Tennis pop-up for Rockpool

ROCKPOOL Bar & Grill will create a pop-up venue for 190 tennis fans at the Australian Open next month.

The initiative is the latest catering foray by the Rockpool Dining Group and its Culinary Director Neil Perry, and will be located on the city side of Margaret Court Arena from 14-27 Jan.

Its a-la-carte menu will involve sustainably sourced produce and some of the restaurant’s signature dishes, with entrees such as roasted macadamias with Aleppo pepper and grilled asparagus with spanner grab, and mains including Cape Grimm steak and yellowfin tuna.

Rockpool’s casual eatery Burger Project will also operate at the Australian Open, offering a burger bar at the Grand Slam Oval.
