Vanessa: You may have noticed our current penchant for pancakes and with the highly photogenic hotcake at Concrete Jungle Cafe doing the rounds on the Instagram circuit, we just had to experience it. Aptly named, Concrete Jungle Cafe is located within Central Park, Chippendale. If you have been, you know this area is not exactly parking […]
Bianca: This one was on the horizon for some time, my co-worker Joyce (Little Rocket) and I have a freakish obsession with food and had heard about this Italian food emporium. Very similar to the famous ‘Eataly’ in NYC co-owned by Mario Batali and Lidia Bastianich. Situated on a fairly sizeable piece of land fronting […]
Alex: Deciding on where to eat for lunch when you’re not entirely hungry can be a bit of a tricky one, knowing I felt like something sweet, myself and Michael went to Bills to of course ….. get the ricotta hotcakes, what else? Simple menu and simple restaurant layout, it’s safe to say I’m very […]

Alex: The CBD can be a daunting place for many reasons but for me the most traumatic experience is generally based around what I’m going to eat on my lunch break! (Sad but unfortunately true) Cafe Chicane is a surprisingly large venue that is nestled in the city’s financial district (Bond Street) which is opened […]
[invite] Alex: “Peace in the Middle East” – A fitting neon sign graces the entrance of the bustling Shukah restaurant on the Windsor end of Chapel Street. Even on a Sunday night at 9:45pm people were still pouring in, a good sign! Shukah is an Armenian restaurant that serves modern interpretations of classic dishes. It’s […]

This March, 24th-30th, I am taking part in Meat Free Week, meaning (to state the obvious) for 7 days I will not be eating any meat, chicken, general poultry and fish products. This will be the greatest amount of time I have forgone any meat products and as a cheeseburger loving, meatball eating carnivore I […]
Vanessa: We recently returned from a five-day “Team FFS takes Melbourne” sojourn, that left our stomachs stretched, our wallets lighter and our lives enriched! Having spent the majority of our time eating our way through some of Melbourne’s best cafe’s and restaurants, I can confidently say that their dining scene gives Sydney’s a run for […]
Vanessa: There’s a new kid in town, that brings the flavours of contemporary Middle Eastern cuisines to the heart of the Rocks. The newly opened Tayim, is set in a charming sandstone cavern that has been minimally yet tastefully decorated. Guests can enjoy a menu created to inspire the senses with its mix of traditional and […]
Vanessa: Casula is not somewhere I venture to often so an invite to visit Bellbird Dining at the Casula Powerhouse was a novel way for Bianca and I to spend a Sunday afternoon. The road to Bellbird is well sign-posted although off any main road as such. The cafe/restaurant is located a the power house […]

Vanessa: If there is ever an opportunity to spoil yourself with treatments, you can guarantee that I will be at the front of the queue. Those that know me know that I have a weakness for two things, food and treatments, so when those two loves amalgamate it is a perfect match for me. Christopher […]
