Vanessa: Growing up in the north shore suburb of Forestville, my childhood memories of eating out consisted of a fisherman’s basket from the local fish & chip shop and sizzling Mongolian lamb from the one and only Chinese restaurant. Fast forward 20 years and the suburbs of Sydney are now offering up a variety of […]
Vanessa: Growing up in Sydney’s north shore, trips to the northern beaches were frequent. Having moved from the area, these trips are few and far between however we recently visited a place that might see us return more often. The Collaroy, which is facing Collaroy beach, boasts fantastic views over the water making it the […]
Bianca: This trip was many months in the making. Myself and pocket rocket Joyce, had planned our weekend away, gorging on some of WA’s best produce and dining in some fantastic restaurants. It was a whirlwind 5 days and we jam-packed as much as we could possibly get away with…both time-wise and stomach wise. This […]
Alex: Planning our dining experience at Bennelong felt like it was a long time in the making! We had obviously seen a lot of our friends put up posts and instagram shots of the sausage roll and the cheese toastie but at that stage we hadn’t really seen much of the a la carte ‘restaurant’ menu showcased. […]
Bianca: A quaint retro café banging out modern Middle Eastern inspired café dishes? Welcome to ‘Plunge No. 46’. An interesting menu is generally a sure-fire way to get me in the front door, especially when it pertains to breakfast/lunch. I just can’t possibly look at another avocado on toast dish or baked eggs. Zzzzzzzzzz. Enter […]
Bianca: So I have now become one of those ridiculous people who will travel for food, luckily I have a pretty obliging social circle that allow me to dictate nearly every food movement that is made. Which is why we found ourselves at Miss America’s Diner in Riverwood one rainy Friday eve. Situated just opposite […]
Bianca: With gorgeous views overlooking Freshwater beach and Queenscliff bay, it’s easy to see why Pilu at Freshwater, a popular two hatted restaurant has become a staple in the fine dining world of the Northern beaches. Drawing hordes across the bridge, Giovanni Pilu has become a champion for modern Italian/Australian food with an emphasis on […]
Vanessa: We at For Foods Sake are lovers of both wine and cheese. When the opportunity arose to road test the ‘Fromage to You’ degustation at Abode Bistro Bar , needless to say the excitement levels were high. Abode has created a bespoke cheese and wine degustation for the Good Food Month throughout October (although we […]
Bianca: A casual sister restaurant to Alessandro Pavoni’s chef hatted ‘Ormeggio’ and with stunning views right up Middle Harbour. ‘Chiosco by Ormeggio’ makes for a casual yet upmarket space for a leisurely lunch, special occasion or any old regular meal. To ease Alex back into the Sydney world after his European adventure, mum and I […]
Vanessa: Is there any nicer way to break up the working week than spending an evening waterside, beverage in hand and good food before you? I think not! On this particular mid-week venture, team For Foods Sake was invited to dine at Criniti’s Woolloomooloo. Set on the restaurant-lined finger wharf, Criniti’s offers traditional Italian fair […]

Bianca: In an effort to placate my friends and offer them up something other than my favourite thing in the world (THE BURGER) I booked us in for a ladies Saturday lunch at ‘Orto Trading Co’. It was a particularly chilly day with speckles of sunlight, so we braved the elements and sat outside. It’s […]
