Zabou - Sydney Australia

I went twice lately:<br/ <br/ First time was a great lunch. Everyone in my large group was full of praise for their respective food barramundi, normal fish 'n ' chips or burgers. You can even take a wide variety of drinks from downstairs up.<br/ <br/ Second time was at night after work. There was a limited dinner menu. However, the four items they did which included steak chicken schnitzel were very good from my experience and the looks of the other dishes in my group. (They also had a variety of snacks/chips dishes that aren 't sufficiently substantial). Live music was good.

Tucked away upstairs in Sydney’s CBD at Club York is the new and improved Zabou Bar and Grill. Inspired by New York City, Zabou’s new menu features an eclectic mix of cuisines and influences (as well as some very clever puns), just like the melting pot that is the Big Apple. <br/ <br/ We tried a variety of hotdogs, burgers and milkshakes, all of which were presented beautifully and tasted just as good. The Red October hotdog contained an insanely juicy kransky with sauerkraut and sun dried tomato pesto it’s a handful of a dog but every bite packed a wonderful punch. The DIrty Bird burger is a must try for anyone who fancies themselves as a burger connoisseur. It is a monster of a burg; a huge piece of crunchy tender fried chicken is sandwiched between a soft and sweet milk bun, accompanied by cheddar, bacon, lettuce, tomato, pickles and a beautiful chipotle mayo. <br/ <br/ The milkshakes are also a very decadent sweet treat. We sampled the Peanut Butter Maple and Salted Caramel Pretzel shakes just reading those words on the menu felt naughty. They were amazing shakes; super tasty, with many dimensions of flavours. If you’re after something from the bar, Zabou’s cocktail menu is also quite fabulous. Our favourite was the Frosty Fruit, which tastes just like your favourite childhood ice block, except it will get you tipsy and now that you’re a grown up you can have as many as you like!<br/ <br/ Zabou has gone through a highly successful reinvention. The menu reflects current trends whilst also having its distinct twist, and there are many menu items which I think have the potential to become new classics in the Sydney foodie scene, particularly in the burger community. Zabou is the perfect place for lunch with the coworkers or 5 o’clock drinks and nibbles with mates. It’s a relaxed and casual place in the heart of the city so there is really no excuse not to visit!

Thought this place was fantastic! Service was amazing, and I was overall extremely pleased! We met the owner and the chef, and it was great to see how passionate they both were about serving good food! Headed down one night and we had 'The In-Fidel ' which was delicious and my personal favourite of their burgers... the 'dirty bird ' which looked and tasted outstanding! It had southern fried chicken, crumbed cheddar, lettuce, tomato, bacon and chipotle mayo! Holy moly! What a burger! My fabourite meal of the night was their BBQ baby back ribs... they are slow cooked in a chefs special bbq sauce basting, which are then chargrilled. This BBQ baste will change your life. I could not get enough of it! And the seasoning on their chips... don 't even start me! So flipping good. Dip the chips in the BBQ baste an you have yourself ultimate happiness! Would definitely recommend checking this place out!

Fried chicken burg ninja!!<br/ <br/ Oh dear ... surprising this place rocks out a good sourthern fried chicken burger, the batter and the sauce is on point. Located in a Club York 99 this place gets packed for lunch. <br/ <br/ Ample sitting in Zabou lounge and a bar so you can sneak a drink during lunch ... haha<br/ <br/ They also have a buffet too ... but thats for next time ...<br/ <br/ Until next time .... keep eating!!!

Really loved the ribs (paired perfectly with a nice smokey bbq sauce , the buffalo wings (with house made special marinade and the super crunchy sweet potato fries (though I would've liked these to be paired with the smokey bbq also! .<br/ <br/ <br/ The frappes were also quite enjoyable I believe I ordered the Lulo which wasn't too sweet, while my cousin quite enjoyed the mango frappe, which was actually quite thick due to the use of a lot of mangoes!
