Foreign Return

 
 

Foreign Return arrives on Australian shores as a wise and monocled Indian Rock Pigeon. Before 1851 and the arrival of the telegraph, this noble bird carried messages of love and hope across the land. In joyful continuation of this tradition, Foreign Return now brings to Surry Hills a treasure of age-old Indian recipes, modern Indian fare, and an edgy, Indian-inspired cocktail list.
