If your ideal Sunday involves charcoal smoke drifting through a Chippendale laneway and a cold beer in hand, this one’s for you—Kyiv Social is hosting two back-to-back chef takeovers this March, handing the grill to a pair of inner west heavyweights for one-day-only menus.
On 8 March, Tim Cassimatis of Olympic Meats steps up to the charcoal for a one-day-only menu built for cold beers and smoky plates. Then on 15 March, Toby Wilson (Rico’s Taco Truck and Ghostboy Cantina) takes the reins — bringing his own flavour, soundtrack and off-menu specials you won’t catch anywhere else.
Each chef curates the vibe, runs the grill and serves dishes designed to be eaten standing, leaning or perched with a Young Henrys in hand.
