for a BBQ. The deck looks out towards The Heads and it's the perfect vantage point to watch the boats sail by.

There's a good selection of meat, chicken and seafood that you can purchase to cook and then a buffet salad bar that's quite impressive.

My favourite part of the Squadron is the wine cellar - it's sandstone on the outside and is big enough to fit 20 people with floor to ceiling wooden wine racks. There is a great selection of wines inside and if I had unlimited funds I'd design one just like it for my place.

Tonight was our recovery BBQ after NYE. Perfect location but the stifling heat made it uncomfortable to sit outside. At 8.45pm the southerly buster kicked in and we watched the boats tumble around in the Harbour and the gale force winds wreak havoc with the trees - it was a freakish display after such a ridiculously hot day.
