Hit up Mary’s in Newtown again. Cheeseburger with added bacon, so good. Double dipping fries into that mash. SO GOOD!

First stop: 212 Blu in Newtown.

Chai and Coffee. Grey cups for a grey (and rainy) day.

I went for the Boss One Hander; Shaved leg ham, poached egg and slaw. Delish!

Next stop: Carriageworks in Redfern.

Christian Boltanski’s massive installation “Chance”.

Slow Jazz and chills at Cornerstone Bar & Food within Carriageworks. Loved the building, couldn’t help but dream of a similar space for Zen Garage.

Next stop: White Rabbit Gallery in Chippendale.

Such an impressive building, really loved the show too.

The place was dead, but the whole mall and surrounds are nice actually, loved the Melbourne/Japan/community vibes.

Next Stop: Watsons Bay. The sun finally came out in the afternoon so Jess and I headed straight to the water.

The Hotel was packed so we settled for Doyles on the pier. Sydney Rock Oysters, fish, scallops, bliss!

Next Stop: Messina! Coconut Lychee’s my thing.

When we got back to Jess’ place her flatmate and friends were about to get anhialated on this vodka infused watermelon!

And Jess was in the mood to bake a Black Star Bakery Strawberry and Watermelon cake (SO good!).
My Mum’s B’day falls on Australia Day every year and we usually celebrate it with lots of booze and a BBQ, but plans fell through this year as my nephew Leo isn’t well.
Jess didn’t have anything planned so we hooked up and had a spontaneous day of rummaging around Sydney, which turned out to be a great big day out!

Fender bar stool were a nice touch!

Crispy and soft polenta chunks, served with gorgonzola sauce.

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty.
Nanami took Krysti and I to Vasco tonight, an awesome little bar on Cleveland st. Walking into the place was like a time warp to high school/uni days. Basically looked like my bedroom! We’re talking Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Sonic Youth!!!! My eyes couldn’t settle! Loved the atmosphere, cocktails and food were good too!

Fattoush! Best salad Ive had in a while.
Ved’s housemate Sam cooked an amazing Lebanese BBQ last night for Ved’s B’day. Food coma. Was epic, such a mad treat!
I’ve driven past this little cafe many times, but have never bothered to park up and give it a go until this morning. Plenty of of street parking, cute fit-out, great vibes and the food was delish!

Miso Good. Highly reccommend the cold Honey Green Tea, literally tastes like melted down green tea icecream!

Black Star Pastry Rosebery. Love the spacious, high ceiling space.

Love a good pie. Jess and I shared a lamb shank and red wine pie as well as a beef brisket pie.

Forget the so so chocolate cake in the background, the strawberry thing was where it was at.
Finally got to his shop just up the road from me in Waverly. It’s so close! Will have to visit some more for sure!
