It's curious, because it's an age old thing. Years ago I worked at a well known fine dining UK restaurant that cooked hispi/sweetheart cabbage over coals until it was super charred, then a few mins in a hot oven and finally served with a tom/shallot dressing on the top. It was extremely popular and had such an incredible flavour.

I really want to visit this restaurant. Will be top of my list for sure next time I'm in Australia. I remember the first time I came across Lennox the first time I ate at Etxebarri years ago. It seems he really is honoring his time there with his restaurant.

“I don’t always eat 🥩 But when I do. I choose the best 🔥” should be the motto of this place Cheers from San Diego California 🇺🇸

Food looks amazing as someone who worked in a Kitchen in Australia the amount of heart & dedication this Chef has is awesome. Good Aussie wood and good quality food. Definitely need to go here!

Have seen this chef in another show, amazing chef with the heart on the "right" place. Thx guys for this amazing portrait :)

Kudos to you guys. Here in Cape Town most of us have dedicated rooms almost like kitchens dedicated to cooking on open fire. Yes, we make fires indoors. It's so common it's weird if you do not have an indoor spot dedicated for this. It's almost compulsory to have one of these rooms. Specifically when entertaining guest etc. Gotta hand it to you guys for adopting the open flame approach. There simply is nothing better. Well done!

I'll always remember Lennox from working at Asador Extebarri. Would love to go to both restaurants one day.

Amazing looking steak. Bucket list. For people outside of Australia the Coral Trout is to die for. Definitely the best fish I have tasted. Will be targeting sometime in January to book. Cant wait.

So wonderful to watch

Was amazing on chefs table and I’m stoked to see him on eater for sure 😁🤙

This is the best cooking show on U Tube by far

Grilled romaine lettuce is great!used to do it at a french bistro I worked at.That Coral fish looks beautiful

Seems like a truely amazing restaurant, would love to dine there some day

I'll be visiting Sydney soon and I can't wait to experience the culinary delights at Firedoor.

Ironbark is literally the most common food grade firewood on the east coast of Australia. It's very dense, burns hot, long and very clean when cured.

Greatly appreciated and special. It rare to find today places and people, who know the ways of fires and amber's. In cities today, you have to get a license. I think.
