  • Little Haveli, Broadway (Ultimo)

    March 30, 2011

    2 Comments

    Little Haveli on Urbanspoon Little Haveli is a simple Indian restaurant with a straightforward menu and basic decor. While it’s not a place to go ‘out’ for dinner, I’ll definitely be ordering in from Little Haveli in the future – the food is good value and yummy! Continue reading →

    Grasshopper on Urbanspoon

    Nom Nom Pom had been telling me about Grasshopper for months, and we recently had the opportunity to try it out. It is hidden down a laneway. It is a small bar. It is unusual for Sydney. That’s all I’ll say. (I refuse to use the M- word in this post, so overused!!) Continue reading →

  • The Essential Ingredient, Rozelle

    March 16, 2011

    5 Comments

    While gathering ingredients for our Tetsuya dinner the other week, I had to make a trip to The Essential Ingredient in Rozelle. And while there I had to take my mum for coffee. It was excellent coffee, as you’d expect from a place so dedicated to olfactory delights. Continue reading →

  • Essen Restaurant and Beer Cafe, Ultimo

    Essen Restaurant & Beer Cafe on UrbanspoonA restaurant which serves a variety of local and imported beers, deep-fried camembert and eight kinds of schnitzel? That’s a Mr Black kind of place. So I took him along to Essen using a Jump On It voucher, and to my surprise, I liked it so much I took another friend there a month later! Continue reading →

  • Yum cha at The Dynasty, Canterbury Leagues Club, Belmore

    March 15, 2011

    3 Comments

    The Dynasty on UrbanspoonAnother Sunday, another yum cha. This weekend we decided to take my step-dad to yum cha at Canterbury Leagues Club in Belmore, near where I work. Despite having worn forbidden footwear, I was allowed in eventually after swapping my lovely, clean, dainty Havaianas for a pair of my step-dad’s velcro strappy sandals. Which looked ridiculous, but at least the bouncers would let me in. (Such a stupid, archaic rule!) Continue reading →

    Hung Cheung Chinese Seafood on Urbanspoon

    Now that Mr Black has fallen in love with yum cha, we have been going at least once a month. Happy days! There’s no better way to start a lazy day than sipping tea and taking a chance on the yum cha trolley roulette (or ‘tray’ roulette in this case). Continue reading →

  • Tetsuya Degustation Dinner

    March 7, 2011

    7 Comments

    Recently, my good friend Chef Al and I had the opportunity to meet my favourite chef, Tetsuya Wakuda. We were so inspired by the simplicity of his dishes that we decided to hold a degustation dinner of our own for some special lady-friends. Each lady-friend brought along a wine to match one of the courses plus a stinky cheese to help round off the night. Continue reading →

    Let's Eat on Urbanspoon Fantastic, authentic, cheap and sophisticated Thai in the Inner West – huzzah! We’ve been waiting for you, Let’s Eat!
