After a long day walking it was a relief to be able to kick back with some good food, good views and a good coffee. The food at Megalong tea room is honest and home made style rather than modern cafe style which you expect back in Sydney. As a result, it’s a great throwback to what country style food could be like. If I’m in the area, I’ll definitely come back as this sort of comfort food is exactly what you need after a long walk in the bush.

At first glance, Cafe ish is a smallish joint located in a quiet area of Surry Hills. It serves Japanese/Australian fusion cuisine. However what differentiates this place from every other Modern fusion restaurant is that the chef attempts to recapture the past and incorporate it into “now” dishes, creating a more traditional Australian/Japanese fusion. Proof of Cafe-ish’s propensity towards traditonal Australian cuisine is depicted in Josh’s (chef) choice of utilising archaic but abundant ingredients, such as Kangaroo, Crocodile, and native bush berries and herbs.
