The Bar at the End of the Wharf is just that – a bar at the end of the wharf. If you like a quiet, casual and open establishment boasting the best Sydney Harbour views, then head towards The Bar at the End of the Wharf in Walsh Bay. Although the establishment is known for…

Where can you get the best Chai Tea?…Kettletown | Shopping
Lily Wang and Vincent Maneno, business owners of Kettletown have something brewing, and it’s a bit different. I first met Lily at a workshop that taught us how to make old fashioned calendars from sticky fabric paper (long story, but if you want to read about it, here’s the review) at a pop up store…
Anvil Coffee Co | Kirribilli
On the day I was at Anvil Coffee Co, was the day the building I work in was evacuated due to a major fire on the construction site next door at Barangaroo, Sydney CBD and consequently, intense smoke infiltrated our offices and our airways. Everyone was basically sent home until further notice. So taking the…
Rustic Pearl café | Surry Hills
Surry Hills, you little charmer. When you step into Rustic Pearl café, it’s like stepping into a well lived-in tiny home of someone with fine taste and meticulous style, and with service that complements the welcoming warmth of a good friend. Location and Ambience Bits and pieces of odds and sods of what appears to…
Reuben Hills café | Surry Hills
I have small confession. I can’t drink. Give me a chilli or two (with seeds and all), and I can eat that no problem. Give me a glass of wine or a half and I’m gone. I hear my Caucasian buddies ask incredulously: “Are you serious? You really had a hang over from half a…

Whilst it’s located at the heart of the city on a busy street, I never looked twice at the place before. The signage of the establishment…

Brickfields Bakery and Café | Chippendale
Who likes the smell and taste of fresh bread? After a wet morning’s ride with the guys at Sydney Architecture Walks on Sunday, we stopped for a lunch break at Brickfields, a bakery and café located on the corner of Cleveland Street and a no-through road called Balfour Street in Chippendale. It was crowded at…
Alimentari Cafe & Deli | Paddington
Some people know of Paddington Alimentari as an Italian deli stocked with meats, cheese, breads, olive oil, sauces, pasta and anything else that’s Italian. I know of Paddington Alimentari as a place to get great coffee and hazelnut biscotti. I saw this tiny establishment once I reached the end of William Street, Paddington after boutique…
The Espresso Room | Mosman
Are you around the Cremorne or Mosman area in Sydney’s Lower North Share? Then head to The Espresso Room for good coffee and wholesome bircher muesli. You’ll only stumble this little gem in the Lower North Shore if a local in the area tells you about it. Read my Weekend Notes review.
