If your dream is to dine with Sachin Tendulkar then be ready to shell out big bucks. Sydney’s most iconic restaurant is offering an exclusive dinner with the Little Master priced at 1,500 to 3,000 Australian dollars with just a few seats up for grabs.
The VIP dinner which will be held on Feb 26 will be attended by around 60 after the India-South Africa match on Sunday.
According to one of the organiser, the dinner will coincide with the cricket icon’s trip to Australia to watch the India-South Africa match.
The flyer of the event doing the rounds in Australia says, ‘You are invited to an exclusive VIP dinning experience with the Master himself - Sachin Tendulkar’.
There will be tables of eight people and a choice of mains and desserts will be served along with premium wines and spirits.
However, only a dozen people will be at Sachin’s table and will have the pleasure of mingling with him for half an hour over cocktails and drinks, the organiser said. That, he says, is priced at 3,000 Australian dollars.
During the dinner, an Emcee will interview Sachin and take questions from the audience.
The cricketer is also expected sign some items to be auctioned. He will give away signed copies of his recently released autobiography - Playing It My Way.
The organiser said that the money raised would go towards Sachin’s foundation.
There is an expectation that a similar dinner might take place in Melbourne in March when Sachin visits the city for the World Cup finals.
