New Star Kebab, Auburn

  We went out on a limb one lazy Sunday afternoon and decided we’d drive to Auburn for lunch. We didn’t quite know where we were going to eat, but we did know that we felt like a Middle Eastern feast. Driving through the main shopping strip, our attention was caught by the crowds outside…

Burger Heaven at Happy Ending, Concord

Happy Ending may just be the answer to all of your burger needs. The takeaway joint takes over the space of what used to be a family fish and chip shop on the main strip of Concord’s Majors Bay Road; a hole in the wall space that fits a row of indoor counter seats and…

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….

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…

Rell’s Kitchen, Randwick

With the Superfood craze that is becoming ever popular in today’s dining scene, I have to admit that I had never tried Acai before visiting this cute little Randwick cafe. Rell’s Kitchen is a café that manages to integrate the wholefoods trend with an honest, down-to-earth atmosphere. At the same time, it’s a place that makes…

Lunching at Caffe Dante, Sydney CBD

Hands up if you have been out and about shopping, and suddenly realise you’re starving and it’s way past lunchtime? You find yourself getting hangry while wandering around to find somewhere to stop, then resort to an underwhelming eatery that was most convenient because, really, you just needed to satisfy your stomach. It’s a situation…

Delisse Market Cafe, Sydney CBD

French marketplaces are scenes of wonder and awe for many food lovers. There’s an abundance of fresh produce and luscious baked goods everywhere you look, and a lively atmosphere of hustle and bustle unlike no other. In my opinion, it’s market food that I most look forward to when visiting any market. Delisse is a…

Tim Ho Wan, Burwood

When Michelin-starred Tim Ho Wan opened it’s very first Sydney restaurant in Chatswood early last year, dim sum fans came from far and wide to get a taste of those revered dumplings and thatfamous bbq pork bun. Since then, a smaller takeaway store has opened in Westfield Sydney’s level 5 food court and most recently,…

Dera-Uma, Sydney CBD

The term ‘comfort food’ means different things to different people. Some might immediately think of a steaming stew or an oozy, melted cheese toastie. For me, comfort food almost always involves rice. Growing up in Sydney and coming from an Asian background, my childhood was full of a sort of hybrid cuisine. Vegetable stir-fries would…
