[invite] Bianca: My pancake quest has me travelling far and wide these days, which is how Team FFS found ourselves at Degani Zetland. Prior to our visit, I hadn’t really explored the East Village Shopping Centre, I immediately zeroed in on Bowan Island Bakery and made a mental note to return post-brunch for ‘all the […]
Vanessa & Bianca: Last weekend we, along with our husbands and baby V, made our way to Orange, in regional NSW, where we stayed for two nights as a preview to Orange F.O.O.D week. Located approximately four hours from Sydney, Orange truly is a picturesque region with its green rolling hills, fruitful orchards and robust vineyards. […]
[invite] Bianca: Alongside my obsession with burgers and pancakes, sushi makes a pretty regular appearance in my diet. This is a recent development having avoided fish for most of my young life, where this new interest came from I do not know… All I know, I don’t think it’s going anywhere soon. I first noticed […]
Vanessa: “Mangiasti?” , a phrase I have heard countless times upon entering my grandparents home, meaning “ Have you eaten?” A phrase that rings so close to home for me that when I heard of a restaurant opening by this name, I knew I would be making a bee line. Located in Roseville, the newly […]
Vanessa: Situated on the ever-busy Rocky Point Road in Ramsgate is Linea Café. This small, intimate, family run business knows how to draw in the clientele with its broad range of unique and photogenic menu offerings. Bianca and I arrived for brunch on a Friday and chose to sit outside to enjoy the sunny, crisp […]
Alex: I’m always a little dubious when it comes to phone apps taking over real life situations. Call me old-fashioned (or just not very tech savvy) but I’d typically prefer to do more of my personal stuff, like paying bills without the aid of apps. Groupee is an app totally designed to make group payments effortless. […]
[invite] Bianca: My visit to Urban Tadka was long overdue. My love for Indian food was re-ignited this past year and after my visit it’s easy to see just how that 2019 Chef Hat was awarded. Nestled on the former National Geographic site, the restaurant is expansive. The large dining space can accommodate over 200 patrons […]
Vanessa: It’s not often we spend our lunch break during the working week dining at a 5 star hotel, however, on this occasion we dined at the Garden Court Restaurant at Sydney’s Sofitel Wentworth. Upon taking the lift up the restaurant, the buzz of the city disappears as you enter the spacious and bright dining […]
[invite] Bianca: My continuing mission to eat ‘all the pancakes’ has me all over Sydney. I’ve always been a sweet fiend but this has recently kicked into overdrive. Pancakes for breakfast, lunch or dinner… you name it. If a café has pancakes on the menu I’m automatically swayed. Social Brew straddles two bustling corridors of […]
Bianca: Whilst it was my hood growing up, the Hills isn’t exactly known for their burger offerings, in fact prior to the Tuckshop and The Baron, you’d be hard pressed to rattle off any other names. I lived the first 11 years of my life on Caroline Chisholm drive, one of the main streets intercepting Winston […]
Alex: And so begins the lengthy recap of my recent 2 month European adventure. A holiday filled with vivid landscapes, some surprising adrenaline rushes, a senseless amount of alcohol, family, friends new and old and of course food. This European adventure has ultimately left me with lifelong memories that I already find myself looking back on. It’s crazy […]
Alex: After a week in Mykonos where absolutely no photos were taken, except for one walking out of my hotel room in Kalo Livadi, an oasis away from the busy streets of Mikonos town, I ventured back to Barcelona, Spain. My second time in Catalonia and third visit to Spain. I had suffered from a […]
*Edit – Josh Arthurs has left Danno’s. His burger creations can be sampled at pop… Alex: When one (I) thinks of hight teas, it’s generally a bunch of ladies sippin’… Bianca: Okay, I’ll admit, prior to dining at ‘France Soir’ I had never heard of… Vanessa: As many of you may know, we at team […]
Bianca: We have vast interests and hobbies here at FFS. Ness and I particularly love cooking and baking and while that has taken the back seat of late due to a little bubbalah and work and social commitments. We always look forward to getting into the kitchen and tackling something new or something tried and tested. Bread has […]
