Degustation
Becasse Chef’s Table, Sydney CBD
The first thing I realise when we arrive at the Chef’s Table in Becasse is that the table really is set in the middle of the action. We’re set a mere meter away from the induction stove tops and have front row seats for the plating station where the man himself, Justin North is putting the final touches on some dishes before sending them out.
Wasted Pop-Up, Darlinghurst
It’s a random tweet that brings the Wasted Pop-Up to my attention, but the moment I’ve read the details on the Wasted website I’m fascinated by the concept and have booked in for Astroboy and myself almost before she’s even agreed to come with me.
Blancharu, Elizabeth Bay
F managed to surprise me for our anniversary by taking me to Blancharu – a restaurant that’s been on my to-eat list for the longest time.
Berowra Waters Inn, Berowra Waters
I’m slowly drifting away from being able to call myself ‘mid 20′s’. I’m trying to hang on to it as long as possible, I still get asked for ID at the bottle shop which is a good sign right? To celebrate this new chapter known as mid to late twenties, I recently went to visit Berowra Waters Inn.
Restaurant Arras, Walsh Bay
Amazing bread and even more stupendous range of petit fours, oh and the food is just as amazing.
Restaurant Balzac, Randwick
I was pleasantly surprised one day to see a 2-for-1 dinner offer from Restaurant Balzac for F’s and my birthday month. The offer was too hard to resist and before long, we found ourselves seated upstairs and in eager anticipation of this season’s degustation.
Vue de Monde, Melbourne CBD
I’ve heard so much about Vue de Monde; every time I go to Melbourne and not have at least dropped by Bistro Vue, I get a pitying look and a consolatory pat. Well, pity looks and consolatory pats no more! I’ve finally dined at Vue de Monde… and boy, have I ever been missing out!
