Dinner

Sasaki – Sydney

Sasaki – Sydney

  For DS’s birthday this year we thought we’d sort of re-live our honeymoon in Japan and head to Sasaki. In my opinion, it’s pretty much as close as you’ll get to Japan in Sydney!     The whole place is incredible. Starting from the fact […]

Pici – Wan Chai, Hong Kong

Pici – Wan Chai, Hong Kong

  Looking for a neighbourhood Italian restaurant in Wan Chai, Hong Kong? You’ve definitely got it in Pici!     On our last trip to Hong Kong over Easter we spent a lot of time exploring Wan Chai. We totally loved Elephant Grounds there and really enjoyed […]

Yakiniku Great – Central, Hong Kong

Yakiniku Great – Central, Hong Kong

Was Yakiniku Great our highlight meal of this Hong Kong trip? Probably. It was definitely pretty GREAT though! It also wins the award for cheesiest restaurant name. For those who don’t know, yakiniku is the Japanese cooking style of grilling meat. So they’re pretty much saying they […]

Spiga – Central, Hong Kong

Spiga – Central, Hong Kong

My cousin J (who is a total foodie as well!) recommended Spiga to mum and I for a quiet but nice dinner. It’s a super cool space in one of the big sky scraper office blocks in Central. I’m still getting used to the fact that […]

Lotus – Barangaroo, Sydney

  I’ve always been a huge fan of Lotus Restaurant. The first time I went to the one in the Galeries (and been there a dozen times or so since!), followed by a trip to the original Lotus down on Hickson Road. I know it’s terrible to […]

CLOSED – ABC Restaurant and Bar – Potts Point

CLOSED – ABC Restaurant and Bar – Potts Point

  We’re always really excited to hear about a new cafe or restaurant opening in Potts Point. We like to think it’s ‘our area’ when it’s really not… Close enough though! We love Italian food (who doesn’t!), so when we heard that ABC Restaurant and Bar […]

Edition Coffee Roasters @ Night – Darlinghurst, Sydney

One afternoon on my walk home from work, I stopped by Edition Coffee Roasters to have a chat with Dan. He told me the super exciting news that Edition would be opening for dinner! What was even more exciting was that he asked us to come for their […]

Som Saa – Spitalfields, London, UK

Som Saa – Spitalfields, London, UK

How great is it having friends all over the world? SW and his girlfriend A are always super fun to hang out with when we’re in London. This time we decided to check out Spitalfields, which we hadn’t been to much before, and A recommended […]

Bandol – Chelsea, London

Bandol – Chelsea, London

SVT and I used to be part of a kind of informal dinner club with a couple of school friends. When we realised she was moving to London, it made us sad – but also excited about the possibility of reuniting dinner club in London! […]

My my it’s been a busy start to the year – so much so that I’m only getting round to posting about our trip to Europe in December 2016! talk&spoon was also down for a few days, so apologies to those who tried to access […]
