[invite] Bianca: Tucked away along one of the Rocks many cobbled laneways is Pony Dining. This latest visit marks the third time I have dined under the ‘Pony’ umbrella. Firstly at the now closed Grovesnor Street location and twice at the Rocks. After a recent refurb, they’re back with a new look and a new menu. One of […]
{Invite} Bianca: Life is ludicrously fast paced these days but one thing I’ve always adored doing in Sydney, is exploring suburbs I haven’t otherwise visited. Which is exactly what Alejandro and I did two Fridays ago, we made a quick detour to pick up some deliciously cheap and cheery doughnuts from Voglia Di Pane in […]
GUEST POST: Manny: As a FFS spouse, I’m generally on the other side of these posts. Cooking is my passion, and as an owner of a full size spit, a mini spit and multiple BBQs, you could say I have a love for meat and fire. So you can imagine my excitement when I was […]

Bianca: A few months back Alex and I had a brain fart, we were at home alone, where we proceeded to spend a good deal of time perusing Instagram. We then happened to come across a little cake store in Maroochydore , Tome Café. What happened next was pure madness…We then proceeded to book a 4 day […]
[invite] Bianca: Here at FFS we’ve worshipped Fried chicken for many a moon, with the little fast food joint KFC being a top favourite of Vanessa’s. I typically shy away from ‘working’ for my food so I’ve never been mad for anything with bones. I’m really all about that #nugglife. But when Belles opened their […]
Vanessa: We at Team FFS are huge fans of Japanese cuisine and a midweek jaunt to Mortlake had us experiencing a very memorable meal at Katsumi. The understated exterior of the restaurant leaves you pleasantly surprised when you enter to find a tastefully, modern fit out with beautiful decor and carefully thought-out touches. Myself, Bianca, Mumma […]
Bianca: Continuing on our Queensland holiday adventure recap, we were keen to check out the Asian dining scene in our Northern neighbours state. So we perused the trusty 2016 Gourmet Traveller guide and quickly settled on TEN Japanese. Suffice to say that was the best decision we made during our little weekend away. After flitting around […]
Bianca: Having undergone a recent swish renovation the UTS Haberfield Rower Club was our chosen… Alex: The popular John Smith Cafe perched on the corner of John and Botany Road… Vanessa: As I’m someone who loves to eat out for breakfast, I’m always excited when I hear… Bianca: If there was ever to be a statue built-in […]
Bianca: Murmurings of a good burger is a sure fire way to get my attention and having been opened for just 7 weeks now ‘Rupert & Ruby’ have certainly done that. Occupying the ICON PARK crowd funded venue, formerly inhabited by ‘Stanley Street Merchants’, touting itself with the tagline ‘Modern Australian meets traditional American’. *And […]
[invite] Bianca: Balmain isn’t exactly short of cafes. With neighbouring cafes and restaurants vying for your business in such a concentrated area, it’s hard to weed out the gems. Opening just over a month ago, Gods Creation has quietly been honing their craft. With an emphasis on an Italian fusion menu, we were curious how they stacked […]
[invite] Bianca: I’ve long been a fan of Grandma’s Bakery since they opened their first Sydney store… Bianca: In the space of two years, Rhodes has gone from a virtual cafe no-mans land,… Vanessa: Nestled in the quiet inner west suburb of Abbotsford, Bistecca certainly knows how to… [invite] Bianca: Middle Eastern food is always so generous in […]
[invite] Bianca: A whole cafe dedicated to the delightful peanut spread? Shiver me timbers!! When I got wind of this recent opening late last year the excitement was very real! Peanut Butter Bar opened at the end of 2017 with a focus on healthy and not so healthy treats. I’m going to be honest, I was […]
Bianca: It had been several years between visits to Surry Hills cafe, Blaq Piq. We were drawn to the cafe in late 2015 with some foodie friends double tagging Cafe Cre Asion for some matcha treats, followed by brunch at Blaq Piq. I remember having the Pandan pancakes and enjoying them but with so many food […]
