All photos by Sarahlianhan We’re back at Yang & Co, almost a year later. It is a little far, clocking in just over an hour from where I live via public transport. But on this occasion, we’ve all piled into Jeff’s car, like the …

Saint Peter, Paddington (Brunch)
I love sea urchin. I could probably end this restaurant review at that because I’m fairly sure I make a song and dance about sea urchin (or uni if you prefer) often enough that you know the routine. It’s also the sole reason I was …
Kensington Street Social, Chippendale
If my insane birthday week didn’t already show it, I do believe birthday celebrations always call for a little something special. That’s why tonight we find ourselves checking out the next newest restaurant on colourful Kensington Street for my dining partner’s birthday. Kensington Street Social …

Sepia
A couple of days ago A few weeks ago, mum and I got to dine at the long anticipated Sepia. Apparently mum had recommended Sepia to me years ago but in my usual state of selective hearing, I never actually took on her suggestion until …
ARIA
As one of my welcome back to Sydney dinners, a bunch of us friends, family and family friends, got together for a quick lunch on Thursday. I usually would have class but thank god for tutorials that only start in Week 2, as ARIA was …
