Story summary

The Iron Yampi, a reimagined cocktail bar and bistro in Port Kembla, has brought new energy to the town by transforming traditional pub favorites into modern dishes. The annual billy cart race that once dominated the main street is now remembered through playful recreations of classic meals. Dishes include soft-boiled eggs simmered in red wine served with beef strips and a spicy prawn toast wrapped in deep-fried bread, designed for dipping. A standout dessert is the lamington tiramisu, which replaces traditional Italian ingredients with layers of coconut and chocolate-coated sponge. The bar's extensive cocktail menu and vibrant wine list are also highlights worth visiting for, despite the absence of billy carts now.

Narrative

The race is no more, but its spirit lives on in the playfully reimagined pub classics that roll through the flashy dining room decorated with pics of those past races Soft-boiled eggs are simmered in red wine then rested on pink strips of beef in a cool steak and eggs glow-up, the “kinda” prawn toast sees the crustaceans wrapped in a cylinder of deep-fried bread, primed to be dunked into a bowl of full-throttle fermented chilli sauce, and the lamington tiramisu replaces savoiardi with layers of coconut and chocolate-coated sponge. Yampi’s cocktails and zippy wine list alone are worth dropping by for, so consider leaving the billy cart at home.
