The Botanica Vaucluse just turned 10, and one night was never going to cut it. This August, Sydney’s 100% gluten-free fine diner is spending the entire month celebrating with a series of exclusive artisan collaborations that trace a path across Italy, from Naples to Calabria and the Amalfi Coast, all without a single gluten-free menu compromise.
Known as one of Sydney’s few Coeliac Australia-certified restaurants, The Botanica has spent the past decade proving coeliac-safe dining can be just as indulgent as any traditional feast.
The month-long program includes:
- An exclusive Amalfi-inspired lemon tart by acclaimed gluten-free pastry chef Sebastien Sans Gluten, available throughout August
- A towering cannoli display handcrafted by Daniele Barresi, the Calabrian pastry chef behind Eden Pasticceria, with every table of two or more receiving a complimentary gluten-free cannolo on Saturday 8 August
- Chef Abby James (ex-Quay, ex-Jonah’s) leading the kitchen behind it all
