  • Tuk Chop, Canberra Airport

    If I had known there were only 3 food stops at the Canberra Airport terminal, I would have had a proper dinner elsewhere given all the time I had before the 8 pm flight back to Sydney. I thought about protesting at the airport by going on a hunger strike, until I had a closer…

  • Dumpling King Chinese Restaurant, Newtown

    A place that dares to call itself Dumpling King sounds worthy of a visit from the dumpling queen (that’s me). Well, if nothing else, it certainly sounded like a good dinner option out of the many in Newtown after our film tonight. The Chinese restaurant was quite dark and cramped inside, but the dumpling queen…

  • Chefs Gallery, Regent Place, Town Hall

    A long overdue catchup dinner with bestest of friends Ellis and a proper revisit at Chefs Gallery Town Hall, with pictures this time! I first came here in Feb 2014 and again two months later in Apr 2014, and really quite enjoyed my meals. I was glad the friend chose this as the venue. We…

  • Din Tai Fung, Westfield Miranda

We’d been talking about trying this new Westfield Miranda branch, and tonight was…

  • Opera Kitchen, Sydney Opera House

    We only had half an hour before the performance at the Sydney Opera House and I still needed to pick up our tickets from the box office. We needed food now, right now! We headed straight for the Opera Kitchen at the lower concourse of the iconic concert hall. The Kitchen serves a variety of…

  • Billy’s Chinese Kitchen, Club Redfern (Nov 2014)

    Three months later, another contractor staff is leaving us for another country and we had another farewell lunch at Club Redfern. It’s still Billy’s Kitchen serving Chinese food there, but they’re clearly a lot more organised this time round, with digital menu boards set up and all (which all have the text “meal contains m.s.g”…

  • Din Tai Fung, Central Park, Chippendale

    I love dumplings. If there were no health repercussions, I could quite possibly literally eat hundreds of steamed or boiled dumplings every day. During our July trip in Hong Kong, we went to a dumpling place, Din Tai Fung (鼎泰豐), to discover that they had branches in Sydney. We decided that since I love dumplings…
