Vanessa: I often find myself thinking how spoilt for choice we are in Sydney, with the calibre of cafes and restaurants consistently reaching new heights. Our recent visit to the very newly opened Bopp & Tone in Sydney CBD, cemented this thought even further. Centrally located opposite Wynard Park, Bopp & Tone boasts a charming interior […]

Alex: The joys of having such a diverse group of friends is that I have been introduced to an array of different food cultures but for this post, I will be thanking one person in particular my very good friend Claudia (better known as “Khalbeh”), who is of Lebanese descent. In the many years that I […]
Vanessa: As many of our readers know, our Italian heritage and penchant for home cooked Italian meals by our grandparents mean that our benchmark may be slightly skewed when it comes to Italian food. None the less, our avid readers will also know that we are lovers of carbs and not ones to shy away […]
Bianca: And I’m back to regale you with more Texas tales. This time around we’re in Austin TX. Where slowed cooked ‘Barbeque’ is king. We jam-packed what we could in three days but hardly did any sight-seeing. I probably would have liked a longer stay to check out more of the natural sights but I’m […]
Vanessa: Every now and then I come across restaurants that conjure up feelings of nostalgia, of roads once travelled. This was true of our recent visit to Bistrot Gavroche that transported me back to time spent in Paris and the south of France. Located in the Kensington Street precinct of Chippendale, this classic French Bistro […]
Vanessa: Sydney’s popular waterfront dining district, King St Wharf, has welcomed a new kid on the block with the opening of the newly launched Casa Ristorante Italiano. Myself and fellow FFS bloggers, Bianca and Alex, were invited* to dine at Casa and sample the new menu which is packed full of traditional Italian dishes. This […]
Bianca: Buns, Baps, butties, cobs, rolls…whatever you call them. I’m across them. If there was ever a pinup for the humble bread roll surely it would be me! I eat bread and butter like there’s an incoming shortage and I’m pretty sure I’m slowly buying up the world’s stockpile of burger paraphernalia. It’s a curse […]
Vanessa: Waterfront dining on a Friday afternoon is nothing to be sniffed at, particularly when the location is the idyllic Berowra Waters Inn. Having been on the list to try for many years, we were delighted to accept an invitation to experience the venue and modern Australian menu the restaurant is well-known for. With a […]
Bianca: Celebrating a recent 30th, I thought I’d surprise the old ball and chain to a weekend away. Mostly everything in my life revolves around food but sometimes I like to slow things down and enjoy the quiet life. Step in Cedars Cottages Kangaroo Valley. Our perfect home away from home. But before we made our […]

Bianca: As we have gotten older, celebrating birthdays with a family meal out at a nice restaurant has taken precedence over a gift. Which has really fit in nicely with our never-ending mission to eat all of Sydney. Alex has had to endure quite a bit as the baby of the family, mainly from me […]

This one is long overdue. Eros in Sydney’s Potts Point offers typical Greek cuisine and transports you to Mykonos in the Mediterranean Sea, granted it was via the Westconnex 🙂 Situated in the old Crane Bar site, Eros has been beautifully fit-out with concrete booth seats and a neutral cream colour scheme. Joining me was […]
