One good thing about having South African digital marketer Paul Gray in Sydney with us is that it allows me and Baby Noah to play tourist in our own city. Now that we’re at the tail end of winter (we conveniently missed 5 cold, wet La Niña weeks thanks to filming and travelling in Malaysia) we’ve spent our weekends exploring Sydney’s unmatched coastline.
This Sunday just past, we had the added bonus of sampling the lobster rolls at Lobster & Co‘s pop-up at The Rocks. Paul played his usual role of designated videographer and he was able to compile this highlights reel of our lobster/champagne/truffle parmesan fries. Take a look –
The lobster rolls are made with brioche buns, Australian lobster tail, and fennel slaw, and they are freshly and deliciously made onsite daily.

Baby Noah ate both our serves of truffle parmesan fries, but at least Paul and I got to keep the lobster rolls all to ourselves, since Noah thankfully hasn’t yet acquired a taste for lobster.

My verdict? At $50 a pop for the lobster roll and truffle parmesan fries, this premium experience buys you not just fresh and delicious light fare with perfectly-matched flavours, but the opportunity to dine on Sydney Harbour with views of the Sydney Opera House – it’s truly an idyllic way to spend an afternoon in Sydney.
Lobster & Co’s pop-up at First Fleet Park, The Rocks, runs until 25 September 2022. Check their website – https://lobsterandco.com.au/ – for details on this and other locations where you can find them.
