Dinner at LL Wine & Dine “Take a date to LL Wine & Dine and you’re bound to get laid” according to Mr J. “Grab a drink in Kings Cross at a bar after dinner, hail a cab (there’s loads around) and you’ll be back at her place in no time” he continues. It’s called the [...]

There’s slim pickings in Sydney for single ladies these days but who needs men when you have gossip, gorgoeus views, champagne and steak! A girl needs her iron and we’re not talking about tissue thin meat from the $10 specials board at your local pub. Head to Kingsleys Steak and Crabhouse on Woolloomooloo Wharf and (as the name suggests) [...]

It sounds like two life long dreams: “One day I want to be a Formula One racing car driver” and “one day I want to own a vineyard in gorgeous Italy off the Adriatic Coast”. Most would be lucky to obtain just one, but for Jarno Trulli, Italian born F1 driver for Lotus and owner [...]

I’ve been to Ms G’s twice now and on both occasions I’ve had an awesome time. We have Merivale, Dan Hong and Jowett Yu from Lotus to thank for this great new addition to Potts Point. You’ll be impressed the minute you walk through the door of this 4 level New York style noodle house. [...]

Living in the heart of Darlinghurst is dangerous. It’s a tough life full of unexpected twists and turns. One minute you’re walking down Victoria Street with your old friend looking for a quiet place to chat and maybe grab a coffee.

L’etoile is well known as the little French bistro in Paddington run by Manu Feildel, celebrity chef and foodie pin-up-boy for many female diners in Sydney. Was he there on the Thursday night Grumpy Girrl and I dined? No. On holiday. Sad…no. The thought of Grumpy Girrl going all goggley for him wasn’t in my [...]

Sneaky lane-way restaurants, unassuming doors and secret pin codes to enter…no we’re not in Melbourne. Sydney is changing. The eastern suburbs is home to the likes of Sticky Bar, LL Wine & Dine, Grasshopper and now Berta, the much-anticipated little sister of Italian trattoria Vini in Surry Hills. Half the fun is finding this place, [...]

I don’t know why I haven’t done a post on Phamish before…I eat there at least once a week and it’s my favourite Vietnamese in Sydney. I’m not even going to go into great detail about it either just take my word for it. If you haven’t been there yet, go. Stop reading this blog, [...]

I love things that are hard to find…especially when it’s food and wine! The harder it is to find the more rewarding it feels when you finally consume it. Sticky Bar in Surry Hills falls into this category. Look away now if you don’t want to know where it is or why you should go [...]

Zushi is my sushi spot in Darlinghurst and is now opening a store on Crown St, Surry Hills. Hooray!!! The original Zushi is on Victoria St, Darlinghurst and is a great little spot if you’re looking for fresh, tasty, well priced Japanese in the eastern suburbs. It’s also BYO and they do Zushi Happy Hour [...]
