Guests can expect a menu built around bold, shareable dishes, including the restaurant’s Mooloolaba prawn toast with gochu mayonnaise, hiramasa kingfish and a Southern Thai yellow curry. The Crown Perth menu also features dishes such as wagyu tartare, sweet potato salad and a feed-me option designed for group dining.

Sinclair established Sum Yung Guys in Noosa with fellow chefs Jeremiah Jones and Michael Rickard after appearing on the eighth season of MasterChef Australia. The restaurant has become known for punchy flavours, premium produce and a lively approach to Asian-inspired small plates.
