Dinner

De Japanner – Amsterdam, The Netherlands

De Japanner – Amsterdam, The Netherlands

  After spending around 2 weeks in Germany (where, in Hamburg specifically, the Asian food isn’t THAT great) we were really craving some Japanese when we arrived. We had no expectations of Japanese food in Amsterdam at all, just that DE JAPANNER had been recommended in the […]

Hoog – Keitum, Sylt, Germany

Hoog – Keitum, Sylt, Germany

  While in Sylt, we had the pleasure of some English friends visiting us for a couple of days. Apart from many bike rides around the island and time spent at the beach, we absolutely had to take them for dinner. I’ve written about HOOG before – […]

Gogärtchen – Kampen, Sylt, Germany

Gogärtchen – Kampen, Sylt, Germany

  A trip to GOGÄRTCHEN is a must for my family every time we’re in Sylt. It’s quite a fine dining restaurant, from the ingredients and the way the food is prepared. However, they have recently adopted a more relaxed approach with the waiters wearing jeans and […]

Holy Duck! – Chippendale, Sydney

Holy Duck! – Chippendale, Sydney

  My friend Hamilton and I have been eating out together since our university days. He moved away recently and whenever he comes back for a visit, we’ve always found ourselves eating out at Chinese restaurants. MR WONG is always a a good option, but since I […]

Gallo Nero – Hamburg, Germany

Gallo Nero – Hamburg, Germany

  I was looking through my Germany archives on the blog [helpful hint if you didn’t already know: my blogposts are categories with the links up the top, according to some of the places I visit the most!] and I simply CANNOT believe I haven’t […]

Dead Ringer – Surry Hills, Sydney

Dead Ringer – Surry Hills, Sydney

  One of our local favourites its definitely DEAD RINGER. It’s just up the road from us on Bourke Street in Surry Hills, really close to Taylor Square! One of the reasons it’s on our favourites list is because the menu changes all the time. This means […]

Fred’s – Paddington, Sydney

Fred’s – Paddington, Sydney

  I’ve been to FRED’S in Paddington a couple of times now. It’s always been good, but not that great. I suppose I had pretty high expectations. Merivale restaurants, in my experience, are always excellent – in terms of the fit-out, atmosphere as well as the food. I […]

Gaku Robata Grill – Darlinghurst, Sydney

Gaku Robata Grill – Darlinghurst, Sydney

  I often say how lucky we are to live in such a diverse food area like Darlinghurst. We have a myriad of options to choose from, most of which was only a few minutes from our doorstep! GAKU ROBATA GRILL is one of the most recent […]

Vic’s Meat Smokehouse & Grill – Pyrmont, Sydney

Vic’s Meat Smokehouse & Grill – Pyrmont, Sydney

  You go to VIC’S MEAT MARKET in the Fish Market if you want a big, meaty feed. That seems kind of obvious, but since opening for dinners on Thursday to Saturday nights, their SMOKEHOUSE & GRILL has added some ridiculously tasty things on the menu! We were invited […]

Bistro Mekong – Castlecrag, Sydney

Bistro Mekong – Castlecrag, Sydney

  BISTRO MEKONGin Castlecrag is all about south-east Asian food. It’s the sister restaurant to Kensington Street’s MEKONG and I love that you can get all types of south-east Asian food here! I feel like I’ve been to a lot of Thai restaurants, or Indian restaurants, where […]
