A bucket list of bakeries we visited and sweet treats we devoured in New York.

Nobu, Melbourne
It’s the name that’s almost instantly recognisable as an icon of Japanese cuisine. The Melbourne location of the famed restaurant empire is one of only two places in Australia where you can sample Nobu Matsuhisa’s internationally renowned ‘new style’ Japanese cooking.
Salmon and Bear, Newtown
The name Salmon and Bear conjures mixed signals about the food that the restaurant serves. Does the menu revolve around fish (the ‘Salmon’ component), or does it have more of a hunter-gather wilderness theme (the ‘Bear’)? Or does it go surf and turf and offer both? The answer is in the ‘Salmon’ part of the…
Three Williams, Redfern
I’d have sandwiches every day for lunch without fail when I was a kid. As a result, because I’d eaten so many, sandwiches have since lost their sense of appeal and I’ve tended to shy away from them as a lunchtime option. But then along came the narnie. The narnie is Three Williams’ specialty. It’s…
Butcher and The Farmer, Glebe
The first time we visited Harold Park’s gentrified Tramsheds complex was during the first month of opening, and the space was teeming with masses of crowds who were eager to get a piece of the Inner West’s newly-restored food destination. It was, in all honesty, quite a stressful experience because it was just so busy….
Balcon By Tapavino
Balcon By Tapavino is the kind of place where you’d happily spend a lazy Friday afternoon. Order some share plates, a glass of wine and graze your way into the weekend. The outdoor terrace area at the back of the restaurant conduces this relaxing, laid-back feeling, while the warmly-lit dining areas inside are cosy. Run…
China Doll, Woolloomoolloo
Being of Chinese heritage, we don’t go out to eat at Chinese restaurants as often as one might think. I’m a big fan of the cheap, no-frills Chinese restaurant for a good noodle feed or family yum cha, however we seldom dine at restaurants on the higher end of the price spectrum. But the iconic…
Tea Time at The Tea Cosy
Fancy a cup of tea and warm scones with jam and cream? The Tea Cosy is just the place to satisfy your afternoon tea cravings. Nestled in an old terrace house in The Rocks, The Tea Cosy is a cafe that retains an old-fashioned charm. The interior has hardly been touched in converting the house…
Dumplings ahoy at Yang’s Dumpling, Burwood
This dumpling eatery has cemented a spot in our hearts as one of our favourite dumpling places of all time. If you haven’t heard of Yang’s Dumpling before, then be you’ll be itching to try their dumplings by the end of this post. The pan fried pork buns at Yang’s are things of beauty. They’re…
Harry’s, Bondi Beach
It can be hard to find a cafe that revamps the way you view breakfast. Harry’s Bondi manages to do just that, while maintaining that surf-side coastal cool. Harry’s sits on a hill overlooking the rolling waves of BondiBeach, with an exterior painted a very Bondi-esque, pale blue. On any usual weekend, this place is one…
