Corner 75

Corner 75, a place of precious memories for Sydney’s Hungarian-Australians, has sat behind a frill of lace curtains for more than 40 years. In 2025, the paprika-red walls welcomed new owners: Alexander Kelly and Jean-Paul El Tom from Marrickville’s Baba’s Place, and Sixpenny’s Daniel Puskas, who realised a chance to explore his own Hungarian heritage. Together they brought new energy – and a light-as-a-cloud schnitzel – to this beloved neighbourhood gathering place. Service, expertly led by Attica alum Alice Tremayne, is a mix of personalised warmth and gentle fine-dining flourishes, while head chef Carley Scheidegger sends out cherished classics: fried puffs of lángos bread with caraway seeds and house-made sour cream, a tangy-creamy oyster mushroom hortobágyi palacsinta (Hungarian pancake) and the sugared swirl of an Esterházy torte. A new generation now clinks glasses of furmint and unicum alongside decades of memorabilia, revitalising this proud community cornerstone with fresh spirit. The legacy lives on.
