Tomislav
Nestled in Kirketon road in Kings Cross, Tomislav is a new mini bistro opened by Tomislav Martinovic. Having recently worked with Heston Blumenthal at the Fat Duck, and followed by being head chef at Koi in Woolwich (both my absolute favorites), Tomislav provides an understated extravagance to his cooking...
Michel Roux (Snr)
Michel Roux’s approach to cuisine is all about removing the complexity from dishes and making the experience clean and crisp. He arrived in England in 1971 with his older brother Albert, to open the original Le Gavroche Restaurant in Lower Sloane Street, London and it was an instant hit during...
Love Lunches by Annalise
I’ve always been sensitive to wheat & yeast – but it’s never stopped me from devouring foods I enjoy. As far as I’m concerned, if it tastes amazing, I can deal with the consequences later.
When my friend Adam Lane (ex Ivy Teppanyaki / Nobu London) told me about the new venture...
Bacco Wine Bar
Tucked away under a set of escalators, a dark cosy Italian wine bar would be the last thing you expect in the lobby of Chifley Plaza. It is a very popular haunt for executives doting Italian suits during weekday lunches, but by night, it is an inviting space for a glass of wine or aperitivo with their...
Shark’s Fin on Chawanmushi
My ultra short trip to Kuala Lumpur was exactly that. Between all the events that happen amongst wedding celebrations, I hardly had any time to explore the city. I did try to catch a taxi to Sek Yuen, only to find that it was closed mid afternoon on a Friday. He stopped by a take-away stand so we...
Bennelong Pre-Theatre Dining
Went to the Juliette Binoche and Akram Khan dance performance at the Opera House last week, and what better pre-theatre dining options to have than Guillaume at Bennelong! Nested under one of the ‘wedges’ of the Opera House with sweeping harbour views, it’s just beautiful during...
Seagrass Brasserie, Jervis Bay
Located in Huskisson, Seagrass is a a very popular destination for visitors around the South Coast as well as locals. Don’t forget to book as it gets very busy during the holiday seasons. It has a beautiful outdoor deck dining area and also intimately lit indoor areas with bright aqua accents...
Central Baking Depot

They bake twice a day, so if you buy bread home after work, it would be fresh out of the oven. Opens til 6pm!
Hearty beef pie (with soft chunks of braised meat) in a flakey pie pastry ($4);...
Hong Kong… Kowloon Hong Kong…
…I like Hong Kong…
I have a spare moment at work (mind you, it’s already 8pm Thursday evening before the Easter long weekend) to blog about some of the amazing Chinese food that I dearly miss so much in Sydney. It doesn’t even compare – not even close!
Wonton noodles at...
