[invite] Bianca: New to the city CBD is Secolo Dining. An interesting Italian restaurant serving a modern Aussie/Italo breakfast menu, which then makes way for a focus on Southern Italian dishes. With both Sicilian & Ischian blood pulsing through these FFS veins we were particularly excited to dive in. Even more so when we spied Francesco Spataro behind […]
Alex: Sydney has been captivated by the Gelato scene for quite some time now, most notably for places like Gelato Messina, Cow and the moon, RivaReno, and Gelatomassi but the trends seem to remain quite similar. Stix Deserts in Surry Hills has completely recreated and turned on its head how we eat Gelato in an […]
Bianca: New York, the city that never sleeps. Whilst the allure of the big city, bright lights, and vibrant café culture beckoned us to the Big Apple, visiting family was the major reason we headed to the East coast. Staying in New Jersey for two weeks with family over Christmas and New Year’s was an extraordinarily […]
[invite] Bianca: A stalwart in Double Bay, 21 Espresso is a notorious spot for the movers and shakers of the Sydney elite.

Attica – Melbourne Bianca: In terms of fine dining around the world I have a ways to go, Alex and Vanessa have both made it a point to visit a few Michelin starred restaurants on their travels. I’ve yet to have the pleasure but I have made a decent crack in the Australian fine-dining scene. But […]

Bianca: The restaurant/ café scene in Concord has definitely lifted its game the last 10 years or so, with cuisines ranging from Italian, Thai, Japanese, Lebanese and French in the form of ‘Antoine’s Grill’. This marks my 5th visit, meaning this quaint suburban restaurant must be onto a good thing because I love to mix things […]
[invite] Bianca: The Butler has quietly been chugging along in Potts Point for a few years now. It’s continually been one of my favourite restaurants and it constantly appears in any ‘date night’ suggestions list I’m ever asked for. A breezy, gorgeously renovated terrace style building with literal, million dollar views across the city skyline. Descending […]
fineVanessa: Is there a better way to pass time on a 42 degree November day than sitting wharf side with a crisp sauvignon blanc in hand and dining on fresh seafood? The answer is probably “yes inside with the aircon on” but nonetheless my friend and I spent a good part of the afternoon at Manta Restaurant […]
Bianca: We’re always on the hunt for those wonderful hidden gems. We do enjoy our North West explorations, as Alex and I lived the first 15 years of our lives in the Hills area. So it’s always very trippy when we revisit. Fig Coffee House, sits adjacent to Mother Earth Nursery (we recommend popping in, we picked […]
Bianca: It was a chilly Thursday eve when Madre and I made a beeline for Ippudo in the city CBD. This was our second visit, the first being for mum’s birthday last year. Now it’s become somewhat of a celebratory place/meal. I bought a bra in David Jones earlier…..so I guess we were celebrating that? […]
