Yakitori Jin – Haberfield, Sydney

Yakitori Jin – Haberfield, Sydney

  So…I love yakitori. There’s no doubting that. It all started with Yardbird in Hong Kong, followed by Yardbird in Sydney (!) and other amazing yakitori places like Yakitori Yurippi in Crows Nest. There’s something about the small skewers that appeals to me, as well as […]

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 […]

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 […]

Gojima – Pyrmont, Sydney

Gojima – Pyrmont, Sydney

Gojima is so totally instagrammable. There’s no other way to describe the burgers, except that they are also ridiculously tasty. That’s right – not just the looks, but the real deal as well! CK and I headed over a while ago and have been dying […]

Yardbird @ Harpoon Harry – Surry Hills, Sydney

Yardbird @ Harpoon Harry – Surry Hills, Sydney

Nearly three years ago, JL and I first stepped into the original Yardbird in Sheung Wan, Hong Kong. It was an incredible experience, dining at the bar and checking out all the action happening around us. So when I heard Yardbird were popping up in Sydney, I […]

Yakitori Yurippi (Winter Menu) – Crows Nest, Sydney

Yakitori Yurippi (Winter Menu) – Crows Nest, Sydney

It’s been a while (I sadly realised) since I’d been to Yakitori Yurippi last. But lucky for me, Chef Tin invited us back to check out his winter menu a few weeks ago and it was truly epic. In fact, I was getting mega cravings for yakitori […]

Maruko Gyoza – Cooking gyoza at home + Giveaway!

It was a cold, wintry AND rainy night, and DS and I had run out of food at home. What to do? The solution, we have learned, is always to have a pack of Maruko Gyoza frozen in your freezer, ready to go for these […]

Yakitori Yurippi – Crows Nest, Sydney

I know it’s a big call, but the yakitori (and everything else) at Yakitori Yurippi is literally some of the best I’ve ever had.
