Vanessa: As someone who steers well clear of chilli, the fiery dishes of the Indian-influenced Malaysian cuisine can be somewhat intimidating. On this particular Saturday afternoon, however, I was prepared to roll up my sleeves and embrace the heat. The reason being that we (Team FFS) had been invited to dine at PappaRich Australia’s Chatswood […]
Alex: Rapidly becoming one of the most hyped and talked about places in the inner west, Brewtown Newtown offers a rustic and well thought out dining area/cafe that seems to have a never ending amount of people frolicking to get in. The decision to come here was based solely on comparing their Cronuts to the […]
Bianca: Yes, Bianca was craving burgers again. It’s a regular occurrence. Honestly if I could never leave the house and have a combination of Taylor Kitsch and Alexander Skarsgard bring me AND feed me cheeseburgers I totally would!! Recently ‘Ribs & Burgers’ opened a store attached to the Rhodes shopping centre and with ‘burger’ in […]
Bianca: I have one of those traditional lovely, old school Nonna’s that usually don’t leave the house unless it’s for church or family occasions. But the past few years as we’ve gotten older we like to take the old girl on a few ‘excursions’. My Nonno like my brother isn’t particularly adventurous with his food, […]
Bianca: Dining options in the Home-bush/Newington area, generally leave a lot to be desired. Being the recent purchaser of an apartment in the neighbouring Wentworth point, I wanted to scope the area out for any potential local café to be my new ‘haunt’. Rocking up this rainy Saturday afternoon the place was incredibly busy indoors, […]
Christmas in an Italian household is a production bordering on the ridiculous, with food lining every available bench and table space and close to 20 relatives descending on the ‘chosen’ location of the year. Christmas this year, was at our parents place. Our usual routine for Christmas is lunch/ dessert (depending on fullness) fat-nap/dinner/dessert We […]
GUEST POST: Manny: As a FFS spouse, I’m generally on the other side of these posts. Cooking is my passion, and as an owner of a full size spit, a mini spit and multiple BBQs, you could say I have a love for meat and fire. So you can imagine my excitement when I was […]
Vanessa: Attention all cheese lovers – this post is for you! I was very excited to have finally been to the Paesanella Café and Food Emporium – which is now definitely up there as a favourite on my list. Paesanella’s name is synonymous with cheese production in Australia and in particular their multi-award winning ricotta, […]

Bianca: I have always had a weakness for Indian food, granted my version of Indian may very well be the bastardised Western take – Butter Chickens, Vindaloo’s, Korma’s all eaten with a big piece of cheese Naan of course. ‘The Colonial’ have three restaurants in Sydney, one in Darlinghurst, Neutral Bay and Leichhardt which is […]
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 […]
