The bills SPRING/SUMMER 2025 MENU is here! Make the warm season a “rich experience” with fresh and healthy “Mediterranean Comfort Food.”

Hello. I am Sunny-chan from Public Relations!

Just as the long winter has passed, a season of sudden, gentle warmth has arrived.

bills, the all-day dining concept from Sydney, Australia, operated by SUNNY SIDE UP GROUP, began offering its “SPRING/SUMMER 2025 MENU” on April 22.✨

The theme of this new menu is Mediterranean Comfort Food.🌞

During the sun-drenched summer months, people living along the Mediterranean coast gather at beachfront restaurants and terraces to enjoy meals with wine or cocktails in hand, feeling the pleasant sea breeze.

Dining is not merely “nutritional replenishment,” but a “time to enrich one’s life,” adding color to precious moments spent with family and friends.

Inspired by this Mediterranean coastal culture, the new Spring/Summer menu features a lineup of refreshing and health-conscious dishes that maximize the natural flavors of the ingredients.

We recently attended a media tasting event ahead of the launch, so we would like to introduce the details along with a report on the atmosphere.✨
