I heard about JIDORI in the Monocle travel guide book I think, something about a well-priced yakitori restaurant. And well-priced it was! They serve an omakase menu (kind of like a degustation or tasting menu) for just £30 per person, for the whole table only. […]

  Well I’ve gotta say: we really didn’t expect to find decent ramen in Amsterdam. After trying out DE JAPANNER and realising that Amsterdam might actually have decent Japanese food, we thought we’d give FOU FOW RAMEN a go, since we had walked past it a few times already. […]

  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 […]

  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 […]

  Having dinner at RONIN in Hong Kong is truly an experience. Firstly, you’ve got to actually find the restaurant. It’s in one of the tiny streets in Sheung Wan, pretty much at the end of the street, down some stairs and then there’s a grey door […]

  You might have noticed a new restaurant / cafe pop up on the corner of Oxford Street in Paddington. It’s right near Centennial Park! The house its in has gone through many different iterations, but it looks like SVEN-SAN is here to stay. We went […]

  Hands up if you love yakitori!!! If you do (and who doesn’t really – it’s grilled meat on sticks…) then IZAYAKA YEBISU is the place for you. It’s a traditional izakaya-style Japanese restaurant, which means it has many small dishes on the menu that are […]

  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 […]

  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 […]

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 […]
