CARLS an der Elbphilharmonie (Brasserie) – Hamburg, Germany

  I was a bit sceptical when we decided to go to CARLS AN DER ELBPHILHARMONIE because it’s literally right next to Hamburg’s current biggest tourist attraction – the Elbphilharmonie. It’s been years in the making and finally Hamburg has a brand new concert hall, which looks suspiciously […]

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 […]

Concrete Jungle Cafe – Chippendale, Sydney

Concrete Jungle Cafe – Chippendale, Sydney

  Throwback to a couple of months ago when DS celebrated our 2 year wedding anniversary with a staycation at the Old Clare Hotel in Chippendale! (On a side note, wow! Two years has gone by really quickly. If you missed it, here was a […]

BEA – Barangaroo, Sydney

BEA – Barangaroo, Sydney

  BEA at Barangaroo, has been one of my favourite new openings recently. Not just in Barangaroo, but in all of Sydney! This was actually my second visit there because my parents loved it so much, we went back a few weeks later with my cousin […]

Muse Kitchen – Pokolbin, Hunter Valley NSW

Muse Kitchen – Pokolbin, Hunter Valley NSW

  My cousin and her (new!) fiance came to visit us in Sydney from Hong Kong a few weeks ago. My cousin in particular has quite an interest in wine. She spent several months working in a beautiful winery in France during the harvest season […]

Back Row West – Sydney CBD

Back Row West – Sydney CBD

  I used to work in the city. Ever since changing my job I’ve really missed all the cool cafes and lunch options in the city. No, I’m not talking about the MLC foodcourt (which is pretty good, as far as food courts go). I’m talking […]
