Gyozas, Soju & Matcha Dreams! Your Guide To Steam Mill Lane
Who needs a map? Steam Mill Lane’s your guide to Asia’s best flavours!
Darling Square is surprisingly lesser known for a precinct located in such a prime location within Sydney’s CBD. However, don’t expect it to stay that way for long, with the newly developed area boasting some of Sydney’s most exciting new bars and restaurants. Upon arriving at the square, you are met with beautiful architecture and a hub of intimate laneways, filled with various restaurants offering mixed cuisines. One lane in particular, Steam Mill Lane, transports you to South East Asia, with a truly authentic dining and drinking experience.
Start (or end) your night at Nakano Darling, a relaxed izakaya styled after Tokyo's streetside bars, with tatami mats, beer crates and neon signage. Pair a highball with savoury gyoza, the city's best karaage or fried pork udon, open daily until as late as 2am.

Just steps away, Kwang Jang Pocha transports you to South Korea, serving snack-style food inspired by Seoul's Gwangjang Markets. Sip plum soju while exploring unique dishes like sweet cheesy corn, 'snow cheese' coated fries or kimchi pancakes, open daily until midnight or later.
