Norwest Restaurants Episode – Dining Downunder Cooking Show
Posted on September 1st, 2009 by admin
In this episode of Dining Downunder, Mark McCluskey takes us to the Norwest restaurant where he spends most of his time. Mark’s the executive chef at Alberts Lakeside Restaurant and he talks about his menu, vision and style at this corporate by day, casual by night restaurant in the Hills District of Sydney.
The restaurant is located at the Norwest Business Park, 30 minutes drive north west from the Sydney CBD. Norwest has in the past few years attracted over 400 businesses to relocate to this area. Right in the middle of this complex is a man made lake and overlooking this lake is a number of Norwest Restaurants.
Given Mark’s classical English culinary training, the menu features well structured dishes combing European styles with native Australian ingredients. During this episode, Mark demonstrates two dishes, a pan seared emu fillet with summer greens and macadamia nuts and a Rainforest Lime Tart which both feature on the current menu.

In this episode of Dining Downunder, our chefs visit Hunters Hill on the Parramatta River, to dine at the well known Banjo Patterson Cottage Restaurant. Classified by the National Trust, “Rockend” is where A.B.’Banjo’ Paterson, the Australian poet and bard lived as a young man with his grandmother. This convict-hewn, sandstone block cottage, with its courtyard well, dates back to the 1830’s when it started out as an oil refinery and store for river freight.
