It’s been a busy year for the hospitality industry with hundreds of restaurant openings across Sydney and people catching up on missed special occasions due to COVID. To say thank you for your support, we’ve partnered with some of our favourite restaurants, wine shops and entertainment venues to bring you one giveaway every day for 12 days (starting Monday 12th December 2022). Scroll through the offers, get excited and enter below!

The Secret Foodies team are known for hosting dinners across Sydney where the venue remains a secret and guests are only given a few details of the cuisine & venue styling upon booking. Guests purchase their tickets online and receive a text the day before of the location where they’ll rock up, discover a new dining spot and meet new people. You and a friend will have all your whims catered to at an event of your choice in 2023. The package typically includes a 3-course set menu and beverages on arrival.
